| 0:00.0 | An entitled car salesman demands that I finance the car I'm trying to buy. |
| 0:04.5 | Claiming that by buying it outright, I would be denying him any kind of commission money |
| 0:08.9 | and that I would be hurting his family and kids by buying this car straight up. And I've never been more blown away by somebody's entitlement in my life. |
| 0:16.6 | Here's what happened. |
| 0:17.5 | So for a bit of background, after selling my motorhome and SUV, I had the cash to buy |
| 0:22.0 | our next car outright, and that's what I intended to do. I go find the car I wanted and I go to the |

| 1:01.5 | So I say to him do you want me to write a check |
| 1:03.8 | and wait for it to clear to pick up the car? |
| 1:05.8 | Or do I need to get a cashier's check right now |
| 1:08.0 | before the bank closes? |
| 1:09.3 | When I said this, he just gets up and leaves. |
| 1:12.2 | Literally 30 minutes passed by and I am furious at this point. |
| 1:16.0 | He comes back with a manager and they both try to get me to finance. They say to me, |
| 1:20.4 | this is how you build up your credit, but I responded that I already have a great credit score. |
| 1:25.2 | They then said you don't want to tie up this money. |
