Personally I have bought, sold, loaned and borrowed with other members on this site and have had nothing but good experiences. I have yet to meet anyone in person from RDP that I didn't like. RDP members have always gone out of their way to help other's including myself.

Carry on!

Looks like he’s up to date . No dog in this fight as I got my set. But damn dude keep your word and man up.

Violated the RDP trust for sure.

This shit definitely went totally sideways. At the beginning it was fine, then I get shafted by the guy which I don't think was his fault as he got sick, but none the less my name is on it, I own it, and I will own it until it's done, period.

I made some mistakes after by trying to help more people to make up for it and overcompensate.

I still have people from RDP calling me every week and I help them with zero issues.

Also, you are right, a lot of excuses, as it was shit for me too.

Please DM so we can finish it up.

I don’t think the tire guy is the same guy RD has been hinting to. He would have had to been slinging tons of tires to think he could go rack up $30k bills around town.

Plus RD mentioned the person he was talking about had a sister event to SCFW.
That was my mistake!

But seems we have uncovered more.

Over 4 million dollars worth of shit in that garage, and that’s going off currently market value. All from customizing cars, right…🤣

Feel for you guys that got taken by the tire guy but honestly thought it would be a bigger player from the little hints put out there in the last week or so . Maybe I’m just not understanding the magnitude of how many members were duped by this guy and it’s bigger than I’m thinking. Don’t get me wrong losing that money would piss me off to.

Hopefully you guys are made whole.
When he posted all hell broke loose on his thread. Everybody jumped on it wanting tires. It was like a White Party Invite. Pretty funny actually. That was ALOT of tires he had to deliver on

Exactly.

Owning it and actually making the right shit happen are two different things. It absolutely crazy how many people got scammed In this deal now that it’s coming out. Continually stealing people’s money when he knows he couldn’t deliver. It’s always lies on top of lies to cover up 10 lies ago. I gave him the chance to send money back to and that wasn’t an option. Anyone that believes anything about it was legit at this point is blind as f%*^.

In the mid 90s, one of my clients owned a 240D. I think they were only made in '73 and '74, so this tub of shit was at death's door. The guy was oblivious to his surroundings at an 8.75 on the Biden Scale. While entering freeways, he would just keep chattering as eighteen wheelers roared by inches away.

As the tired engine blew out a black smokescreen wall like a WWII destroyer attempting to escape the Japanese Navy, I was trying to punch a hole in the floorboard pushing on my imaginary accelerator pedal and praying God would take care of my family after the funeral was over.

:oops:
Still a ton of those older Mercedes diesels running around the world. One of my son's can do a great impersonation of a 300D sound. Those things will still be running in 150 years.

They don’t make any power to hurt them selves. On old school diesel you probably didn’t even half to worry about oiling. It will be one of the last running engines as it will run on just about anything.

Look at the stock threads. RDP’ers pick more winners than Nancy Pelosi! No one ever picks a loser.
I just have to comment on this post…….

We purchased Peabody Energy at $22 per share. It was the lowest is ever was at the time. Then, when it lowered to $11 per share, we bought a lot more, since it was at an all time low, and could only go up. Today it is worth approx $4 per share.

I lost my ass on this stock……… LOL I still own it.

Are you talking about the right Peabody (BTU)? It's at $27.80/sh right now. I bought at $1.80 and up 1,200%. Unfortunately didn't buy enough. I have plenty of loser stocks from following RDP stock picks. Some I exited too soon (after 3-4 years of downward movement), sold and now those stocks are gaining. Figures. It's all in the entry / exit price and time horizon.

I don't think anyone brings up stock pick losses or passes blame to RDP as the individual has to make the trades and it's not investing in someone's private company or endeavor. Intentions are good, and we're all here to better ourselves financially (in this case).

