Making money on money

Happy Thursday!

“A bank that happened to sell cars”

That’s what they used to call GMAC*, now known as GM Finance.

GMAC was always incredibly profitable: making money on money is so much easier than making money on actual cars 😉

Even today, in the middle of the COVID-19 crash

GM Financial sails on, profits a little down but still above ten percent, compared to ZERO for the auto business.

I think the execs at GM are grateful for their lending arm!

So… Why not do the same ourselves?

 

GM Operating Margin Comparison

“In short, GM Financial is 3X-5X more profitable than GM automotive.”

Why not indeed! 

These days, our capital is growing fast. So for the first time, we can actually invest in the equipment that we include in those cool Water as a Careerâ„¢ packages!

But… do we still plan to have outside investors for water equipment financing**?

That’s a question I will answer tonight, at 5pm Pacific, 8pm Eastern. Just click here to register!

Water as a Career business update

COO Tom Marchesello has been driving the new WaaC program and will report on progress tonight.

He will also tell us what Chief Engineer Dan Early and the team at Progressive Water Treatmentâ„¢ and Modular Water Systemsâ„¢ have been up to… How’s August going?

So join me at 5pm Pacific, 8pm Eastern TODAY THURSDAY. Just click here to register!

 

Yours in water,

Riggs Eckelberry
President & CEO
OriginClear, Inc. (OCLN)


Make sure you’re signed up for my Live CEO Briefing TODAY! 5pm Pacific, 8pm Eastern… Sign up now!
