Think for a moment.... if this money came from a minor investment then how much money can you get from a major investment? Enough to buy your Jeep and land? Probably.

This totally depends on ones personal financial situation and needs. Completely depends on each persons situation.

Most people who have a gladiator either:
a) have a decent amount of disposable income to buy if outright or
b) have decent credit and income to
be able to afford one.

if you couldn’t afford one in the first place, you probably shouldn’t buy one with the 100k. If you could already afford one, 100k probably wouldn’t change the decision or way you built it.

to me... It wouldn’t have changed a thing. I would have put the 100k in more real estate and still financed the exact same amount and rate. Same max tow, same set up. Interest paid based on current rates is nominal, especially based on some of the deals people are getting.

This is all sound financial advice you are getting, even the blow, but you don’t want to listen do you, ok here is another look at money, there is really only one thing you can do with money...SPEND IT! Sure you can save it, invest it, grow it, that is boring as hell you have to SPEND IT! Money is to be SPENT by you, your beneficiaries, crooks that took it from you or people that talk you into donating it to a good cause, and they go out and get a bitching, jacked Gladiator, with chicks and blow and a bunch of boring investors watching and wondering how they did it.
Your asking a bunch of us that dropped a lot of money on a funny little truck then modded the hell out of them with incredibly expensive overpriced stuff that looks good, don’t be a loser do the right thing SPEND IT, SPEND IT, SPEND IT!......Jack

There ya go, it’s what you wanted to hear!

I"d buy a rental property ASAP. Nothing like having someone else pay for a large asset and making money along the way. Once the other person pays off your mortgage, the rental payment will easily pay for your car payments and kitting money.

What if the money came from a very minor investment?
Money is money my man. The first reply you received in this thread is spot on.

A few years ago I was finally in the financial position to achieve a life long dream of buying a (modest) house on Maui.

I spoke with my financial advisor about this opportunity and was shown the (bright) light that if I invested the money (conservatively)... I could continue to vacation on Maui any time I like and multiply my initial investment capital x20 (yes x20) within 15-20 years (which is when I could then retire on Maui). Done deal. Aloha!

If you live in a state with legalized marijuana, open a dispensary.