The other day I was catching bass on a cranckbait I bought for $1.50 when Kmart closed .
For kicks I tied on a fancy $20 Japanese model I had, . . . caught 1 fish on it, and put it away . . . my cheap ass didn't wanna lose it. 😄
Talk about 'Levels'. 😆

Interesting thread.
Dont ever get into Marlin fishing… $80 is a cheap lure… If you have out riggers out, you may have 5-7 of them in the water at one time.

Fishing saltwater… go buy “1 scoop of live bait”, then go burn 150 gallons of fuel…

Stick to Freshwater fishing… your wallet will love you.

Wasn't that the Skater at Desert Storm a few years back that the guy had built then put up for sale right after? I remember seeing pics of it on that trailer thinking, Damn that is a tilt trailer.
Yes, I think he used it once or twice and said it was too big.

Yep. It was a custom custom tilt trailer. Has the most degree of tilt of any tilt trailer ever built.
It was also the DS where both Skaters were supposed to be in the middle of the street fair and got bumped to the area around Albertsons. After that Skater stopped being a sponsor of DS.

I wonder where they store those boats and cars. Hopefully an indoor warehouse. I imagine they will sit a long time before they go to auction. Doesn’t seem like a 600k judgement would call for taking a 2 million dollar center console and that skater plus the cars. Interest or not, that’s pretty lopsided. Who knows what’s in the safe too. I’m guessing the Feds are taking his shit for a different reason

I few days ago someone showed me a short on IG (from a realtor) in a garage with a silver center console, and some red cat the was near vertical on a trailer, and some other toys. I had not seen a trailer that steep of tilt, which is why i remember it. I just glanced at it, so didnt catch what brand of boats they were. I wonder if the video was of this place.
Is this the one you're talking about? BIG BALLER YOU 🙌 😎

If it’s in fact money laundering then I’m assuming all assets are seized. Judgments are additional.

I will join you.
Bought SAVE (Spirit Airlines) during C19 for $8/share and sold at $24
Bought LUV (Southwest) at same time and doubled on that.

There were a few other trades on SAVE with buys at $12 and sell at $18.

Then this. Bought at $6 as the stock was supposed to sell off around $30+ if the merger went through. Sold at $9 right after merger news started to turn bad.
Then I fucked up--Bought at $4 and watched it sink. BK news was lingering but so was a back story with a possible United interest. BK new hit--sold 2000 shares at $2 another 3000 shares at $1. Stock sits at 0.15 today.

This thread got all kinds of sideways quick. It never fails.

I look at that garage and I get tired just thinking of launching those boats.... definitely not a single handed affair... There will be those that say, you have people for that. That just means I have another person in my life I have to manage when I want less overhead and headache and more peaceful water time with the wife and I.......

At work give me all the accountability and headache you want.... but outside of work, I want a boat no bigger than 23' feet, I can easily manage by myself... a lauch ramp 500' away from my house, not a 30 min drive with a mountain of a boat to a busy launch ramp...

That whole program seems like a second job to me...massive truck, massive boats and associated maintenance that goes with them...even with people to manage it, I have to manage them and that's a real time suck...

I’ve seen a few ballers in my day that their house of cards collapsed around them. Especially in this business. Guys buy up shit as fast as you can find it for them, and then sell it all as fast as they can a year later.

I’m right with you. The less people and less hassle the better. Wife and I enjoy our time together and if I need more drama or hassle, it’s always out there. Some people just like being constantly around friends and family and a lot of huddle and bustle and entertaining every weekend, big group trips and gatherings etc.
Occasionally is ok..maybe 😉

This is exactly why I dumped the whole river program last year.

The drive out, getting all our shit in the water, set up on the beach, set up at the trailer, then undo-ing it all at the end of the weekend and driving home consumed more time than I had to sit and enjoy it....too much like work.

After moving to havasu I learned real quick I was spending to much energy to relax.

I have a 22 boat now that stays in the garage hooked up to the truck, if I have a few hours to burn after the kids get out of school we run down to the lake for a bit. Simple is better for me
