The easiest way to shatter a man's ago and even make him spend money he doesn't even have is to have a pretty girl say to him "What's the matter, can't you afford it?" This is a very powerful, wallet-thinning sentence that is taught to women at an early age. Remember in 5th grade when the teacher separated the boys and girls one day for a "special lesson"? Well.......this is what was taught to the girls at an early age in order for them to get what they want from men for the rest of their lives. Amy is a Master at this and highly skilled. She is capable of getting much more money out of a man than say........that other B-J strangely-excited fellow that works the crowd with the high-pitched women's voice.

That's the best explanation I've ever heard as to why these guys sometimes pay double what a car is worth. I was at the Mecum Auction in St. Charles a few weeks ago, and noticed a lot of guys talking about the dark haired 20-something girl that was working the stage, getting the sign-offs from the buyers.
When the Musclecar market gets even lower in the next year or two, Mecum or Barrett-Jackson will resort to girls in bikinis working the crowd while scantily clad bimbos are swinging around brass poles up on the stage.
