Everyone's Favorite Rugg

As of around 6:30am this morning, Neil and I have entered a business enterprise together. I funded the purchase of a 1994 Pontiac Grand Prix with just shy of 190,000 miles on it for $500. I actually told him if he could get it for less than the $500, then he could keep the difference. Anyway, it is in pretty good shape with a good interior and a decent exterior. It drives pretty good and has a blown headgasket. The plan is to have Neil fix the headgasket (he has been dabbling in auto mechanics for years) and then use his mega-supa-amazing sales skillz to sell it for an otherworldly profit (which we would then split.) Hopefully Neil can get the headgasket done in less than 3 months (how long it took me to change the one on my Toyota) and hopefully, he can make the headgasket actually seal (something my 3 months of labor failed to do to the Toyota.)
If we manage to successfully navigate the wide world of financial investment in used cars without someone getting screwed or losing all the money to the whims of the moment, the plan is to reinvest the profits into the next big project and continue on towards the quest to worldwide domination of the used car market.

Wish us luck.

I've heard of flipping houses - but flipping cars is a new take on things. Sounds good though. Good luck.
