Kevin Wants Me To Give Him 1 Million Dollars... 

The minute someone suggests the cars would be rented every single day, that's all you need to know to throw their proposal in the shredder. LOL

Rob just fixed Kevin's high school assignment from a grade of C- to an A.

More business videos, please Rob. Learning from people who have been doing it for years, especially for free here on RU-vid, is a gold mine. Thank you in advance!

I’m a business banker for a large bank and Kevin is most likely not a kid, I receive inquiries like this for loans once in a while. Only the three F’s invest into someone’s new business: Family, Friends or Fools.

who else thought he was being sued?

Lemonade stands do well in the summer too Kev

If Ed Bolian isn't doing this in ATL, proooobably not worth doing.

I would love to see you produce a business series

Kevin may be a 14 year old in Norway.

I knew Kevin was 14 year old kid from the suburb when he thought people would rent the cars back to back.

Rob says you can’t serve pasta 365 days a year 🍝

Business plan Step 1) rob gives me money Step 2) I buy my lots of expensive dream cars Step 3) other people give me money too Ideally this business proposal should be hand written in crayon

I thought this would be Rob roasting someone.... This was actually quite constructive.

This looks like a high school project 😂😂

I am looking to start a spaghetti business,Mr. rob I would like 330k from you to help me get your sauce out for everyone else to enjoy.

Hey rob, I need a small loan of a million... For uh.... Things. I'll getchu back. I swear.

Today Mr. Spaghetti critiques some undercooked meatballs

Let's not toss this guy [Kevin] in the dumpster, I give him applause for AT LEAST thinking bout busting out of the norm of crawling thru life. He is using his gray matter to achieve his goals in life. Thank you Rob for breaking things down and giving Kevin a path to move forward.

To Kevin's credit, if he is indeed a 14 year old kid, he is actually taking the time to come up with an imaginary business plan and putting it to paper, which even most adults don't do. So I do hope he learns from this video and applies what he learns to whatever he comes up with next, who knows he'll be a multi millionaire someday. Cheers to you Kevin, best of luck.

This was a sharp and objective scrutiny. I appreciate that you gave 'Kevin' credit where its due, and not shredding him for the rookie assumptions he laid out. No mention was even made for either taxes, licensing, or depreciation.

Would love more business consulting videos... The best lessons are those learned at others expense. 108 likes, one dislike, guess kevin saw this already... I feel youtube or something similar will replace most higher education because of all the cumulative expert advice avail for free on demand. A lot more valuable IMHO than a piece of paper...

I personally really enjoyed this. I feel this entire thing was just common sense if you know anything about business management or even just the simple thought that there are costs associated as well as down time for repairs (and often at that).

What a shameful attempt of a business plan...... I hope Kevin is just some random 12 year old proud of learning multiplication.

More business videos please

Today Mr. Spaghetti doesn't want to share his ingredients.

Some people have no idea the costs of being a business owner. Associates cost, Risk, benefits, cost of maintenance, cost of miscellaneous costs - car washes, tires, oil changes, damages services provided = merchant services, marketing, website cost, building cost, state and federal taxes. Amazing vid. Hopefully this helps out this young entrepreneur understand that being a business owner is more complex than one thinks.

Kevin builds castles in the air🤦🏼‍♂️ 🏰 ⛈

does he not get that atlantas airport is only that busy because its mainly a connection hub, 85% of those people will never leave the terminal. lol...does he also.forget taxes overhead ect.. he would bankrupt in the airport parking lot watchin all that untapped money fly away

Honestly, this was 100000x more interesting than another video on that god-forsaken flat bed truck you've ruined. PLS MORE BUSINESS SPAGHETTI MAN

Hey RF. Interesting vid. As a student of business, I have learned that all businesses have the same dynamics and characteristics (for the most part) involved from start up through seeing it to fruition. I'm amazed how many people have wet dreams that they think they can become successful with. Most people don't even know or understand the difference between marketing and advertising. Rob your a good man for your willingness to educate others

1. Craft sketchy business plan. 2. Borrow some Rob Spaghetti meatballs. 3. ??? 4. Profit!

More business talk please. As a former small business owner I find this stuff super interesting and you articulate it very well.

I’m from Minneapolis there was an exotic rental company that just closed. They mainly did car storage and other services, the rentals was something they added down the line. They had a Bentley GT, McLaren 650s, 458, and Lamborghini Huracan. Decent selection and I think they would have a car out 1-2 times a week. Always gone for the weekends but they had to end it since they couldn’t insure them anymore. That’s an extra cost that’s hard too control.

