Really like this "Blue Collar Millionaire" series.
Yes, this is just the kind of content I've been wanting to see (but didn't even realize it)
Its motivational
He’s being sarcastic
@@beejel9628 , No one's being sarcastic here. The BCM series is good and inspiring. Please keep the negative energy to yourself.
and its a dodge so theyre always going to be in the dealership for service.. smart
Nice dig 👌
it’s any new car
probably be better off with a chevy dealership to rack up them service charges lol
lool
😆
I love this! I'm not an immigrant because I was born here but my parents are immigrants. In 2010 I made minimum wage $7.25 an hour washing dishes at a local restaurant. I lived in a one bedroom studio apartment that was a slum. My parents both worked crap jobs. I grew up in section 8 housing. Fast forward 10 years later and I make on average 30-60K per month and bought my first home in 2017. And a home for my parents as well as my dream car in 2017. A Ferrari 458 Italia. I love this guys story because I too was able to give back to my parents.
Living The Dash what do you do to make that much
Liar.
@@Njliving22 Stock trading at NYSE and real estate.
$10.25 an hour in 2011 for me to now $60 an hour. First generation immigrant
@@jamalnasir5648 awesome! Congrats!
I had no idea that East Indian immigrants work the fields. I learned something today! Much respect to the East Indians; they tend to succeed wherever they land.
@Heraldo Medrano no we just own the buildings in it, lol
+constitutionalist79 . they dont
Punjab is in North India, and yes the Punjabis are very sincere and hard-working folks.
Farming is the heart of Sikhism. It is a huge business in the state of Punjab, India where most of the Sikhs are from. In fact most of GDP is from farming industry in Punjab after industrial industry.
“Wherever they land”
I love how he has his parents live with him and how he bought the land for his father to manage post retirement.
....yep that's the indian joint-family system ..which is practiced by all(most of them) asians aswell....be it middle easterns or south asians or east asians or s.e.asians..
It is common for Indians to have multigenerational households.
@@universeofopulence Africans too
Love that part of our culture ❤
Well he is indian so thats how our culture is we all live together
It's called, "The American Dream" Hard work pays off.
Up until I saw his parents I thought he was Mexican 🇲🇽 I guess he's Punjabi. I know that because one of my boys is Punjabi Sik. 🇮🇳
His name is Jay Gill
Pendeho
Yep he's Punjabi
how did you not realize this by his last name? Also, Jay is certainly short for a much longer Indian name
@@jamalnasir5648 I know a dude named Jose Gil and he's Mexican
Really great story and congrats on this family's success!
What a WONDERFUL Success Story!!! GOD BLESS the Entire GILL FAMILY. JAY, YOU are an INSPIRATION.
Warmly,
Lay Chaplain Kelly Chase
Really glad his parents got to see him make it happen and become successful....Way to go, Champ..
Way to go..!!! 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏💯💯
I watch this and wonder wtf am I doing.
what I took from it is he's successful because of discipline and persistence. Good luck you can do it too if you want
Gotta start your own business. Then you have no limit on the amount of money you can make. Just hourly you can make a living it limited to how many hours you can work a week. High risk but also high reward.
exactamente
Same
I worked as a tech at a dealership that was owned and started by a Indian guy who came here with 2 pairs of pants and a shirt
That's how to treat your parents!
He just worked smarter & not harder. Way to go man, true inspiration 🙏
For me, the part of the video that stood out was @ 4:33 - his parents live with him in his big home. That is how you treat your parents. Way to go Jay.
Thats the typical Indian family. 2-3 generations stay in the same house :)
He has a dealership here in my town and they do sell cars like crazy
Beast Mode You actually want to buy from large dealers as they deal in quantity vs the small dealer they really aren’t going to budge.
$150 million a year works out that each dealership sells ONE $50k CAR A DAY.
@@OffGridInvestor sounds about right
Doubt this guy has ethical business practices.
@@rejuvenatingsoul3498 Why?
What's crazy is my family lives 15 minutes from here. My father is from Michoacan and worked on fields, milked cows, etc. He also owns his own preowned auto dealerships. These success stories are pretty common around here. Tons of hard working immigrants creating success in Cen Cal...
And u can do it too it doesn't matter where you come from if you have that work ethic thats all that matters keep up wish you the best
Saltue this man
For the fact that he is taking care of his parents
It is very common in India, in fact its the rule than the exception.
@@ennakavi2129 it's a law. If u don't take care of your old parents in Assam (north east India) , you are likely to pay double the sum you owe them
@@onodera387 and that law is applicable in whole India. Yeah, parent are not supposed to help children by law.
