I like when wheelie bars are like that.... I always wonder why guys like finnegan won't put on wheelie bars... instead just keep destroying your car over and over.. unlimited money helps that though :)
It gets the clicks. And clicks gets the money. And money gets the power. And power gets the women.

Or something like that....

We all have our stations in life. Some get lucky, some bust their asses, and others live differently in the middle. I know I've given up a lot of stuff, for other things.
Gotta make life choices.
 
yeah.. it just makes me nuts seeing guys blow up 50k every other weekend and shrug it off :)
I have a feeling that may end sometime soon, or at least "eventually". Why do I say that? On FB alot (all?) of the ex-Motor Trend shows (Roadkill, Garage Squad, Roadworthy Rescues, etc) are putting-up "Who wants to see (their particular show) continue?" posts, and the only reason I can see to do that is to generate clicks, as there's no way the shows are going to be resurrected. It's kinda sad to see those posts, IMO, as all they are doing is pandering to their audience in order to get the clicks, so they can get the money.

Of course I could be wrong, but...

the majority of his money comes from his youtube channel now (mikes at least) over 1mil subs and a lot of clicks on his videos.. plus merch.. and probably straight patron subs (not sure on that) :)

Friebergers channel is ok... but it's just the same stuff over and over, i like david but have kinda had enough of the roadkill thing.

Mike's net worth in 2024 was 5mil.. i don't think he will stop blowing up stuff anytime soon.

P.S. just looked it up, he gets an avg of around 160k clicks per video which can pay upto $6400.. he pumps out 1-2 vids per week... even if its 5k a week that's still 250k a year just from youtube, although most weeks would be over double that.

I wasn't aware that Finnegan was born with a silver spoon, but $5M doesn't go as far as it used to, and at the rate he's going through things....

Personally I got tired of Frieburger a few years back when he started coming-off more and more with the "me" and "I" than the "you" and "we". Sure, he's accomplished a lot, but he didn't do it alone, and his tendency to subtly talk down (and sometimes talk-over) people just got old.

5m if invested goes quite a long ways.. add income from youtube and merch, appearance fees and all that.. plus getting parts for free or at cost, maching/building for almost nothing... that money can go a long way into keeping that car going

Nice work if you can get it, but I'm not supporting it.

And I never understand why perfect strangers/ordinary people send-in stuff to these guys. As if they need more free stuff....
 
I've never really watched any youtube or TV car stuff. It's usually boring, stupid, or I'm busy doing it for real.
