Scotty Kilmer why not getting a proper car when you have so much money ? Out with the celica in with the vw or Supra
Hey Scotty what do you think about the Renault Twingo I as a first car :) Hope you know it.
If he was a billionaire he would buy a better car from toyota
I probably has around a million from savings, not a billion
Hey Scotty, What is your opinion on a Toyota 86? Are they well built?
Scottys now a Millionaire and is ready to upgrade his 1994 Toyota celica.
*buys a 1995 Toyota Celica.*
Munozl360 this wins the Internet
I thought he upgraded to another 94 celica. Lol
😂
nvra75 he bought a '94 for a parts car
Not 95!! More like a 2000
Jokes aside, I have a lot of respect for this guy. He's thrifty, hard working, and humble
thrifty, hard working, and humble and time is how you become wealthy.
Humble? lol.
Yup
@@danielstapleton8875 Yea, I think he is humble. He is not cocky, he is just confident in his abilities. He seems to be a very down to earth and grounded guy.
InFiD3ViL dude is not humble
A millionaire who drives used cars, that’s a smart man right there. You’re truly an inspiration Mr. Kilmer!
What's the point of being a "millionaire" if you live in a 'beat-up house' and drive an old banger.
@@agt155 Because quality in modern cars today... Are endless money pit they are not reliable anymore...
That's not smart. If you're that old and happen to be a millionaire too, you might as well enjoy your money. Why would you save it?
The internet destroyed how people look at life, makes you think you need millions, nice cars big houses, certain clothing , certain way to talk walk and think, old school is the best thing out there!
I would do the same. If I was, I would still try to live modestly
so he titles the video how I became a millionaire, talks maybe 1 minute about it then proceeds to do what he does best and that folks is actually how he became a millionaire.. +50 years of time and passion MAJOR RESPECT
Let that sink in people. A millionaire, who could afford any new Mercedes-Benz, is preaching to buy reliable cars like Toyota. This man knows what he is talking about. He would not spend his own money on those cars! Thank you Scotty! You are the hero we don't deserve.
It comes down to personal preference. He is not one that likes to spend money that’s all.
He wouldn't be a millionaire if he bought certain cars, he would loose money lol
I wouldn't buy one if I was a millionaire I would have a nice fast practical hatchback or estate for my daily and a proper off road for fun and thats about it. I would get no pleasure out of a Mercedes at all I like driving so why would I drive a Mercedes they are soulless.
SMO222 true that. I love scotty
And he owns an old Toyota and an old Lexus when he could buy new ones
Scotty a millionaire who happily drives a celica and lexus es... seriously tho Scotty is an amazing role model super humble and hard working
There's a great book and audiobook called "The Millionaire Next Door." Mr. Kilmer checks off a lot of the boxes from that book.
No point have having money if your not gona use it
I agree completely Zibby H.!
@@letsgotomarsman he does use it. You have no idea what he enjoys off-screen. Only a lemming would believe a million dollars means you HAVE to go out and buy some car that seems to prove it. you can go pretend to do that with 15 grand and a negative balance if you wanted to.
I go to the beach in a place called Lanikai, MULTI million dollar homes... nothing BUT millionaires as residents... and maybe one in 4 garages are actual luxury vehicles. I see mostly everyday cars, many of them over 10 years old being driven by these rich people. They don't have a ferrari because they aren't uneducated rappers who feel they have to have one, they're SMART with their money.
Ikura Burst well there are plenty of educated rappers that have degrees and are smart. I’m a car guy, so buying a fun car to drive is better then a boring point A to B car. Some rich people wana spend money on luxury or fast cars. I don’t see a problem with it just like people wana spend money on a nice updated house. So your views of people that enjoy cars is skewed man, hope you educate yourself and fix it. Bye
REV UP YOUR Financial plans
GAMBLING!!
Steve Morelli 🤣😂
Off to the riverboat...
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
If your a millionaire and you own a celica your a truly dedicated man and very humble, I have full respect for you.