"Befriended people in the finance business I would actually ask them how to structure deals and
I learned that hey there's some good money to be made" 2:06. Great idea
Bless his heart for Given back to his family
Sukria baisap for the inspiration 🇺🇸🏅
Punjabi Sikhs have hard work and dedication embedded in them. Farming is in the heart of Sikhs and the state of Punjab. I guess that is what made them a rugged hardcore community. And being a race of warriors gives them the discipline and they thrive to be businessmen and not work for others.
Please keep your lies and ethnocentric nonsense with you, there are countless Punjabis who waste their lives and are good for nothing. Farming is in the heart of every Indian, every Indian is very hard working, every Indian has the discipline.
This guy killed it
Good to see that hard work and determination still pays off! Bravo sir.
@philip Trevor there are no limits to the amount of effort you can put forward. This guy built his empire from nothing, and so can anyone else.
Honestly this is really inspirational
Keep those videos coming great energy 👍
Well Done sir! U are a inspiration to all hard working men and woman! Continued Success!!!
inspiring story. love this Blue Collar Millionaire series
That's a very inspiring story! Wow!
hard work paid off...great job Jay
hats off
with dedication ,hard work and long term vision ,this simple man become a millionnaire.
What a lesson for everyone
Amazingly heart warming
No blaming the white man, no blaming the system. Dude went out and made it happen for himself and his family. That is the american dream.
Not blaming the black race, not blaming crimes, went straight for his success.
@@Woke365bla cks bl ame on everything
Car dealerships are the worst part of the car buying/ownership experience.
Also the biggest RipOff
Gut Instincts Podcast exactly how are they a ripoff? Most dealerships fail and go out of business because of how small the profit margins are. I think it’s like 2% on every car. That’s why dealers try to push and not negotiate because they won’t make anything.
@@ginasantiyan6842 it all depends on the dealership. I worked for one that was dirty, they purchased cars from up north in the rust belt for $2000 to $7000 less than you could down south. While the vehicles were less than three years old, they were still full of rust. And are sales department told us just look under them and if it looks bad use an empty lift and some cheap black spray paint form Lowe's. They then screwed over customers on it. they even went so far as to sell a wrecked car that had the airbags deployed prior to receiving as a certified pre-owned with no accidents on the title(was never reported, but it showed with bad paint and bodywork).
Thank god for Elon Musk
@@samdavisok eh. I agree holistically but am so turned off by the tesla sheep that i would never own one of his lovely products.
Love these stories
Truly inspiring.
Punjab to California. Success indeed 👍
Really awesome. Smart and hardworking guy with something to prove. Keep moving forward. Don’t take no for an answer. Don’t settle for anything less than you and your family deserve.

Jay good on u 4 making a difference. Because ya dad was a farmer doesn't mean that u should end up a farmer. Respect j
I really like seeing success stories like this. Good for him. This is awesome.
Why did CNBC make the video like those reality TV shows. Change the way you film and edit.
Great Story
Great story.
Wow! I'm impressed!
how many times they gonna mention "migrant farmer" without ONCE saying where he from
....he's from (east) India - state of Punjab.....yep it is true ...they shud've mentioned it..
Proud of Indian immigrants they have contributed so much to USA
This is what they mean when they say, 'American dream'. Amazing...
Blessings indeed 💙
Congratulation to you sir, I’m trilled to see another success story to another immigrant ....
2:05-2:12 made friends in finance business, learned from them.
CONGRATULATIONS Sir
great story
Well done
Good job friend !!👆👏👏
When I see the back-yard I get it, Jay.
Respect!!
Awesome
Inspiring non the less.
2:53 "He had to convince General Motors..." Shows a Chrysler product.
This is what happens wgen you get professional camera guys in. They KNOW NOTHING ABOUT what's being filmed and edit it completely stupidly. I seen other stuff showing engines being built and you see more of an art display than how the engines are ACTUALLY assembled.
Great.
A testament that poor people can make it if they really want to !
No. This guy story is inspirational and I’m happy for him. But he succeeded despite the odds.I
Hard work does not explain the massive income inequality in America.
I respect the risk he took when he started off with $60k in initial inventory. I imagine he got a loan to purchase his initial lot of cars plus the building?
This is the land of opportunity! There are tons of ways to make money, just takes the work to get there!
Haribol. ..Haribol...I proud of you sir.
Ok that was nice.
inspiring
INSPIRING!!!!!
I salute you.
God Bess America! The American Dream is still alive and Gil just proved it!
