New guy here, proud owner of a Yellow/black 360 Spyder

I'll apologize if I'm wrong but I am pretty sure of what we have here:



BUSTED!

I finally got my own 360 too. Being 24 with a Ferrari is such an honor. I went and got a license plate that read CEO ATT just so I wouldn't have to explain it to anyone anymore that I run a Fortune 500 company.

I put a Capristo on it though, so I don't know about the Tubi's.

 

Hey, that's Tim's ride!!! LOL!! Wonder if Retiredage21 has an explanation for claiming he's 21, but profile shows a birthdate of Nov. 18, 1984???

 

So, it was a file photo. Can't wait to see your pics. Yellow is great color for 360

 

You know, your nickname is only good for another few months...

 

Fair enough. However, there are some here that are going to expect to see some pics of your car. Hopefully no one will do the car, registration, today's newspaper thing but it's been done before.

Anyways, to put some of the questions to rest, what's with your username? And we'd probably like to hear something more than "it's self explanatory."

 

How can you have a cigar business before you are of legal age to buy tobaco? Just curious.

 

Wonderful story. Nice to hear young entrepreneurs making it. Hope you don't mind some razzing- you understand with the glaring discrepancies of your first few posts it had to be done. If you're legit this is a very forgiving crowd... but there have been *many* young poseurs who have lied here and get weeded out. A few weeks ago some kid said he won the lottery and bought an Enzo, people have claimed to own classics with VIN's of owner's friend's cars, etc.

Among your businesses which I'm sure took a lot of time, were you able to start or finish college?

 

Shawn, you must admit, this all sounds a bit far fetched to most reasonable people. I apologize for having some questions it's just that certain things dont' add up so perhaps you can clear this up by providing some basic information. Why don't you post the following:

1. VIN#? Options? of your car
2. Where you purchased the car from?
3. Detailed photos?

By the way, what publicly traded company purchased your cigar store? If this is all true, you should write a book, it all sounds quite fascinating.

 

You're worth millions, the cigar business was running when you were 17, right?

This CARDOMAIN site says you're already 18 (or when this was posted), but you don't even have a garage? Something is fishy. Be careful mate... Google will reveal everything.

I'm confused on your cardomain site too. It was created in May 2003 when you were 17. But now you're 21 and have moved from the Ford to a Ferrari? Dang, that's hot.

In fact, I'll assume your "family business" is Hoffman Humidor, right? Good ol' www.cigarboxes.com seems like a dead site. Give us some more information! I'd love to buy a nice humidor.

 

bs

thanks for playing

 

...And I was born on 7/12/82 i just buzzed through the registration process....[/QUOTE]

You really must have rushed. You got the month wrong, the date and the year!

 

You don't think this could be the real Gary Green?

 

You guys are the best!! Good work.

Dr J

 

All the better reason that this will be become a pay site.

 

AMEN, WILL.............

 

Dear Retired21,

If you are 19 now (assuming you were really 18 when you posted at cardomain) then presumably you just hit it big this year. Congrats on beating the Dow, S&P and every other index by a country mile.

If you are actually 21, then you made your fortune during the "depresssion" of 2001-2002. In that case you beat the c_ _p out of every current living fund manager, as well as icons like Warren Buffett, Carl Icahn, and good solid investors like myself. Why no cover story on Fortune, Money, Crains or at least Teen Beat Magazine?

I also noticed you own a chrome plating business. Is your 360 a 1:18, 1:26 or 1:48 model?

 

It is not a cigar business he owns, but "Me and my friend own a chrome plating business (chromeconceptz.com I made website"

That is a quote from his saleen website Pete found

EDIT: Sorry seems like SOLLY noticed the same thing as me on above post.


I don't understand why people have to lie and do such things. Is there that much shame in being poor that one has to lie to just fit in? I never understood it.

 

Hilarious
