  • “Buy your vehicle and make sure it is over the weight limit for the IRS. You can then have accelerated depreciation if you're a 1099 broker and use the majority of it for business. Double-check with your accountant before you take my advice.”

  • “Leased for years. The 10, 12k, 15k limits are imaginary. I drive over every year. They want you usually to stay with the brand so if you release with them they waive the additional mileage overage. It’s a negotiation. I’m on my 5th Honda and they have never once asked me to pay the mileage. Also don’t let them try to get money down for the lease. If you have a 750-800+ credit score they will give”

  • “Lease a minivan. Brag about the low monthly payments of $599. Then talk to your clients about fiscal responsibility and the upcoming actions of the Fed. Enjoy.”
