Maybe you should look at google, both of the founders were billionaires before 30 years old. They have more fortune than me by many many fold. The internet is creating more young entrepreneurs than ever before.
Long story short if you really need to know, which btw is none of your business, but I'll humor you. Around 18 years old I started an internet advertising company that grew to over 1300 employees. About 4-5 years ago I started a limo company with 1 limo and we've grown to a 7 figure a year business now, mostly through internet advertising. For example go on google and type in "hummer limo" we're #1 and #2, along with 100s of searches like that. I still do alot of biz online with various things. So to answer "who gave you all those cars", would be me. My dad drives a chevy malibu and my mom drives a toyota 4runner. Who bought your cars, since its so important to you?
I've made over 120 posts in the last month since I joined and have helped people out with info and ideas, but I've learned 10x more here from the members on here. I dont go around bashing people like you.
How is posting a picture of another car of mine "not being humble"? Also Super66 asked me about my other cars in this thread, so I answered the question, guess that equals "not being humble" also? Since this is a 986 website like you said and I should only have a picture in my signature of a 986, are all the people that have pictures of 987s bragging? Also I dont remember reading where it said I had to check with you first for permission on what I can put in my signature.
Lastly, I dont have a picture with me and my box yet as Ive only had the car for 4 weeks and have been out of town for almost 2 out of those 4 weeks. The only pics I have of my boxster I had to take, nobody was there to take one of my boxster with me. I put that picture up of my signature the day I joined the forum which was just before I bought the boxster I believe.

When a person has made it for themselves and are young people just assume they were given good fortune. Screw the haters, I'm sure you've come across plenty of them. Thanks for "your story" I had often wondered but, thought it rude to ask.
Someday, I too will have a garage similar to yours. Minus the american crap as I'm not a fan.

Yeah good for you. Its the American dream to live in the land of opportunity. I am also 26 and can't say that I hate you for having such cool cars, but I am jealous.
Strange though as I get older I find myself caring less and less about cars. I just ordered myself a smart car - its not a head turner, but for some reason I get more excited about it then I do about Lambos and other exotics. I guess its just something different

first of all your cars are awesome! Thats a sweet lineup of cars you've had and i love the yellow as well..
second, i think u handled the "attack" great, i get really pissed off when people think that its impossible to be young and have money/be sucessful. My gf and I get this crap all the time and it pisses me off like crazy because most of the time its just jelaousy and ignorance.
Anyway, enjoy your cars and good luck with everything

Absolutley perfect to deal with that dick the way you did, you've done amazing and to give your dad a job is cool you ever thought of bucking the trend and calling the company ********* & father
Ignorance is to blame, on a smaller scale i get it to as i work for a family business and am not the poorest 24 year you'll get I own my own home...etc..etc, in life its only extra 000's on the pay check that devide these situations, i mean we all drive Porsches for god sake, but creating an empire like that yourself is impressive, you dont need smoke blown up your ass by everyone on here but courtesy and respect are defo required.
Ever thought of chopping the lambo and box in and getting a Carrera GT???

yea the lambo is registered in florida. The main reason I dont like the gallardos is the doors dont open up. I can just see everywhere you would go people would be like "if its a lamborghini why dont the doors open up?" Styling and power wise I think its great though.
Also when I had my diablo roadster I loved that thing. The remoable top with the doors open upwards was awesome. I bought it with 5k miles and kept it for over 2 years, but even with only 5k miles it had alot of maintance, there was always stuff needing to be fixed. The murci doesnt have as many problems but still is much higher maintance than say a boxster. I wouldnt get a diablo now mainly because theyre so dated especially if you get anything but the last year where they had popup lights.
