I bet the OP has a beard and some VERY white teef.
I doubt it judging by his presumed age He’s gone well and chased his dream, fair play,
Even better to do it in a country with a semblance of trying to look after everybody as the U.K. does, that makes the success all the more real.

What does buy and sell commodities actually mean?
I mean I get it if you work for Goldman Sachs and your parents gave you one of those little rings to wear on your little finger.
But for someone in their 20's who dresses like that? Are we talking day trading?
Won’t mention specifics but I think there was enough in the initial post, that if you wanted to you would be able to find out the commodities were tea, coffee and spices. I mean I get it if you work for Goldman Sachs and your parents gave you one of those little rings to wear on your little finger.

Most of us at our ages could sell a house and have a supercar but we don't (because that would be stupid) and neither has the OP. He has a house and a supercar and is young. Well done that lad.

Have a read of that thread and if you still don't see what I'm talking about, then fair enough.

OP HERE! - crazy look back at this post when i was dreaming all those years a go.
I was 16 in 2013 when my dream Lamborghini was released. I asked myself how will i ever achieve this goal to one day owning one. With only 4 remaining in this colour RHD in the UK I knew my chances were slim let alone making the money to buy it. However call it fate or luck but 9 days after my daughter was born Tom Hartley had one for sale & I was not ready to buy it. As you can imagine obviously it sold instantly. Fast forward a few months and I see another red Gallardo perf being serviced at a garage near me! I went and asked if the owner would sell they told me he will NEVER sell!
I thought another one would not come up for a long time and my chances to own one were going to be impossible. Then at night a few weeks ago I was checking all over the internet to find one as usual and there it is! A Rosso Mars Gallardo in a beautiful spec listed for auction! I knew I had to act quickly and before the car even went live I made an offer as a serious buyer - sold some investments and got the finance together to purchase it from a great man called Will in his 70s. Untouched with less than 500miles put on the car in 9 years hidden away in his personal collection
I can now proudly say I am the owner of a Lamborghini Gallardo Performante Edizone Technica finished in the one and ONLY colour for me Rosso Mars.

Looks like a few have been checking askMID too.
OP can remove any doubts with a few simple further photos. He’s doing the mileage as he says he’s put 350 on in the last week, so could give us some shots in the wild, or some interior ones. New photos will either show those heaping praise was well placed, or the lack of show those questioning the authenticity to have some substance.

Careful. You'll be accused of being jealous or something.
Well I'm not a cat so I think I'll be able to bear the slings and arrows if they materialise 
Misspaced plates are a bit of an anathema for me so always curious about the car they sit on.

Maybe the plate has been changed and the website database not updated? https://motorscan.co.uk/reg-check/LP57O

That old adage seems true of too many on here.
It s one of the reasons the US has a much higher living standard than the UK.
does the US have a much higher living standard? I have no idea, but thought they didn't. UK seems to have gone down since Brexit (might be unrelated, but even in London it seems like the situation had deteriorated over the last decade or so).That old adage seems true of too many on here.
