In what world are mass produced cars not depreciating assets?

When self driving software kicks in that allows them to generate revenue.

I have a lot of confidence in our hero to make terrible financial decisions, but he is going to have a difficult time beating his history on NIO.

There is a little something for everyone in the first 9k posts of this thread. I am thinking about offering our hero a ride to and from the boat on friday in exchange for some behind the scene scoopage (what made him think buying a TSLA was smart, a Q&A about his finances because I still can't wrap my head around the debt, etc.)

Explain how people would pay less to buy an asset that generates revenue than one that doesn't.

this whole thread now feels like an elaborate troll where OP just keeps upping the stakes

I totally did not see it coming, but at least it explains why he did not tell his wife about punting $60K

I mean, my father makes about $150K/year, he was recently debating whether a series 3 purchase made sense for him and ultimately decided against it, OP makes like $20K/year and with no hesitation ships twice the amount to Elon

the selfishness is so off the charts it's almost impressive

I would say he needs some kind of intervention, but he already gets that every day in this thread. Guy needs to go see a doctor or something, seems to be self destructing badly.

How much debt does he have? His only income in 1/2 NLH, he's underrolled, he just lost 70k, his wife has no idea, and now he buys a tesla?

How is this going to end well...

If you bought a boat without a motor you would expect the value of the boat to depreciate over time. However, if you bought a motor for the boat and started renting it to people the value would go up (because of your investment of the motor), but the boat would continue to depreciate as wear and tear built up and because newer and better boats were being built which made less people want to buy your boat.

Is TSLA planning on giving away software to all current TSLA owners that will turn their current TSLA isn't self-driving cars?

This is of course pending on several conditions but let's say it happens, value would go up compared to what OP paid today.

Please let this entire thread be some kind of troll. I mean on this forum you have 6betme (your typical casino fish), the guy who is the biggest online loser in history (at nl2) and a man who just dumped 60k in stocks and bought a Tesla. All 3 have to be trolls. I refuse to believe there are this many morons on one forum.

Stop trying to conflate the two ideas, you just sound ridiculous to anyone who knows anything about this

If we're assuming everything posted is 100% truthful, the only logical conclusion is that Rayz hit some sort of BBJ or slot jackpot recently.

I haven't read the whole thread but seems like he's run too good to realize being underrolled is playing russian roulette. Maybe his "faith" is getting in the way of reason.

I'm guessing he was joking. I'm pretty sure he said previously that he would never buy a new car.

I don’t think our hero plays slots and his casino doesn’t do a BBJ (they do a mini version I think but I want to say that is like $5k).

He said he’d never buy a new car, but he’s also talked a lot about buying a TSLA. You saw the screenshot of the text he posted, right?

He may have done it, but screenshots and texts can be easily faked as a joke.
