Back when he began his business, he wanted to build something special for car lovers. He thought it would be cool to rent cars to the kind of guys who celebrate their 50th birthdays and want to drive around in a Lamborghini for a day.
Or he dreamed of renting a stylish Porsche to the man getting married to make his wedding more memorable.
“Unfortunately, that’s not where the money is,” he said. “It’s way too easy to make a killing off renting to the people who are trying to flex, which is why I expanded into renting yachts, houses, and watches.”
Several months back, one client rented out his Ferrari 488 and then shared a post on social media of him in the car, along with $1,000 in dollar bills.
This guy then left the receipt from his ATM withdrawal in the Ferrari, which proved he had $40 left in his bank account after taking that $1,000 out to make the post.
It made him feel terrible for this man.
“No amount of flexing on Instagram is going to fill whatever void you’re trying to fill,” he continued. “Just a reminder that everything you see online is extremely fake, and unfortunately, that’s now expanded into the real world, too.”
What do you think about that?