If you're a millionaire and own a celica il be more likely to believe that then if you owned a new merc as a millionaire
he just knows what's good and reliable :))
Millionaire who works out of his house, and lives life down to Earth.
This is the American dream.
It's so fun to watch Scotty's videos.
Scotty is the millionaire I will always respect.
An honest guy who made a million... That makes a nice change ☺️
They're everywhere. Check out Dave Ramsey's Everyday Millionaires segments.
TrapTombstone Around 1%of the world has one million dollars or more, so I wouldn't say they're everywhere.
@@nattyboyo2404 its much less than 1% actually, but they are highly concentrated in developed nations. Even so, if 1% of the people you see a week were millionaires, wouldn't that surprise you? Again, check out the Everyday Millionaires segment.
You seem to have this idea that the rich have stolen from the poor and made dishonest money, but Scotty is the exception. I'm telling you that Scotty is the rule.
@enginemaxcarb. false.
@Robby Dey what?
He's def an everyday millionaire
10 million gets you in the millionaire club...
Holy crap he's a millionaire?! Keep going Scotty! You are the best!
*you're
whoops! gonna fix that!
Like he said he’s been a mechanic for fifty years and he saves money. Compounded interest man. Maybe hes including his property into his net worth which he said is worth 500k. Most people include their properties into their personal net worth.
@@ignignokt-6050 I never made more than $9.00 per hour. Upgraded my vehicle every 20 years. I am debt free. Just know how to save. It's not hard to be a millionaire if your are careful.
@@ignignokt-6050 he also had a tv show as well. He is worth over 10 million. Look at how many videos have a million views! With the amount of videos he puts out, he makes a million dollars a year off you tube alone!
Crazy how you have made so much over the years but yet you don’t live in a new house, drive new cars or scam people for more money. Your humbleness is a mile high.
That's how he's made it to a millionaire!
True..
High humbleness, now that's a new one, ha
If he spend the money on building new fancy houses or buying new cars, then he wouldn't be a millionaire.
Justin Lynch I doubt it because he has TH-cam now
Scotty is the Warren Buffett of car repairmen! Well done, sir!
and Buffet drives himself in used Grand Marquis.
@Ron Johnson 2 why do you say that? Maybe I'm a sucker, but I think he seems honest.
That is it.. I'm buying me a 1994 celica to start saving money...
Not buying a car would be smarter start
Buy a toyota echo if you are actually serious about saving money
It's a good idea. Early 90s and earlier are great because they aren't full of computer systems. I like the 80s because you can replace or rebuild everything on the cars for fractions of what it costs on new vehicles. Oh and they are much more comfortable
Alpha1 I bet ya you don’t
Do yourself a favor and get a Honda Civic
I never knew he was a millionaire! Hardworking millionaire right here !
Look at the neighborhood he lives in. His frugal living.
There was an older guy who used to bowl in my league...looked like your average retired blue collar guy, always dressed in old t-shirts and jeans. Nice enough guy. After he and his teammate retired from our league, I found out that he had a few million bucks in the bank. Just an average guy who worked hard, lived frugally and knew how to invest his money, and parlayed that into a huge nest egg.
Raymond Sheppard not all millionaires drive a Lamborghini and dress just to impress other people who could care less
Scotty is the neighbor everyone wishes they had.
Raymond Sheppard read “the millionaire next door.” There are 11 million millionaires in the US. The vast, vast majority of them are everyday people. Quite a few of them never received a college education. Many of them came from poverty. A lot of them never had 6 figure incomes before becoming millionaires.
I can't think of anyone that better deserves the title of "Millionaire." No instant Lotto winner, you worked hard for over fifty years and made a lot of customers happy... now you are doing it for a new generation of the mechanically inept or curious. I just turned 67 today and remember working on cars as a teenager. Could have used your advice then! Thank you, Scotty!
