This car was a gift from a father to his daughter, and he wanted to teach her a lesson.
The life lessons that parents impart to their children are crucial for their success in the future. While some parents prefer to entrust their children with tasks, others choose to provide guidance.
Another example is a father who decided to give his daughter an old, used car. He even thought about sending her off to find out how much the car was worth.
The father of a college student told his daughter, ‘You graduated with honors, so here’s a car I bought back then.’ Take it to the used car lot, pretend to sell it, and see how much the car is worth, he said.
The daughter came back from the used car lot to her father and said, ‘They offered me $1,000 because it looked so worn out.’
The father said, ‘Pawn it.’
The girl told her father that she had been to a pawn shop and that ‘the pawn shop offered $100 because it’s a really old car.’
The father persuaded his daughter to go to a car club so they could showcase the car.
After the girl was surprised by the last offer, she returned home and told her father everything. The father then gave her the instruction he had been conveying all along:
Since it was a Nissan Skyline R34, an iconic and highly coveted vehicle, several club members made an offer of $100,000 when the daughter drove the car into the facility.
The father concluded, ‘I wanted you to know that the right place appreciates you in the right way. If you’re not appreciated, don’t be upset; it just means you’re not where you should be. Who knows how much someone would value you? Avoid places where nobody respects you.’
