I saw over the weekend another aution on Speed. It was from England and most of the starting bids were 1 million dollars. They had one Rolls that if you wanted to bid on it you needed to antie up at 1 million or you couldn't bid on it. I saw this girl put down over 5 million on another rolls like it was nothing. Where do they get their money from? Those brits would embarass Ron Pratte. |

they do save alot by not using dentists but Ron pratte buys to many cars, i hate him....but this years auction didnt have very many high dollar cars as previous ones did....i only saw some of it but i think one of the most expensive cars was one that was being donated and the $$ was for charity |

Remember the rich stay rich when the economy tanks because there's always $ to be made (think mortgage fiasco's or futures)...its the lower/middle class that feels the pinch. |