Happy birthday Thomas!! I'm 70 now and worked on my old stuff but it was much easier to work on. I just watched a video of a guy working on an OLD car, with points and he didn't "get it". Could not get the car to start. I remember using a match book cover to "gap" the points in an emergency. Hey! Got me going and to the house. I haven't kept up with auto mechanics like I should and now get frustrated with the "codes" my worthless scanner gives me. Course Scotty says a fancy scanner will give you real, useable info. But I don't want to spend a grand or more on something I'll need once in a blue moon. I prefer the old days, when almost everything could be handled by a shade tree mechanic. Me.
@@tomswinburn1778 Thanks! Lucky for me my '02 Jeep Grand Cherokee has a feature that I just turn the key on three times, and the code shows up where the odometer is. Then I look up the code. But then I still need one of those OBDII devices to reset the codes. That cost me $23 on ebay. I remember fixing my VW throttle cable with real baling wire from my father's baling machine. And rebuilding the carb was simple, with a $5 kit. These days there's a hood under the hood, and "I ain't touchin' it!"
Happy Birthday Thomas!
@@RaceCar21 Happy Birthday Young'un!
Thomas Darby Got the same Jeep! Those WJ's are the best! I'm looking to get another one to keep my "Baby" from being lonely Lol!
I wonder how many poor people who drive BMWs are watching this right now and feeling salty lmao
A lot lol
😂😂 True
@@gregoriojuarez1579 and I bet they feel good driving their BMW eventhough they're living paycheck to paycheck lmao
@@MiMiOrt 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@javi found one! Lmao
That laughing zebra gets me EVERYTIME 😭😂😂
👌👌
I liked the ball and chain this time, too
A millionaire with a Celica. Love it haha
blanky blank That’s why he’s a millionaire - doesn’t waste money on fancy cars that lose a fortune in depreciation or cost loads in maintenance.
Stay debt free! Your income is an awesome wealth building tool when you have no payments in the world.
@@andrewe7314 its particle because of that.
@@andrewe7314 so whats the point having money. i think you'll find hes only worth a million if you include his house
Matthew Jackson He happens to love his wife! And why become a cocaine junky?
Scotty is a millionaire in pocket and millionaire at heart. Has helped thousands of us. Truly inspiring individual.
I like the way you put that.
@@HelloKitty-sc3vo have you and Mo Ali been introduced?
All the dislikes comes from dealers 😂😂
Yea chevy ones
Or he just makes them dizzy
Cadillac ones lol
And crooked mechanics
Dealers and car manufacturers must really hate him! 😂
this dude is such a G. Let the haters hate. Scotty laughing all the way to the bank.👌🍻👍
He is a G. He's from H Town.
@@Eman1900O I guess he's going to leave good sums to each of his kids.
You da real g daw keepin it 100...
J 87 he's not laughing because it's not like he's going to spend it on anything, so where is the excitement? like how can you have a huge car channel on TH-cam, and only drive a Celica? Buy something interesting and have a little bit of fun. Show people it's ok to enjoy their life. You can't take anything with you so ENJOY IT WHILE YOU CAN.
@BE READY you obviously missed the whole point and plot of his channel. He obviously DOES enjoy his life and what he is doing! Plus he is paying to put all his grandkids through college full paid! He has a house in Tennessee and has a vacation home on the ocean in Rhode Island. He has no boss and is financially free. That is definitely something worth enjoying! Some people do not enjoy overpaying and being taken for suckers. Maybe it’s a concept you don’t get. Also he stated he’s actually not even into cars, he is into motorcycles! And he has several motorcycles for excitement. For example, plenty of plastic surgeons are not actually into the product they sell, and their spouses and kids are average looking but do not engage in the Plastic Surgery industry. Once you know how an industry actually works, you are less enamored with the product it creates.
All that junk in your garage is worth a million dollars Scotty....
might be a green screen lol
A million dollars to a guy collecting junk....excuse me .... I mean stuff.
If it's worth a million, it ain't junk bud. I agree btw.
one mans trash is another mans garage
I bet his books are too.
The secret of being a millionaire: 1994 Toyota Celica!
