    Yes, luckily they chose go-karts vs. motorcycles.

    Do you think he's really running Bridgetones on that bike or just has a sticker?

    I’ve done laps with him. Rides pretty good. Probably hurt some feelings here.

    Not like hurt feelings are hard to find around here :crackup:

    Sorry man, round here we run lap record pace and date supermodels. Get with the program.

    What's always funny to me is there are some here who do exactly that, that's why sweeping generalities don't work too well on the old beeb :D

    The man already qualifies on both counts. As in reality, unlike in one's mind, as most here do.

    Steeltoe What's my move?

    I was about to say he could buy the series and still retire FU rich.

    But those people don't brag and have fits about what sticker is on what bike :crackup:

    Truth, just still makes me laugh to think about it when others are bitching about how everyone on here is slow and has ugly wimmen :D

    J7O could take him in electric karts.

    He probably makes more in 1 day than both of them make in 1 week :bow:

    Adjusted it a little

    LH makes about $135k a day, 1 week close to $1M.

    The man is worth 300M. No probably about it.
     
  14. BigBird

    BigBird blah

    worth and actually have are two different things, but he did pull in an estimated $50M last year. so why do like this motorcycle things again? o_O :D

    Like the great Cardi B spoke to, I don't know how they say I'm worth millions, because it ain't in my bank account.

    Steeltoe What's my move?

    I read an article a while back he is on track to possibly be Britain's wealthiest athlete. Ever.

    This dude owns at least one beachfront hotel in the Caribbean and I don't mean an Econolodge.

    He's made his money now, it would be nice if he were like Kimi and started his own motorcycle team.

    I'm not saying he *has* 300M in his bank account (though I don't doubt he does). But if he's worth that much, he can definitely do it if he so pleased.

    Perhaps. But he did as you request, say, a few years ago, perhaps he wouldn't have $300MM today.

    The bloke is only 33 years old. $300MM doesn't last as long as it used to.
