a truck driver could do that if they saved long enough.
I am gonna guess you mean;

Owner of a trucking company w Millions of $$$ in net worth... otherwise, I am gonna guess you didn't understand the question.

IF I can remember the 7 magical numbers for PowerBall, I could do that. Not sure it would be quite as sweet, but I'm more than willing to take a deep bite of that treat!!!

Probably an investment banker who just got their bonus.

I am sure people who have total asset of $500m, and net of $100m would be effected A LITTLE. People who are multimillionaire just do not carry full of cash. They probably need to transfer few of their holding into checking. (from savings, money market acct, safe dep, safe, etc).
those guys tend to invest little more, so they are little less liquid than M2,M3.

Really? I know lots of truckers, (freight, referigerated, tanker, etc etc), and owner&operator guys. Although "owner&operator" may make more money than average MBA graduates, but they don't have enough cash to pay stuff like $100k car in cash.

The few people that I know that are in the position that I described are all multimillionaire business owners and all outside of the US. All buy in cash and are all extremely liquid... like millions of cash liquid. That's one of the major differences between this country and others.

US - Cash Flow, Leverage, Credit
World - Liquidity, Cash Piles

In Nigeria, there is no such thing as "Car loan". When you go to Lagos all you see are RR's (not Range rover), Lambos and Maybachs, some 911 GT3s.. all paid for in CASH!

My previous boss. (Owner of the Miami Dolphins) and Developer Stephen Ross lives that lifestyle. This guy doesn’t believe in paying anyone interest. When you have a yacht, and a helicopter on it, you know you reached a level of success that many of us dream about. Then again, he works 24/7 365 days. The man lives to work.
