Ryan Quote #3

Quote from Ryan in Everybody Hates the Ninth-Grade Dance

Drew: Oh, man, a car dealership? Man, that is so cool. You should sell Ferraris.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] He'll have to steal them first.
Julius: A car dealership? All I see is a vacant lot.
Ryan: That's 'cause you got no vision.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] No, that's because it's a vacant lot.
Julius: Look, you know how people have their cars repossessed, right? Well, you could buy those cars at an auto auction for, like, three, $400, then sell them for four times as much.
Drew: Oh, man. Then we could use the extra money to buy a new car.
Julius: You know I don't like loaning money.
Ryan: No, don't think of it as a loan. You're letting your money work for you. Think of it as getting your money a job.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] Looks like my dad's getting a snow job.
Julius: How much you need?
