Along with that, he had invested, and later on, put a down payment on a condo. Gheesling did not buy any cars as he has always found it interesting to drive the same car for years to find out the number of miles he can put on it.
- Gheesling has regarded money to be a game, and that one either gets played by it or finds a way to play it. He has affirmed that, as opposed to what may be the natural assumption, he has not lived a life of fame and fortune but instead he has liked to work and keep running his business every day.