The secret to low costs in general is Toyota lol
Pretty much. Do away with car payments and invest that money instead and you'll be a millionaire
Is save money by buying a reliable car
Not a luxury rubbish car
Can’t take it with you in the end might as well live it up
The key word WORK nobody wants to work , they want the results of hard work.
why work when the socialists are promoting a 1,000/month as a federal employee! You can work if you want, free health care ect ect
@@paulbunyun-xi9by wut
@@justifano7046 yeah look it's happening, the gubberment is now paiying an additional 600/week on top of the States unemployment.thats an extra 2,400/month!!!no one will want to go back to work!!!
Yup. The propaganda being spewed by government schools and universities telling the kids that all people with money exploited someone to get it is a purposeful subversion of society. It is criminal. And we are witnessing the effects now with the escalating violence.
@@EnFuegoDuo nobody teaches that...
Scotty Kilmer is the best channel on TH-cam
Agreed
Being frugal is the key. .. my family laughed at me for years for being frugal, thrifty, price comparing. .. now they are jealous that I can do what I want, whenever I want
Wayne A that my friend, is the true freedom!
I'd been called cheap for years. I don't buy junk, but I look for great deals and I pay cash for everything. Fast forward a few years, and all my family members, with the exception of one, now have no car payments.
Mikejk Smith Isn’t that the truth. It’s weird. The larger our bank account grows the cheaper I get.
@@THETOPGLOCK
We get wiser as we age. .
Same here! My parents were frugal and I'm frugal. I still live in my first house, drive a 20 yo car (Lexus), retired 18 years before my coworkers, am a multimillionaire and can do whatever I want in life. The secrets, including frugality, investing broadly, cheaply, continuously and compounding dividends by reinvesting them when paid.
Scotty Kilmer... Automotive Mechanic, Philosopher, Financial Adviser, realtor advisory expert,...... I can't keep up with yuh.... But appreciate your down-to earth Expertise.......Thank you!

Scotty Kilmer and Dave Ramsey would be a killer collaboration
Yes it would...they should interview him.
I prefer Clark Howard.
That would be a Kilmer collab for sure!
@@johnmorgan4368 Clark is good on the smaller tips that save you money on every day type purchases. Ramsey is more long term type guy. I like Clark's personality better, but I do like when Ramsey pretty much tells a caller they are stupid. lol
What Scotty did is pretty much what Ramsey says to do, don't spend money on stupid things. Save/invest your money and over a long period of time you will have wealth. Notice how Scotty always talks about his old celica.....Well, if every year he would have went out and got a new car, there is a good chance he wouldn't be a millionaire.
@@Ka_Gg most of the callers to Dave Ramsey deserve to be called morons. The thing is, I've never been a big spender, always been a big saver, and always been thrifty, so although Ramsey gives great advice, I don't need it or get anything out of his show, other to marvel at people who make four times what I do being broke while I am probably going to retire at 50.
Good job Scotty! I'm glad you were wise with your finances and built wealth through honest work. Your advice reaches far beyond mechanics. I like your videos because you also shed light on the importance of being a good person and treating others with respect. You deserve every penny! Thank you for sharing your life with us!
Scotty is a millionaire because he still drives a 94 Celica. Think how much money he has saved by not buying new cars and doing his own repairs. The people that look like they have money don't have any and the guy who looks like he is broke is a millionaire.
Only thing is ya cant take it with you when you die, he's not a spring chicken anymore, better get to spending some of that moolah.
Sounds like a pretty boring life only driving that thing. Clearly an indicator that one really doesn't enjoy cars. FK that.
That's Right Man!
Prob $2000 a year
I have ownd one of those celiacs silly cars and boy let me tell you. They drink way to much fuel and prone to bearing failure sure Scotty knows all about that =\
I am a 401K millionaire, same job for 32 years and retired at 55 in 2016.
married ? No divorces ? (Me: 51, retired, no kids, never married, own house free and clear)
Scotty is an inspiration to so many and a rare human being in today's world. How many people on TH-cam are this truthful, genuine, helpful, humble and funny!
When you see those people on welfare wearing Gucci
Where??

