You could . . . either be a sexy woman showing you can shoot straight and/or drive. . . or go after the young crowd with cartoons or something(which is better, really, as they're easier to please). Or, you can think of something more suited to yourself and hope you fill a void.

It amazes me how many haters are on forums. everyone comes from all different walks of life. if parents buy a kid a nice car great. i have always had nice cars also, i can say i also paid for all of my cars and motorcycles as i also make more money than my parents. paid for my house, wedding, college all with no help.

Good for you! Most folks under 40 today, simply have no clue. Good on 'em and all, but it's different when you work hard for it in a real way, paying your own bills as you go, particularly if you work your way through college on your own, while paying the rent/mortgage, etc.

Might be legit. Claims to be 20... says he works for Google. Has a YouTube channel with over 250,000 subs.

You work at Google, then chances are you can afford 2 nice cars. One of the Marketing reps that works for Google drives a Ferrari 599 (I would have chosen the La Ferrari or 458 italia, but whatever).

Competition is fierce to get a job at Google. I've known people who persisted for 10+ years to finally give up and go work for NVIDIA instead.

There's an older, and not so great movie called Antitrust with... Oh hell I forget his name, Ryan something. Anyway. It portrays the kind of competition and how they recruit fairly accurately minus all the sub-plots and other B.S. in the movie.


Google has in recent years gotten a lot of complaints about the parties the interns they invite up to the campus for a semester have. Apparently they are pretty outrageous, especially when you have people who work non-fantasy-life jobs in the non-fantasy-real-world-that-is-not-Google-employment and trying to sleep so you can get up and go to work at 5am. hehehe. -- The whole purpose of the internships is to weed out candidates who don't share the Google philosophy, and choose only the best and brightest of an already best and brightest group.

Either the kid is lucky as hell, or smart as hell, and either way, I tip my hat to him out of respect for the skills and talent required to work there. I chose another route. Instead of being a good boy back in the 1980's, I was hacking anything and everything, was offered a job, nearly got sued and under investigation (i was innocent) all at the same time, and at the age of 14. After that I lost my taste for it and thought it best to step away from the computer. If I'd had a good mentor, I might have continued on and ended up at Microsoft or Apple, but my parents were simple working class folks and I was pretty lost in my teenage years. The skills are still there, but the talent shriveled up from lack of use. Oh well.

It's kind of sad in some ways. The competition to drive around in one of Google's little digital mapping cars is even pretty fierce and doesn't pay much at all.

He posts videos on YouTube and gets paid. YouTube is owned by Google. He doesn't technically work FOR Google. It is a technicality of sorts.

Yes I read that after I wrote the post. That doesn't make him any less worthy though. His skill sets are simply different and he is capitalizing on them and honing them at a young age. Excellent work and nice Vette too.

[Raven87]

Some of you guys need to lay off the OP.

You could not sound more jealous if you tried.

[Camarotobeornottobe]

So, we trust he really did buy the cars. Got it. Let's move on.

No way he really has a girlfriend. Discuss.

[_Onyx_Wolf_]

he makes videos of dolls...:f acepalm::f acepalm:

[KevinK]

Kudos to you Logan for your hard work, ...at 20 you've accomplished what some 'adults' can only dream of.
Congrats on the purchases, enjoy, ...in the best of health

Cheers

Just curious, what do those of us under 40 not have a clue about?

[zissophiss]

I tried to watch one of the OPs videos and for the life of me I cannot understand how money can be made doing that. I guess that just goes to show that the old PT Barnum saying is truer than ever. "There's a sucker born every minute."

I know I could make some seriously stupid videos. Maybe I should just go for it. OP you have inspired me.

[BubbaSS]

OP has Superior mesenteric artery syndrome which is potentially terminal. The videos began as updates to his condition and have evolved into what they are today.

The butthurt is strong in this one. Get a grip.
