Chapter 45: Black Monday Happy Jim
Jim is one of many car sales companies in New York, but he is very different from them, because he has a property of his own in the middle of New York, where the land is scarce, and he has millions of dollars in the bank, no, now he should say that he has 10 million, and he has officially bought the multimillionaire ranks by his own mind.
The main thing is that at the beginning of the year, he overheard two customers who bought cars from him inadvertently mentioning the situation in the stock market and the expectations in the future.
Jim is a cowboy by background, he has no education, he has that flexible brain and his sincerity in dealing with customers, and he will not recommend some flashy cars to some customers for high income, which has won the favor of everyone.
By word of mouth, his reputation has officially established itself in a small circle, and there is a tendency to expand outward.
When he was working as a cowboy on a Texas ranch, the cowboy with a good reputation earned a lot and had a family willing to hire him, while the one with a bad reputation could only get a low salary and always worry that the rancher would fire him when he got up the next day.
By chance, Jim left Texas, where he had been raised for more than twenty years, and came to the bustling city of New York.
Here he worked a lot of jobs, dishwasher, leaflet handout, stevedore, etc., and finally by chance, he joined the car sales company as a car salesman.
The low level of education was only the first time he was at a loss after being exposed to pickup trucks, but this did not stump him, and soon he memorized all the models, performance and other parameters with his own efforts.
When a customer comes to the door and other salesmen are unwilling to receive him, he will step forward and treat the customer with the rules he has figured out over a period of time, but to tell the truth, this has not changed.
In the impetuous and noisy New York, such a salesman who does not aim to fool customers for the purpose of making money suddenly appeared, and everyone recognized him while feeling fresh.
In this way, after more than five years of hard work, he has come to his current position step by step, and has his own place in the automobile sales company association.
After having customers and some long-term customers, he earns more commissions, and after more money, he needs to find a place to spend it, and staying in his hands can only make him depreciate indefinitely.
After having three million in his life, Jim set his sights on the heavily guarded central apartment next to Central Park, where he had been to when he was a moving company employee when he entered New York.
In the more than five years since New York, Jim has grasped the concept of status, and the general direction is that you can do it as long as you have money, especially now that the central apartment has become even more so after the politicians have moved out and joined a group of businessmen.
A house of only 70 square meters but sold for more than 5 million dollars did not seem to be a difficult task for him at this time, as long as he continued like this, he believed that it would not be long before he would have more than 5 million, and maybe he would have a car dealership of his own.
Thinking of the disdainful gazes of the security guards and the tone of the guards urging them to be mindful of the furniture they were carrying, Jim gritted his teeth and took out a loan to buy a room at the agency.
Honest people also have tempers, not to mention that they come from the land of grumpy cowboys, as long as the cowboys are not docile, they just don't break out, Jim is the kind of person who is good at hiding himself.
Since moving into the apartment, Jim has deliberately walked past the gate every morning and made a detour to the underground garage to pick up his car for work.
It's a bit of a bad taste for Jim, and every time he sees the guards look respectful to him, he gets a very satisfying feeling, and he gets a happy day at work, which over time gradually becomes his daily routine.
For a person like Jim, the more money is made, as long as he maintains the current attitude, he will easily obtain tens of millions of assets, and when the time comes, as long as he invests in an insurance, he will make his life worry-free, and even have his dream car dealership.
It's just that a change occurred at the beginning of the year, when two people who looked like they were working on Wall Street were introduced by a friend to the car sales company where he worked, and asked him to serve.
While selling cars to customers that belong to their consumer class, Jim listened to the two men's plans for the company's next development and investment.
At that time, he didn't take it to heart, but when the two of them accepted the car he was selling, and paid happily, and finally handed him a business card of his own, Jim's calm mood suddenly rippled.
Looking at the company and name on the business card, he tried to recall the stock market investment that the two of them talked about.
In the following period, he called some of his former clients, nominally for return visits, but in his words, he consciously or unintentionally asked about the stock market and treasury bonds.