Is a millionaire
Drives a celica
I can die happy now
One of the secrets to building wealth I've heard is to drive the least expensive car you can afford to be seen in.
You'll be surprise. How you manage it , is what counts...
My boss makes 200k a year and drives a 2008 accord, and we like to ride in the woods, he's a cool guy, and donates a lot to charity
@@Cekmore to be seen in
Rich guys VS poor guys, rich guys buy assets while poor guys buy liabilities don't buy or invest in things that lose money ie brand new cars
Hey Scotty, this is my very first comment on TH-cam and I am leaving it for you. you and your channel is simply awesome! There just ain't a lot of people are not bought off by the large companies and tell the hard truth any more and you are one of them good guys. Keep up the good work, wish you all the best .
"It's kind of like asking the devil if hell is a nice place". Awesome. I had a Dodge salesman a few weeks ago tell me that they have the 8 speed automatic down pat and they are rock solid (insert laughing horse head).

nice.I self identify as a slacker it's an acceptable group & I don't care if I'm accepted
Hahaha 😂
I love this comment
Thats so rasist omg
I've been following Mr. Kilmer for over 3 yrs now. He's always had solid & honest information about any vehicle I've ever thought to research.
You inspire me Scotty. I’m a big fan of your show, I watch all your videos, and I’m mechanic myself. It’s a good thing your doing , sharing the knowledge. People just don’t realize how complicated cars are now a days. Love your show!!
Work hard, work smart, stay consistent, and always do the right thing. Simple as that
i’ll take your words this time.
And invest in moderna, 2$ a stock, the company is gonna cure cancer by engineering your DNA which also happens to be the way to reverse aging
MaxSpeed Not exactly an easy thing to do in Trump’s America. His policies have gotten us into a world of hurt. Scotty was fortunate and lucky in his life to not have to get a start under such a presidency. We can’t begin to heal until Trump is out of office.
@@costco_pizza what trump policies have affected you financially?
MaxSpeed Always do the right thing ?
I love when scotty makes fun of his own laugh with bird faces donkey faces haha he knows how to have fun and laugh at himself. The baby duck squawking is my favorite haha
Actually he's making fun of your own laugh
And don't forget the horses.
Hyena laugh ! Its my fav
That's why I respect him even if I don't agree with some his advice. His humility and laid back personality is admirable.
fredkuhn165 No he doesn't! All production is by Scotty Kilmer!
He's exceptionally bright
Scotty is my favorite mechanic!! honest and to the point and has saved me money for many people. The people"s mechanic!!
This is absolutely how you become rich. Takes notes young bloods.

Should’ve had a better lawyer
Forget the haters Scotty. I get great information from your videos. Your pockets are not my concern. But your knowledge....that’s a gift. Thanks OG.💯
I'm walking in your shoe prints Scotty! Love your channel AND I love working on cars. It hasn't been 50 years for me yet but I'm not afraid of hard work and I'm greatful for the information you shared in this video. I'm not a millionaire yet either ... but getting close ;) keep em comin' Scotty, a lot of us are listening. Thank you once again!
Rev up your dollar bills
haha 😂 he clickbated everyone to see this video lol
Scotty is a great guy who works for us every day. If Scotty doesn't deserve to be a millionaire, nobody does!
This
oh yeah yeah
Amen!
Hey Scotty. I've only recently subscribed to your channel. You do an amazing job. I feel like a mechanic when I watch your videos. Love the funny pics you throw up too. Laughter is good. Keep up the good work. I live on a tiny island in the Caribbean. Goes to show how far your 50+ years has reached. Thanks again!
Love your practical advice about cars and life. Keep up the great work.
Millionaires only buy the FINEST of cat pillows.
Hey! You know how to stay a millionaire? Buy cat pillows and not overpriced materialistic items that mean absolutely nothing like everyone else does.
Hahaha. True.
Where do you think he keeps his cash? Inside the PILLOWS!
Congratulations Scotty. You are living the American dream. You are my kind of guy.
