    Re: When money does not matter.

    Dang, $10,000 and a month sounds a bit overkill. Could also be interpreted as one of the slowest car washes out there too, even. But hey, if the footballers are happy, then who am I to criticize?

        It said he polishes every part of the car five times. Why?

        If I polish everything ten times can I charge $20,000?

        If I do that, what if someone starts polishing things twenty times? I'll have to up my game to forty times! That would be 8 times more than Sahota. That would be 2,000 hours. I would have to have the car for up to 8 months! I'm not sure anyone would allow me to keep their car for 8 months.

        Eight months. You know what would happen? My competitor would keep his clients car for 16 months and claim to do a better job. Then I'd have to come back with at least 32 months. Next thing you know, I'll just be keeping the cars at my place permanently and allowing the owner to come over and look at it. For a price, of course.

        A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

          Isn't Paul Dalton in Britain? I wonder what he thinks of this 'new' guy.

            I was wondering that at first. But I really don't think it bothers him. If I remember correctly, he was booked out in advance for something like 8 months.
