This Tesla owner in Texas managed to repay his Tesla Model 3 in record time, and he did so with a combination of strategies.
His initial idea actually failed, with a two-part plan in mind that quickly evaporated.
But his Plan B worked amazingly.
And there’s something else about this guy we should mention.
We have to commend this guy’s strategy when it comes to his Tesla
This YouTuber, he goes by Keep Going on the platform, managed to pay off a $19,000 car loan on a Tesla Model 3 in under a year, which is impressive.
His initial strategy was to use the vehicle to perform Uber and Uber Eats deliveries while simultaneously creating content about the experience.
But making that much money on YouTube is not easy, and he also realized that the market in his area was much slower than anticipated.
So he did something else.

In addition to splitting rent and groceries, he also took advantage of free workplace charging and a $50 statement credit, which he consistently applied toward the loan.
He also worked overtime and picked up a part-time job, along with getting a significant bonus from a job relocation from California to Texas.
Where have we seen this guy before?

If his face looks familiar, that’s because this is the guy who’s been buying Bitcoin every day for over a year.
After around 500 days of consistently buying Bitcoin, he said he had built his crypto holdings up to around 0.02 BTC, worth around $1,500 at the time of writing.
He generally buys $5 a day, but he also also occasionally deposited larger lump sums.
Bitcoin made up around 58 percent of his overall crypto portfolio during the update.
Bitcoin’s value is famously very volatile, so whether he’s in the green or in the red remains to be seen.
Then again, for most people, this is a Bitcoin strategy and all that matters is the result when, 10 or 20 years from now, you’ll zoom out.
And cash out.