This was more informative than some of the business channels i watch. In shorter time. Great dissection.

This probably had something to do with like a highschool class assignment, come up with a simple business plan to not fail the class.

Every bullet you fired at Kevin's proposal hit its mark. I have a new found respect for you. Thanks for the insight!

Maybe its vinwiki ed playing a prank 😂😂

There is a reason a small percentage of people actually have successful business'. You handled that very well and look forward to seeing more of this type of video!

This sounds more like he's trying to scam.

I have seen so many crazy people starting a restaurant, but never having worked in a restaurant. They go broke before the year ends.

Don’t forget cost of lawsuits .......................………

People come in to my office wanting me to review their business plans constantly. It’s always the Startup, basic expenses and liabilities they never really account for.

Regardless of Kevin's age and inexperience, I give him credit for having an idea, putting together a business outline and thinking outside the box about how to come up with a partner/financing.

As a small business owner, this was entertaining purely for laughs. First year business revenue of $500k would be ambitious and planning a $2-300k loss and this guy thinks he's going to make $4M profit? Awesome.

What about servicing costs, down time, taxes and the thousand other things that come up with any business.

PLEASE do more business related videos. As a business student I love hearing from the experience of someone who knows how to run a difficult business succesfully

This sound like some high school project I would have done lmao whose kid wrote this

I've been in heavy equipment rental for a little over a year. I have no idea how much it transfers over to exotic cars, but today most of our fleet sat on the lot. Looks like it will for another week. On top of that, a good chunk of money that does come in goes right back out via insurance, maintenance, unpaid bills, unpaid damages, and upgrading the fleet. Even on our most popular items, 50% utilization is really pushing it. The only time high utilizations really comes in is with long term (> 1 month) rentals, which are not especially common.

No way to have 100% utilization with those prices in an over saturated market

I know the feelin. Number one question I get all the time is "What do you do to afford these cars". Followed by "Can you help me start a business to buy one of these cars." Most people put business plans together with emotions and 2 dimensional thinking. I could go on and on. You did give Kevin some good advice.

Houston from royalty exotics said in a forbes in a interview that they make 500k a month except they have over 50 vehicles

That was a good breakdown. My brother is very naive like Kevin. They always navigate through life with a certain amount of hubris and naively look at all the Real cost of overhead.

Give him 1 million Venezuelan dollars. 😂👌🏽

Gotta give Kevin a bit of props. He's taken steps that most people don't even get to. Even a half assed plan and reaching out to potential investors is a lot farther than most people get. I think the best advice you gave is for Kevin to get a job at a car rental company, doesn't even have to be an exotic car rental company. Learn a lot more about the business and find out if it's still something he wants to pursue. And yes, I'd love more business related videos.

I want business advice videos

The world needs more videos like this and more people like Rob who tells it like it is... and no bullshit. Well done sir.

Kevin is really, Usman Faruq Hakeema from Nigeria

Please please do more like this, you are a great businessman with so much knowledge to share. Thank you

Don't open up a spaghetti place in a neighborhood without a spaghetti place because the market hasn't demanded one. Find a neighborhood with a thriving spaghetti place and then compete against them. The market has already shown that it will support one spaghetti place, it will probably support two, and all you have to do is be better than that other place.

I like the business vids. People like to meme on you a lot but you are smarter than you appear and people could learn a lot from you.

Kevin already disliked smh.

Kevin is hiding under your car as we speak with a box cutter.

Also, doesn't Ed Bolian have or had an exotic car rental business in or around Atlanta?

Having been a partner in a software company, I can state from experience that Kevin is missing a lot of crucial details. Good start, but as Rob states, he's several steps away from a viable business plan.

Yes for business videos

I don't watch your videos often but when I do I enjoy them. It was nice of you to take your knowledge and share it with this person who wants to start a business.👍

Rob just gave Kevin a wake up call!

I think you were extremely constructive and professional not even from a specific business perspective but a general business one. Many of the ideas you touched in are very very readily applied to other areas. I have shown this to people who want to get involved in my business as a learning experience and honestly wish more people would be this straight forward but exceptionally polite. Your a stand up guy, thank you for the insight and a tool to help people learn.

this is basic business knowledge you can apply this to any company, and I think Kevin was a clueless kid.