This guy is awesome he deserved to have millions he helped so many of us in automotive repairs and maintenance! God bless Scotty and all of us!
Been watching you for years and just found out your a millionaire. Much respect, you seriously are a huge inspiration to me 👍
He left out that he is really john Lennon. That alone is worth millions.
🤣😂🤣😂

I’ve never seen Scotty and Lennon in the same room at the same time... 🤔🤯
F M gaspar?
Work hard and save money. Live within your means. Great advice.
Love Scotty he just seems like an honest decent guy.
Rev up your compound interest 🕚💵💸💷💴💰
Lol
becoming a millionaire is not that hard. live below your means. save save save. i'm a millionaire. i drive 20 year old trucks with 400,000 miles on them. too many people are to worried about impressing everyone else. so they spend all of their money trying to look rich.
baba yaga I’m not sure if you’re telling the truth or not because this is the internet 😂. However, that is exactly how I live currently and I invest instead of saving so much. I’m not a millionaire and I’m not even in the 6 figure range yet but at 19 I’m seeing my money stack at a rate faster than most of my counterparts who are doing the opposite of what I’m doing. I like it
baba yaga, I agree wholeheartedly.
Most get in debt trying too look rich
Being a millionaire is actually common, young guy Haha. Good job! Keep it up, vaunguerd is good, too. I saved up just under 100k and lost it all. But check up with me on the future and I guarantee I'll be up again. I used to be homeless too. And never ever accepted food stamps or help from the government. In fact I pay them extra for the money my grandma got to take care of me, because my parents died and I lost a unmentionable amount of inheritance, from my own family, friends and other people that came out of nowhere. But I know that it's still possible :)
Devontae Allen that Black Dont Crack Must be a Lie Mustve Been BLacks Do Crack Cuz damn you look 30...!!😂

Absolutely. Staying married is an often overlooked but very important part of financial success.
Staying married which woman tend to not do
*MGTOW*
@@243wayne1 yep
Getting married is a great incentive to get you to make your life conditions better. But not with a woman that's a complete thot. And sadly a lot of western women are not trustworthy, I feel really bad for you guys.
Thanks Scotty for helping me get the knowledge to not be afraid of my engines! You rock!
Good for you Scotty, happy to hear your success stories, love your style.
Part of the reason Scotty is a millionaire is because he is cheap, and that's the way to do it. Buying brand new expensive cars all the time is a way not to become a millionaire.

Stealth Wealth is a good way as well. It helps save money without you trying to be "cheap", and people don't bother you.
You would be the best neighbor!
So honest and friendly!
Until he revs up his engines... ;)
@@Mortonbmx Exactly what I was thinking! Ha! God bless him!
Unlike mine, my neighbors son just got shot on his doorsteps, he deserved it he was nothing but a gang banger
I respect you man. I’m happy to see that hard works pay off.
Scotty doing TH-cam since 2007 is the equivalent of an actor starting back in the silent film era.
Here's my clean non-offensive comment, oh wait wrong video

@Class a million dollars isn't rich
@Class he already made hundreds of videos on how to fix lots of things on a car.
Congratulations you are this weeks winner of 20,000 dollars. You cheques in the email.
Let’s go Scotty! Flex on em!
Xx BigBoss xX true but hey was lowkey flexing on us, didn’t you see the thumbnail?
I can tell ur a millionaire by the fact u are always surrounded by 90's corolla motors 🤣
You've obviously worked very hard Scotty & did smart business & you deserve every continued success.
I wish you plenty more of it too.
Thanks for sharing this.
It really helps.
Best wishes always.

Good for you Scotty ! And you are still down to earth...being a millionaire didnt change you ! Hats off to you sir 🙌
That explains the dislikes, GM dealers
Thanks for all the awesome advice, automobiles and financials.
Thank you Scotty !!!
You are always there to help people with all your invaluable wisdom !!!!
Scotty - I think you're great and I love your channel! All the best.
