Friends don’t let friends buy Litecoin
Let’s pretend you won a $100,000 gift card at bingo night that you can use at Al’s Auto Emporium. As we all know, Al’s Auto Emporium features almost every car imaginable-luxury, exotic, family, foreign, electric, diesel- Al even has hydrogen cars in stock! You walk the lot, Sammy the friendly used car salesman is more than eager to help you spend your $100K gift card. You test drive a high-end 2020 Mercedes and appreciate its comfortable ride, tight steering, and soft leather seats.
You’re thinking you are going to pull the trigger on the Mercedes when Sammy says, “Hey do you know about our special on the 1991 CRX?” “Special?” you think. “Tell me more Sammy, I’m listening.” Sammy proceeds to explain how Al accidentally got an over delivery of the 1991 CRX and he needs to move the vehicles to make room for the 2008 Saturn Astra’s every collector is searching for. In an effort to move the CRX quickly, if you buy 3 CRX’s you will get the 4th for free!
“How much is a CRX, Sammy?” you retort quickly.
“They are a bargain. Each one is $10,000. If you use your entire gift certificate you can get 13 vehicles instead of 1 with Al’s promotion! Not to mention that the CRX gets better mileage at over 40 miles per gallon, has lower maintenance, and did I mention, you get 13 of them?”
