    Lololol yeah I hear that. I guess I've kinda tried lotsa ways to be happy, as a way to put it. I've made good money and spent it on me and that was cool, but un fulfilling big time. When I'm making good money, I love spending it and doing things for a woman, like if married and stuff. I dunno, as a man I felt good about seeing that she had the best of stuff... Like in could say her ass never touched anything other than leather since she married me, etc that type of dumb BS Lolol:rofl:so that's having money and spending it on SO - feelsgoodman.jpg
    But I definitely lacked and didn't fulfill the emotional and that end of stuff. I learned so much when I got honest and straight with myself and owned my shit
    It sounds like we have similar experiences and learning curves and life stuff and stuff:oops:
    I definitely don't take life too seriously

    Well, you were taught to value women, and more importantly, your significant other.

    I'm the exact same way; she would have a better phone, nicer car....oh wait that's the situation now even though we're not officially together :rofl::rofl::rofl:

    But yeah, money doesn't bring fulfillment. I can find that when surrounding myself with those who are important to me.

    Be honest though, how much absolutely useless bullshit does your dealer auto frontload that you have to hide or gloss over every time you finish a sale.

    Absolutely honest?

    Nothing.

    All our vehicles only have a window sticker and that's it, no mark up, nothing added.

    We use Docupad via Reynolds and Reynolds for contracting and everything is fully disclosed; there's even a disclosure just to continue before we even start any documents.

    Please review the updated COC.
    The political discussions get you a 30 day vacation.

    Thanks everyone. Tonight is a freebie. We want you to have fun with all your friends on TW, except for a few simple rules.

    Have a good night.

    @Speedytech7

    You work at a dealership; you better than others here can ask me anything you'd like to challenge that statement by the way.

    When it gets busy, or if a sales manager has called in sick, or worse, quit like one just did almost 2 weeks ago, I end up desking deals as well.

    The best sales managers were previously in finance; we know how to get deals bought and which way to go about things.

    Here's a few from the summit...my dad and I did it back in 2017 for his 60th birthday. Was a fucking grueling hike lol. 21 miles total starting from just above the town of Lone Pine to the top of Whitney.

    Looking out from the top over Death Valley you're seeing the lowest point in the US from the highest point in the contiguous US. Pretty awe inspiring

    I believe this. Back in 90s at the dealership it was very NOT transparent. Dealer pulled lots of funny stuff. But now with the internets and so much competition, good dealers know they need to and do operate transparently. Wouldn't surprise me at all. A lot of sales stuff had to go this way in last decade or two

    I would much rather have driven my truck up there if it were possible...probably told my dad that 100 times over the course of the hike. He's an avid hiker, I'm an avid...driver

    Badass.

    I haven't been backpacking since January 2019 with the SO; I need to go somewhere already

    That fucking view is amazing.
