    Some people invest in weird random companies or the stock market. We invest in something much more fun and cool and that is Cars and car stuff. At the end of the day 99% of the time the stuff makes more than your initial investment and even if it breaks even in 50 years who cares you get much more enjoyment out of it than your money sitting in a bank.

    I would venture to say some of those might be generators.. or even alternators..
