What do you people do for a living

Hey I was just wondering inorder to get an Sl55 AMG or any other 100K plus car you need to have acquired a great deal of wealth. So I was just wondering are you guys like CEO's of top companies or pro athletes that just love showing off the ridiculous amount of money they have and how to spend correctly when buying a Mercedes-Benz

the truth is you don't really have to be THAT rich to own a car anymore... just take up monthly payments on the car, everything is affordable, assuming you don't have to pay mortgage or take care of a family... in that case, stay single your whole life, work your *** off, and you can drive any car...

Talking Heck, I dont pay a dime for my Benz!

Hi,

I’m a little new to this forum but I wanted to give my 2 cents also.

It’s actually not that hard to afford a Mercedes.

I bought my 2001 E320 on monthly payments a while ago but I don’t pay a dime out of my pocket for the payments.

You could say I drive it for free and that is true since I don’t pay anything for it except gas and insurance.

I’m planning on writing a report on my whole easy system.

I know you guys would be interested so I’ll let you in on the juicy secrets when I’m done typing it.

It’ll be a real eye-opener!

Well, yeah, I know it is hard to believe.

And I’m not offended by your skepticism.

Of course I had to buy the car but my payments don’t come out of my pocket.

I get about $900 - $1000 in referral fees (sometimes even more) from the Mercedes-Benz dealership for sending customers their way. And it demands very little of my time.

I’ll give you more information if you’d like.

No Prob!

Dealerships pay out a referral feel of $100 - $500 bucks if you send them a customer and they buy it.

The reason why they are doing this is b/c they suck at adv. Pick up the paper and you'll see they all look the same as any other competition ads.

And the salesman are bunch of yahoos who sit there and chew their fat all day long.

I just use the money i get from referral fees and put it towards my benz.

I have a really easy system of generating highly qualified leads of people looking to buy a mercedes or BMW (Sorry!) and send the leads to the dealership. Out of 20 or so you'll get 3-5 who buy a car.

I could go on for pages and pages. But...

Like I said, I'll give an announcement when I'm done writing a report on my system.
