    What a odd statement considering there was a Landrys and Landrys was a profitable business long before ever associating themselves with the Rockets. Landrys was a profitable business before Leslie Alexander ever even owned the Rockets.

    dude just stop.

    How do you know he purchased those cars and not leased them or maybe just borrowed them from the dealer.

    why are you counting another man's money?

    Hahaha you sound financially inept yourself. As in leasing these particular cars is a better financial decision. Loll worry about your own check to check life.

    someone obviously doesn't understand leasing high end luxury cars can be a beneficial choice based on the situation. Luxury automobile brands make the best lease values, dollar for dollar, than other brands due to high lease-end residual values relative to MSRP

    People who lease high end cars like the convenience of a fast/easy transaction, want to switch cars every two or three years or even sooner, like having no maintenance and repair headaches, and like avoiding disposing of used cars. They also like the option of minimizing cash outlay. Being money-wise is a typical characteristic of high-end car leasers. They are not trying to save a few bucks. they have the cash to buy whatever car they want. They simply know that it’s not smart to put money into depreciating assets when that money could be used for more productive purposes.

    Carl Landry might have given landry's greater name recognition in addition to the free publicity given to the chain by the Rockets.


    landry's doesn't touch my personal cooking. Not my style unless a company footed the bill kinda like with the landry gift cards. I wouldn't refuse a landry gift card.

    What?

    You have no idea what you are talking about if he leased a car he would not be a liable for the numbers you pulled out of your ass.

    i am not the one concerned about another person's financials that you have no idea about.

    I understand plenty, and have over a decade of experience in private equity, investment banking, corporate debt, and have a solid grasp of tax planning as the PE shop I was at also had a tax planning arm. I have negotiated high end car leases as a favor to some high net worth individuals who are close friends. I literally could write a book on this stuff and know exactly what the benefits are, but this is a bball forum and will definitely not be interesting to anyone on here, and you seem like you already know everything.

    if any of this were true, no way would anyone just disregard leasing a high end vehicle so easily as a legitimate option. but people will portray themselves in anyway to save face

    I doubt Harden or PJ purchased the Rolls Royce vehicles...Tillman owns the RR & Bugatti dealership. Maybe the 2 RRs are "company leased" vehicles.