I have had my business in trucking for 17 yrs and I still get blown away by how incomplete people’s ideas are of costs and how much it really costs to do business today.

Don‘t hate on kevin.. these are exactly(!) the kind of epic get-rich-quick man-maths business plans I came up with when I was a teen and didn‘t even know you had to pay VAT or anything of the sort. It‘s all a learning curve. And I‘m sure Kevin will learn damn quick when he hasn‘t rented out a single car for 2 months and has an overhead of 100k/month. But then his next project will be much more profitable thanks to everything he learned here. By the way rob you missed out on naming this video ‚we need to talk about kevin‘

Rob, absolute truth. A business plan to gain funding is the most essential proposal one must create in order to gain funding from a 3rd party. I had to create one a while back in order to do storm clean up, it was literally 5 pages long, included a full breakdown of expenses, including labor and materials required, as well as consumables (in this case it was chainsaw oil, blades, and fuel). So to see you holding a two page plan for this type of business, I knew right away that it would be seriously lacking in content. Please, take the time to do more business related videos, as people need to know how business actually work, what is truly required to start a business, and how to keep a business profitable.

Hey while you're at it Rob, I'll take a cool million. Thanks bud.

... So where did the pan the guts he just filed out of "Kevin" go... LoL

Rob is going to get an email from the parents: "How do you live with yourself? Crushing the dreams of a 14 year old!"

Kevin is a good example of people who see something and want to try their hand at it, but don't understand how the business actually works or what it entails.

This is good stuff, a reality check if you will!

Kevin. Keep at it . Keep building planning pushing learning. We all have to start on the ground and go up from there

Ed bolian needs to get on this lol

I get the feeling that Rob learned his knowledge the hard way. But he definitely looks like he knows the bizz. I know he owns (or partly owns) Gotham dream cars

First ad that came up was some random business wanting investors, did not say once what the business actually is...lol. first time I've ever seen that and it was on your vid.

I'm Kevin. Thanks for the help. Sounds like I've got more work to do. Ohh.....by the way, I'm 18

Yes for the business videos

You should do this as a series because you have hands on experience and you go very in depth into it and it would help others create jobs possibly

Thanks Kevin now we get to get buisness lessons from Rob

Yes Rob please keep doing this. Not only is it educational but also entertaining for those of us that want to get to where you are. Please please please keep it up

You should fix your website Rob. Under McLaren MP4-12c details it says 570s it only knows how to go fast lol obviously two totally different cars.

When I worked at the Ford Assembly Plant in Oakville, Ontario there was an exotic rental business basically across the street and even though they were basically in the middle of nowhere (no houses for miles) they still got good business from the plant employees (mainly retirees and management). Also made for some great drives home at 3-4am with my GT-CS, a 420hp WRX, a Gallardo, and a big turbo S14 all going down the empty highway.

I think business videos are a cool idea

Today Mr. Spaghetti tells us how he won't give Kevin 2 million meatballs because it's not that easy to make a plate of spaghetti.

It's just a small loan of a million dollars Rob

I feel Kevin's best way of getting his hands on a bunch of super cars,is to buy a bucket and sponge.

Mr. Spaghetti gives business advice, but fails at basic elementary punctuation.

Would love to see more videos. Surprisingly enough, there is a lot of information that applies to all aspects of life instead of just "car rentals."

I would also like 1 million dollars... If anybody has an extra couple million laying around that they want to give away.

Here my idea for a small business, evaluate this! Parking in a Fred Meyer's parking lot one day, I noticed the car in front of me it's plastic headlights lenses were so yellowed I don't think much light could get through them, from where I was sitting looking around I counted 8 more cars with very yellowed headlight lenses, drove around the parking lot for a minute and counted about 40 cars with yellowed headlights, it gave me an idea for a business where I walk through parking lots placing flyers on windshields of cars that have yellowed headlights, warning them of the dangers of not being able to see good with the yellowed headlights and that I offer a mobile "do em anywhere" headlight lens polishing service. I look at the amount of yellowed headlights out there on cars and I think I could keep busy forever! Tools and polishing materials would be minor expense, curious what Rob thinks about this idea and what would be a good/fair price for such a service?

Lol I live in buffalo, not many rich here I’ll tell you that.

First thing I was ever told about marketing is if someone says "word of mouth" marketing in their business plan you run

Lol life isn’t easy But I don’t beg for money I work with what I got.

You are the most down to earth rich guy I could ever imagine. Just keep being you.
