Average time for me to flip one is less than 6 months, the more cars I buy the more I have on the lot the more money I make, can't make those kinds of returns in the stock market on a regular basis.


That's great, I love flipping stuff for a buck as well. But that's work/business, not investing. Investing is using your capital to make money off of other people's work.