After a period of side-clicking and recording some of the information he knew from the customer's mouth, Jim decided to put the money he earned into it.
As long as it rises for a while, he will sell them all, and then look for other places to invest, the stock market is not a long-term place to manage money after all.
With that in mind, Jim bought shares in Coca-Cola, Wal-Mart and Boeing, which are heavy stocks in the stock market, and immediately invested about 40 percent of his monthly income in them.
In the past, the happiest thing every day was to travel through the past in front of those security guards who were arrogant in front of outsiders but were careful in front of him for fear that he would complain about them, and now there is another one, because the stock market is rising every day, and although the stocks he buys are not rising much, his assets are increasing bit by bit.
After a few months of gains, he had a 70% return on the principal, so that when he saw that the stock market was rising so well, he no longer made any reservations, and directly threw all his deposits in the bank into the stock market.
Only this time he did not choose heavy stocks, but chose the hottest technology stocks such as Microsoft, Cisco and other companies, mainly because their rise during this period was too fast and their earnings were too high.
Greed is the nature of recognition, and it is also a thing that people have to face, Jim's previous request was very simple, and his request in the car sales company was only a million dollars in case of emergency, but now, the cowboy's adventurous nature has been completely stimulated, and the heart he has been suppressing is also completely revealed.
He wants more money, he wants to be a master, he wants to make everyone respectful, he has to respect him, the root of this qiē comes from money, as long as there is enough money, he will be heartbroken when he enters a nightclub carefully now, and he will not save zài for a long time.
He believes that as long as he takes out the money after a period of time, when he waits for his assets to double, he will be one of the people at the top of society.
At that time, the beauties of New York will no longer despise him because he is a cowboy, ignore him, and even take the initiative to stick it in front of the green Franklin and give him to enjoy himself.
Thinking about that wonderful Cheng dù, a wonderful smile bloomed on Jim's face.
In the morning, Jim got up as usual, a glass of milk and a toast as usual, and after eating, he patted his strong body, gave himself a flying kiss in the mirror, and went out in a different costume to continue his bad taste.
Walking out of the building, looking up at the very warm sunlight shining on his body, Jim's heart was very light.
A good day is a sign that he will have a good harvest.
Glancing back at his guard who was still standing there, Jim nodded in satisfaction and walked to the garage. "Jim, you're about to move out of here, but I know you've made a big turnaround, is your next stop Manhattan or moving out of this hateful city?"
Walking up to his own black graceful Cadilac in the underground parking lot, he opened the car door and was about to enter, when Jim heard a voice coming from beside him.
In the United States, income is **, and casually asking about other people's income is a kind of disrespect for him, and Jim is the same, his brows furrowed tightly, and then he looked in the direction of the source of the voice.
What catches my eye is a flattering face, when his neighbor, a small owner who makes car parts, also moves into the central apartment because of his unbalanced heart.
It's just that he's different from Jim, he still has a million-dollar loan on his back, and Jim's house is completely his own.
"Hey, David, I'm not as good as you think, no one can say for sure if the stock market doesn't take out the money until the last minute, you know that he is an ever-changing market, he makes us feel helpless, we can only quietly listen to God's arrangement.
But I know you're about to pay off your mortgage and make the house your own, and I'm here to congratulate you in advance, my fellow. ”
Jim closed the open door and stood there to David.
"Ah, I'm sorry, Jim, I shouldn't have been talking about your income privately. ”
Looking at Jim's smiling face, David knew that he had committed a taboo, quickly apologized, got into the car, and drove out of the parking lot quickly.
"How do people like you know what I'm thinking? Wait, inferior, it won't be long before you're no longer qualified to speak to me. ”
Jim looked at the car in the distance, and said without knowing what came to mind.
After saying that, he reopened the car door and got into the cab, started the car, turned on the radio, tuned to the financial channel, and headed in the direction of the car sales company.
