Real estate mogul Grant Cardone suggests that Americans should lease all cars except for one specific vehicle, the $150,000 Range Rover, weighing over 6,000 pounds. Cardone highlights the tax benefit of being able to write off 100% of the purchase price due to IRS Section 179, aimed at business vehicles exceeding 6,000 pounds. By leasing other high-end vehicles like the Rolls Royce Cullinan, Cardone leverages monthly lease payments as business expenses to maximize tax deductions. Consultation with a tax professional is recommended to ensure compliance with IRS regulations when considering such strategies.

Yahoo Kimo News (Reporter Lin Zhengping) Updated on June 20, 2024, at 4:47 am. Mr. Deer won the Best Band Award ten years ago as a dark horse, and this year is nominated again for the 2024 Golden Melody Awards. During a press conference on the 19th, he, along with No Party for Cao Dong, attended to hype up the countdown to the Golden Melody Awards. They are nominated for Best Band with their song 'All Caused by Romance,' which they won with as a dark horse a decade ago. They aim to 'maintain the mentality of wanting to win' and compete for the award alongside other bands like No Party for Cao Dong and Fire EX. When asked about the red carpet of the Golden Melody Awards, he mentioned they tend to eat only one meal a day due to their late schedules, and they are currently monitoring their diet as they are prone to water retention. He also expressed surprise at getting to know Chthonic Choir, who are also nominated, highlighting the journey of being recognized through winning an award. If they do win, their biggest gratitude would be towards the five members who stood on stage with them ten years ago since they are still together as a group. Additionally, besides the Golden Melody Awards nomination, they announced a concert at Taipei Arena on September 21. When asked about dream guest performers, he humorously dodged the question by saying that every senior in the industry is a dream guest to him. Yahoo Kimo Entertainment Reporter Lin Zhengping.
