63. Jay Leno: Planning for Classic Car Collections

63. Jay Leno: Planning for Classic Car Collections

Jay Leno spent 22 years hosting the “The Tonight Show” before being inducted into the Television Hall of Fame. His prized collection consists of approximately 286 vehicles: 169 cars and 117 motorcycles, all of which create a bit of a challenge when it comes to asset planning.

In this episode, David Lenok is joined by Peter Neumann, CEO and Steve Linden, CIO of Chrome Strategies, to discuss the planning that accompanies such a large collection of increasingly valuable assets. They reveal what to consider when planning with a large collection of assets, and detail the difference for planning and storing pieces, depending on the type of collection.

Peter and Steve discusses:

  • What is considered a collectable;
  • The benefit of determining the value of a collection before asset planning;
  • The difficulties faced when storing collections; and
  • The importance of maintaining the integrity of a collection.
