    You’re seriously underestimating the potential value of 7, definitely pick that instead of 5.

    The most expensive car ever sold was a 1955 Mercedes Benz coming in at around $140 million.

          Where the heck would I store five cars worth millions of dollars.

          How the hell would I find a buyer who would reliably pay me those millions of dollars without ripping me off or stealing it before I could sell it.

          I live in Canada. Those cars would disintegrate before I got them to somewhere capable of storing them.

          I would much rather have $20 million now in my account. Even in cash would be manageable.

            In both situations you hire somebody to deal with that for you. I know just as much about car storage and art insurance as I am with dealing with millions in cash. Investing would be amazing but I’d also somehow screw myself with taxes.
