Nice car. Had 2. Wait 'till the electrical system goes and no one knows how to fix it. The most undependable car I ever owned x 2.
DOC Lift, fuck, make money
Same story for me.. Had 2 and both were crap.. Always had a problem with both.. Worst cars I ever owned..

I'd hate to let out the secret, but nobody will ever get rich competing in bodybuilding.. I like Jay, but he will have to cut back on his lifestyle a bit.. I hope he was smart and invested in rental property or something 'cause I don't think IFBB has retirement benefits..

Most rentals are 6 months or a year, not 3 years...
And most people don't rent a place and have to share it with shitty gym members and lazy gym owners/workers that can't maintain a clean and maintain dumbell rack.
Not sure what gym you work at /0r own, but you lose alot of members from the initial shaft they get when they sign up experience , instead of offering them a 3 month membership to see if they like it, you stick it to them for 3 years...
Either way ... I'm past the contract phase, there is always other options and gyms to go around
Never had a 3 year contract at my gym..(I own a Powerhouse Gym) We have 10 month contracts with a free first month or 1 year paid in full.. And we keep the gym like new and clean.. Our monthy dues are as low as 10 bucks per month.. or paid in full as low as 99 per year.. But I see your point if you are talking about 3 year contracts.. I'd never sign that..

these fat shits go to your gym maybe 5 -20 total hours in 3 years, and you think its right for you to charge them $1,400?  Here's a good way to put it.. If you rent a house and you are never there, do you pay less rent? It's there and they can use it anytime they want..

and why are you trying to lock fat people into contracts ?
because you know its easy money, and then you drain their bank accounts and send them to collections, thats your bread and butter money maker right there.
I look at it as helping them out.. Force them to live longer and more healthy.. But really, most gyms would not survive without contracts.. They don't have to sign it.. We don't force them..

Gyms are failing because people are broke and the gyms can't get any money out of your accounts anymore.. We're lucky to keep a member more than a few months and that's with a signed contract.. Most accounts will end up in collections.. Then you have your over-weight people that give up after a month.. That doesn't help..

False. The Vette offers great bang for the buck, but since the thing handles like shit and can't put any of it's massive power to the ground efficiently, it's not as good of a car as it could be.
The only better thing about the Vette is the price, but if you can spend 100k on a Vette, you can afford to drop 200k on a real sports car.
As a multiple vette owner, i can say the only truth to this is the great bang for the buck..
