what does your customer do for a living?

Everytime i click on the click and brag forum, i see these exotic cars that are out of the reach of most people. I wonder what do the owner`s of these car`s do for a living?, can the pro detailers that work on them shed some light?

Mostly Finance and Construction Management for my clients.

I had one client who owned a Cheese Company. Family owned for generations. Another one has a family owned commercial printing business. Other than that, most of my clients are rich kids from Hong Kong and going to school.

95 out of 100 are in Investment Banking or Derivatives. That`s the Lamborghini and Bentley crew. A few are in Prime Brokerage and Commodities, but not many.

Here is the good part, my highest grossing customer is in the kitchen remodeling business. By the way he spends, l bet he earns way in the deep 7 figures.

My high-end clients seem to be split between Lawyers, Physicians, Real Estate Developers, and Ball Players. Some racers, also. Yes, Danica drives a Lambo...

Go Hoosiers!

FINANCE.

You can have the MBA in much less time than any sort of MD.

My son-in-law is a Emergency MD, but earns much more thru some very clever investing and business management.

Work.... usually very hard

**Scottwax** · 04-10-2008, 02:50 PM

Strip club owner, warehouse/importing business owners, a few doctors, lawyers, investors, sports talk host, even a couple former Dallas Stars and a WWE wrestler.

Finance is pretty cake. I switched from Chem E, my GPA almost doubled (2.5 -> 3.9) and overall I enjoy it (and life) much more. You couldn`t pay me enough to go back to Calc 3 lol.

It`s gotta be something you love though, or else you`ll struggle with it. I`ve got a friend whose in the same field as me for the money (he really wanted to be a baseball coach), and man he *suffers*.
