Should be required viewing for HR/Admin as they develop compensation models.
RickyScott and sirspamalot!.. medgator low to mid millions per year likely. I’m employed so I get my one car every 10 years from CarMax.

Move over Bob Timmerman... The guy in the vid is now my rad onc hero.
All I know is gold doubloons are a wonderful exfoliant
I wish, in my old days 2M/yr was doable. Now, I'm just a lonely # type of guy.
But, I have 2 "things" going on that could result in some nice outcome(s). Stay tuned.

And here I am debating whether I should "treat" myself by buying a 50K genesis to upgrade from my 13 year old car
Debating things is what we do. It's generally not necessary. Either way you go things will be fine
I've always envied those who can just decide to buy or do something without endless internal debate.
I bet I could take that guy in the esses at COTA in our factory-built Honda Civic Si HPD TC race car. Straights would be an entirely different issue.
I'm rolling in something, but it ain't money!
Corrected that.....
Probably an IMG that matched radonc 20+ years ago.
The doc I replaced in our practice had it like that. Honestly.... I don't think I can name a single person from my cohort that has it like that.
I bought a house in a desirable city this winter #YOLO
Dude you just doxxed medgator, not cool, mods please remove

I believe that rad onc was part of an initially very lucrative physician investor rad onc "real estate venture" that basically went belly up a few years ago. They were raking it in at the beginning (millions a year) but then competitors pushed back with their own ventures, and Mr. Stark caught up with the non rad onc investors and management company.
How does medgator make so much money lol, does he own a machine or something
I heard he was in the drug cartel and invested in bitcoin early.
same girl
The other car enthusiasts in the video are in sales, oil and gas, natural gas commodities trading, Internet BS like SEO and affiliate marketing, UFC. High finance like PE and quant and FAANG are notoriously absent. My guess is this is on the gulf coast. I’m too lazy to look up the YouTuber’s location and city.
Anyways, the fact that we have a guess as to the identity of this rad onc suggests such rainmaker folks are the rare exception rather than the rule, like the Beverly Hills plastic surgeon with the $80 million mansion.

Track was Circuit of the Americas in Austin, which explains the oil and gas and internet stuff. There are PE guys at those COTA track days and some Tesla guys as well, but anything in Texas will lean heavily towards oil and gas. Having said that, COTA is the only FIA grade 1 road course in the country and only F1 track in North America that hosts track days (Miami, Montreal, Mexico, and soon to be Vegas are all street courses), so enthusiasts from all over will bring their equipment to run it.
Best street car I've ever seen out there was a McLaren Senna. Owner even hired a pro for the day to see how much speed he could wring out of it.
I think OTN just doxxed himself. Mods, could you please remove.
Has anyone bought or driven a Rivian? I'm kinda interested in one.
I have several friends with them. They all absolutely love them. My only concern is regarding longevity of the company. If the company goes under, how easy will it be to get them serviced?
I sorta feel the same way about the company, though I did buy a bunch of stock earlier this year partly as an anti-Elon move, but mostly because all the press, etc seems to suggest that they are one of the stronger companies going forward. I presume this means something as well:
Tesla's Cybertruck Supply Chain Lead Quits to Work at Rival Rivian
Mustapha El Akkari, the Tesla group manager of raw materials who oversaw the Cybertruck supply chain, left the company to go to Rivian.
gizmodo.com
Particularly given how terrible the cybertruck looks, and Elon's admitted acceptance of poor QC.
Perhaps I'll wait a few years and see how things pan out.

They are well capitalized for now. Plus Amazon still has a big stake in them. Bezos won't let Elon own the EV space alone I'm guessing. Like blue origin to SpaceX.
I kinda like the cybertruck Halo warthog look. Hoping for matte gray with blacked out windows. Rivian is great for people who just want a normal looking truck, although it's a bit smaller than i expected. SUV looks sharp, seeing more of those
But with Tesla, you never can buy first 3-6 months off the line, unfortunately. Model 3 paint issues, model Y roofs flying off etc

Why is it that every Tesla I see has paint already coming off the hubcap? What is up with their QC?
Which ones? I'm guessing it's a 3 Y issue, the more expensive S and X hasn't had those problems. They really have grown way too fast at times. CS is abysmal/non-existent in some situations
Tesla seems to take it's design cues from thunderstorms, which is perhaps why they sell so well in CA. If noone remembers what a raindrop looks like, their cars look stylish. And the cybertruck looks to be inspired by a lightning bolt or something, which is to say, not something anyone who actually needs a truck would ever want to drive.

I'm the guy from the original post. Have had multiple EVs including the Rivian R1T. Feel free to ask any questions!

Not exactly. I'm still practicing at the same clinic, and we never went belly up.
What is your preferred dose/fractionation for simple bone mets?
Did you use electrify America much to long distance travel? The ones near me seemed empty/broken and read a story about it frying one rivian and making it undrivable.
Rivian is switching to the Tesla SC network now though per recent news which makes me think EA is probably dead in the water

I'm choosing between a 911 and r1s. Kind of polar opposites, but I'd imagine you know both. Which would you rather generally drive?
Buy the 911 and track it

The way god intended
I have the Mach E and love it. I’ve never read about EA frying a car, but hear lots of issues with broken stations.
It is my commuter/around the city car and we have an ICE. I charge at home and occasionally at one of our centers that has a plug. For a couple months when I got it, I didn’t have a charger at home and it was kinda annoying.
Personally I think it’s too early to go all electric if you road trip or go to rural areas/mountains/etc.
Just my opinion, this is pretty controversial I think.
Unless charging gets to the point that it takes a few minutes to “refuel” like a pump, then i just don’t see it being practical for many. I could see something like hydrogen which you can “refuel” quickly being more practical. The other question is where is the energy to get hydrogen or charging coming from? Much of it still comes from fossil fuels and we are not there at all to get most of it from renewable sources.
We have an EV and ICE right now, and I've yet to use a public charger in a year and a half, but of course, that's possible with 2 cars. I have a level 2 charger so doesn't take too long. But yes, if it were my only car I wouldn't have it. To your second point, I have enough solar panels to offset entirely house and EV consumption. It's pretty easy to pull of if you're willing and able to pay things up front, for example the power bill for the next 25 years or so presuming I can continue to sell excess power back to the grid for around what it costs.

R1s is just better in daily traffic, though i now switched over to EQS/Lightning/Lucid. All EV's are superior to ICE cars for daily use. I jump in my 911 Turbo S on special occasions though. I just wouldn't commute in any gas car anymore for a litany of reasons.
911 Turbo S is the shiznit. Noice.

If you own a home, charging is a non issue. Hydrogen is energy intensive to create, and the infrastructure will limit it to use in certain applications like mass transit or maybe construction vehicles. It's a non starter for the general public when BEV's are so damn good now.

EA is hit or miss. Other options will eventually supercede it, but for now, if you want to road trip an EV, Tesla is the best option, with their far superior SC network. These are the early days of electric transport, and in a decade range and charging will make ICE cars seem quaint. I am keeping my old gas cars in the collection either if they are manual transmissions, which offer a unique experience to connect with a machine, or track vehicles like the AMG GT3 from the video.

great tool for that job, but if you can only have one car, a Taycan gives you the EV goodness and Porsche feel, all in one. Just don't drive a Plaid though....that'll ruin you for all cars that you used to consider "fast," even a Taycan Turbo S.
