Now I am not only jealous of the tools, I am jealous of the six Heinekens that you are drinking. I think all I have in the fridge right now is MGD. Again, congrats on the tools.

Hey, So the guy got a lot of money from what I assume was a tragic event (I could be wrong) thats not worth any money to me. My friend lost his father from a medical accident and only got a fraction of what you got. The key here is the guy is learning that he spent too much, lets move on from there.

Also, it doesn't take school to make money, it only takes hard work and a good idea (of course some capitial doesn't hurt either). I know a high school drop out create a hardwood flooring company in south jersey and now he makes over a million per year. It can be done. I do agree with some of the responses, spend your money wisely and you should be good for life. Just look at these ex rap stars and sports players who had it all and now have nothing.

Jeff

The guy who created Fed-Ex dropped out of college. Now he's a billionaire tenfold. Meanwhile, the rest of us have to go to school and make money the hard way. Props to those who find the easy way out, I'm always lookin for it myself. 2.7mil would set up me for life.

On the other hand, I had a snap on air saw that worked well for a few years, but finally came to its death. No replacement for that one. 110 dollars later I had a new one. Oh well. Thats racing!
Unfortunately what you say used to be true but is no longer. The hand tools are guaranteed the others are not....i.e., torque wrenches. You break, you fix. Ask me how I know.

If you are only making 90k off interest you need to seriously talk to a intelligent financial consultant. I can refer you to one that will make you twice that per year, or more. Better invest wisely now while you can or you will be broke in 10 years at this rate.

Wow I didn't know this post was still up! Well I could care less if people don't think I have what I do! I didn't start this post to talk about money, i just liked my tool set! Well As of 1/2/05 the tool set isn't growing, as I want to start building a 2,000sqft. barn, escalade is in the shop under the knife, My 4wheel is being tuned for the lake races, CamaroSS is at Livernois and running but no pulls let. And my black 92" camaro is apart and in my other garage by my house!

I did get my *** kicked on taxes as the taxes on my other house due and having 3 cars in the shops can be costly. I as I do every end of the year learn a little more about money thius time of year. People on here that make more than 100k a year know! I will be fine.

so if you don't believe me ok (this is the internet more than 50% of people as full of it) but I am not! Thanks guy and the Dyno numbers and mybe a vedio or two will be in the FI forum soon I hope and when it is done on Livernois's web site. As it can already be seen on my site and livernois now.

So now that htis post has been up forever, are you tools still sitting exactly where they were when you got them, or do some actually have grease on them?!

Props on the tool set man, be smart with your money. (By smart I mean, Russian mail order bride, booze, chicks, parties, tools, cars, etc etc. Make sure to get a prenup if you get marrried, don't want a woman taking half. lol)

Tools are very clean but used every day! As for the chicks and booze. I am well known at a few local Strip clubs! And I already share my money with my G/F of 7years. She isn't a money stealing or anything like that. Hell she always tells me to save and no buy so much.
