How are your investments doing?

My cousin's ranch easily is worth tens of millions in land, cattle and equipment alone. If you ever saw him, you'd think he was struggling to put fuel in his truck.

I worked in financial services most of my work life. People making tens of millions are not like the characters who do so in movies...not most of them anyway.

So true… just hang around Silicon Valley long enough will change a person’s perspective of rich…

That said family friend of grandparents and my dad was a generational owner of a very large Nevada cattle ranch and also prized Lake Tahoe holdings and you would never ever know it seeing him in boots driving his old beat pickup with a livestock rack in back…

I have read that billionaires that actually drive themselves tend to own Toyotas and Ford F150s. One of the wealthiest people I have been friends with always made sure his wife had a new vehicle, and she really didn't care, but drove 10-20 year old cars or trucks himself. His wife finally got tired of Infinitis or Mercedes and got herself a Chrysler minivan. Drove it for years until he traded it in on a new one for her.
