Re: 23 year old engineer invested in a 1931 Ford Model A instead of stocks. And WON!
OK simple math compare Model T and A prices of 20 years ago and today. They have both lost money compared to conservative stock investments.
I sold my 66 Shelby for $20,000 a profit in 4 years of $18,000. If I had held onto it I'd be asking $175,000+ for it. Around 1975/6 I turned down a 3.000 mile 1969 Boss 429 for $3,000 just because a cylinder head was in the trunk. That car today is nearly 1/2 a million.
You can make money on collector cars - if you use the right crystal ball......
