they're not wildly expensive though as far as supercars go, owning a bugatti or something is a very very big dream

I know a few people who are in their 20's with lambos (seems to be the choice for younger people) who made an absolute fortune through crypto

I personally never believed in it then and still don't so have no regrets about not buying

i was about to buy a black manual one from joe macari 10 years ago which was on for £52k i seem to remember. Would have been late 20's

Worked out about a grand a month on the tick.

my misses said she would leave me, so i didnt. looking back would have been a stupid idea.

And still no update of how it was achieved wink
A wise person here advised me all those years ago that if I find something that makes money to not post it on a forum!
Anyway my advice is find something you're interested in, look for something that already exists that you already use and ask yourself how you can innovate and make it better. If you design a product or make something that solves an issue better than something out there that's a good step. That or selling commodities. I did both of those things 🙏🏽
I am yet to decide if i post which businesses I am involved in as for me its about sharing my love for my Childhood dream the Lamborghini Gallardo.

It really depends what else you want too. Do you want to have a nice house, family AND the car or are you just after car and happy to live at home and not have much spare cash.

I'm not at Lambo level but my Lotus Emira cost £70k. Only took me 35 years to get there and even then, it is a huge amount of money for me but I am at the point where life has been too short for some friends and family members and so it was 'now or never'.

This original post was from 10 years a go.
I was young and certainly naive, dreaming about a Lamborghini forgetting other adult responsibilities that would exist as I was just living at home with my parents at the time I posted this.
I created a product better than something out there that existed as i noticed a gap in the market and I also buy and sell commodities.
Cold Calling, knocking on doors and grafting hard since I was 17.
There is no easy way, especially in this day and age.
You just need to work hard and focus on what you do.
If you work hard in any industry you can make money.
To achieve a Lamborghini it took 10+ years of relentless dedication day in and day out and I showed up everyday regardless of how I felt.

You're a very angry human with negative comments.
I have read all of your hate and sly digs but chose not to reply to them.
Are you not able to conceptualise that it's possible to buy a Lamborghini without selling drugs or selling online courses?
I saw in 2015 you were hoping to have your Lamborghini before you were 30... how's that going?
Honestly I hope you find happiness in your life as hating on a public forum on someone celebrating their childhood dream achieved is a pretty low bar mate.

The sad thing is the original thread was titled "how do I ever afford a Gallardo"

You afforded one but didn't say how except "commodities"

But well done on the achievement even if it's all a bit smoke and mirrors.

Wow, didn't notice how old the thread was but well done. As most of us know, you get one by working hard. It's that simple.

Did you get the other things I mentioned too, like your own place?

Yes but the replies today aren't and that's what I'm interested in, potential custard test etc

Well done op. Nice positive story. About cars as well! This forum is getting more and more negative/ hostile so it’s nice to see.
