Thanks for that insight. It‘s scary to see how many people operate in a financial unresponsible way. I often wonder what the real reasons are. I think over here in Germany we experience the same trends. Are these signs of our education systems failing ?

Agreed, both on the gas-station and car dealership industries. Great read, thx, Chip.

+3 or is it now 4, 5?

Love getting an insider's perspective.

I listened to the documentary type radio program over the weekend. It is an in-depth story of the life behind the scenes in a new car dealership.

I thought it was extremely interesting. I am guessing you might too.

The listen button is just below the picture of the salesman, whom I am guessing is the top salesman in the story. You can break it down in to acts if you don't have enough time for the whole piece.
