    I really am surprised whenever they buy cars. They never seem to make any money on them.

    They make money by being the main stars on a popular TV show. Wink

    True, but they are businessmen first, and losing money is no way to run a business.

    Their business is making money by losing money.

    The amount they lose making the show pales into insignifigance to what the make from the show.

    There's no way they can buy $1,000.00 worth of goods in one day and make $500.00 profit on the sale and cover their costs.

    Food, hotels and fuel would cost the pair of them $250.00 per day minimum. I wouldn't want to feed the little fat guy!