A lot of what Scotty espouses is consistent with established guidelines to become wealthy. The biggest is: Don't spend more than you make. Read the book, "The Millionaire Next Door" by Thomas Stanley and William Danko. Good stuff. And while we're on the subject, I'm no millionaire, but I bought one car brand new in my lifetime for myself, and that was in 1982. Before and since, I paid cash on a used car. Sure, it's not the prettiest nor does it have all the bells and whistles, but when you're sitting behind the wheel, you don't know what the car looks like, and the people that you are trying to impress aren't paying for the car. So, as long as you have 4 wheels and a seat that can get you from Point A to Point B, you're good. As to needing repairs, yes, older cars do have stuff that wears out and needs fixing, but newer cars need maintenance, too. And it's a whole lot different paying $300 - $400 for a repair a few times a year than it is paying that amount EVERY MONTH for 4 or 5 years! So, be smart and rev up your investments!
I never spend the money on the latest and greatest, because a week or month or year from now it won't be anything special anymore. Especially cellphones. I always buy a used one off ebay for $100 or less, as long as it can make calls and has a web browser I could care less if it has a retina scanner or 6" 4k display.
@@carlosmatos9848 i use $15 ebay smart phones they work great
@@6955beniegn Do they work with Verizon though?
@@carlosmatos9848 good point. You'd have to first check to see if the ebay phone works with verizon. And then have to go to verizon store. they will try to up sell you to a new one, and may say that the old phone is no longer supported. I only use the phone for web browsing and VOIP calling over wifi, I do not, and and have never, and will never pay for a cell phone plan from any phone carrier. But i'm retired, so I dont need 100% phone coverage quality 100% of the time .
@@6955beniegn Then yeah in your case the ebay phones are perfect. I don't always have access to wifi so that's why i've got the phone and data plan. I usually just buy a phone that's made in the last 2 or 3 years, works fine for me.
Always love hearing your Stories and solid advice. Thanks again Scotty!!
It is obvious Scotty enjoyed working on cars now he is educating the people who listen to him that is the way to make a honest living. Thanks from your fans on you tube.
You deserve the money you earned Scotty🤝 congratulations!
In other words, Scotty, you worked your tail off! Reap your rewards friend, you earned them!
I remember when I started watching you. When I was a young technician 2012 and now I am a business owner, investor and licensed real estate agent now. Because I follow my passion 👍🏼 but I still remember my roots and I appreciated all you post on TH-cam it did help me to start and make money from 2012-2013 when I made the switched to do sales and flips
I love how you still drive that Celica. It’s so humbling
Scotty, You are absolutely right. Work hard, save money, don't get in over your head and over time living beneath your means and living smart will pay off. You give great honest advise on life and vehicles. Thank You.
You deserve to be wealthy IMO, Scotty, as you're a smart,educated hard-working dude. And, you're likable as HELL, so I'm happy YOU'RE rich, as opposed to some dirtbag lawyer or politician!!😀

Yeah,he's a bit of nugget. I think a lot of people would be happy if one his stunts involved playing solo Russia roulette😀🔫!!
Much respect and appreciation to you Scotty!!
I know a guy who owns a mechanic shop in a small town. He has 2 employees and brings in around 300k/year. He's always booked about 1 week out.
I'm 25 and I've studying and working so hard the last few years, I already own a nice 750k house and 2 cars that cost over 150k each.
It also helped that my parents are surgeons and kind of helped when they bought me those things when I was 20.
Alexander F cool story bro 🤓
@@dezalan437 , Southern Cali life style homie.
Alexander F That's saying a lot about your Parents! You can thank your lucky stars to be born to two talented people!
@@joelspivak6622 , I deserve some credit because I studied and I work hard as a waiter...
Good one Alex! 😁
I must thank you. You've really educated me and saved me a ton of cash and time! I couldn't begin to compensate you as I'm no millionaire but i can afford some Scotty Merchandise! Thanks again and may your beard grow ever longer!
We all appreciate the work you've put in giving car tips and any little thing you can think of.
He works and saves up his money and doesn't waste money on brand new cars that depreciate. Smart man!
