    This is how a collection should be - uniquely personal to the collector. Otherwise, the “collection” turns into a museum and the “collector” into a curator.

      @Josh You think they are suppose to tell you if they donate to charity? Why aren’t you donating charity you don’t have to have certain amount of money. Some people want to be anonymous and doesn’t want praise from people like you. And if you haven’t noticed people can enjoy the passions they love and donate at the same time to keep it moving.

    It isn't very often that you see a person with such a net worth, that is truly humble. You can tell that Tim enjoys showing off his collection. Not in a "look at how much all the stuff I have costs", but more that he is so passionate about his collection, and truly enjoys seeing people get excited when they spot something else new they hadn't spotted yet. I can't say that I know exactly what type of person he is, as I don't know him. But, from what I have seen of him, he does seem like a legitimately down to Earth, good person.

    Had the pleasure of meeting Tim in Fort Lauderdale where he owns another home , walking down the beach as a 16 year old with my best bud and we hear this beast of a car coming down the street . We turn around and see this beautiful P1 with a crazy looking guy(sorry Tim ) in a tie die bucket hat behind the steering wheel . We couldn't believe our eyes . Tim then pulled the car over as he had saw us freaking out and came over and showed us the car ! After travelling back home to Niagara Falls and having no idea Tim was local to Ontario we started looking up " Santa Claus steals p1 mclearen in Florida " loan behold a photo came up and it was Tim ! Linked to that photo was a biography and ever since then , I've been to 2 of his car shows just 1 hour away from my house . Such an amazing character !

Could spend days just admiring the attention to detail, most accurate collection I’ve ever seen in terms of my style and creativity. Would love to tour it at some point. The level of financial freedom here is what makes it stand out, something most people would never be able to replicate in multiple generations.
