Hey guys, it's sasha, i just ordered the tesla cyber truck. It cost me 100 pounds to go and place the initial deposit, but with hundreds of thousands of other people making the orders before i did. I expect it will take some time before the cyber truck actually arrives, as tesla haven't even finished building the factory at which the cyber truck is going to be made. I obviously haven't ever seen one in real life, but i did some math and the numbers were so compelling that i felt i had to place the order right away.

I went and looked at the tesla website i selected the most expensive tri-motor all-wheel drive option to get my 500 miles of range. I added the full self-driving option so that i could fix the price before any future increases and i hit buy it now. So literally about a minute i haven't had a few button clicks after i went on the website. I placed my order and i got the confirmation email, but how much did it cost me and how exactly am i planning to buy it for just 58 pounds a month which is roughly the price of a meal out for two well first, let's talk about the Price you'll notice that if you go on the uk website, the price is actually missing.

But if you look at the us website, you'll notice that the fully spec cyber truck currently costs 69 900. However, if you do go and compare the prices of other teslas, it appears that the price on the us website in us dollars without the savings and grants that they automatically build in is about five percent cheaper than the price of the identical car on the uk Website in british pounds because of the taxes, so i added the five percent and the six thousand eight hundred pounds for the full self driving option to get a total cyber truck price of eighty thousand one hundred and eighty seven pounds now. I know that the final version might cost something different, so there might be some extras that i absolutely must have when it comes to placing the actual final order when the production is actually happening, but just bear with me for now. First off, when you order the cyber truck in the uk, you can either do it personally or through the company and naturally enough, when i placed my order, i did it through my company because in the uk you're allowed to write down the entire cost of the Car in the first year of ownership against tax - and this is where the mass really starts.

Unfortunately, you can't take the v80 off in the same way, if you plan to use the car for personal use, but writing off the total amount against tax saves me. 16. 037 pounds on corporation tax and 24 441 pounds on dividend tax. If i was to pay myself money via dividends using the additional rates tax band.

Now i expect the car to take at least a year to actually turn up and i'm hoping that i can continue growing my youtube channel in the meantime. So hopefully i should be sitting in that bracket at that point now, i'm going to assume that i own the car for five years for some of my assumptions and i think that's kind of reasonable, but as it stands, electric vehicles in the uk do not pay Car tax, while the car that i currently do own cost me about 490 pounds a year at the moment, so not having to pay car tax for five years in a row saves me a further 2 450 pounds. But then you get stung with a benefit in kind tax, because my company will be providing the cyber truck to me for my personal use. I have to go and pay tax on that, and my company also has to pay class one national insurance so taking the full price of the car at 80 107 pounds and the higher benefit and kind rate of two percent.

That's going to apply from april 22 onwards, i will have to pay 943 pounds per year in total, which will add up to 4 715 pounds over the five years. Now i did some research and things like maintenance, insurance and depreciation actually probably going to be about the same as my current car. So i haven't taken those into account because there isn't a lot of difference, but one thing i will save a lot of money on is driving, so i will be driving around 12 000 miles per year and the tri-motor cyber truck says that it's gon na have A 200 kilowatt hour battery that delivers 500 miles on a single charge because of the massive range of 500 miles i'll, be able to charge the truck at home for pretty much 100 of its use and using something effective like the octopus, energy, agile tariff i'll. Be able to pay a rate of just 4p per kilowatt hour if i charge my car overnight when electricity is super cheap, so it will cost me about 8 pounds to drive the cyber truck 500 miles, which is unbelievably cheap.

Now, if i compare it to my current car, which, for example, would do 25 miles to the gallon at one pound 40 per liter, yes, prices where i live on. Petrol are exceptionally expensive. That would cost me 127 pounds for the same 500 miles or 305 pounds per year in petrol. So the difference between the two over the course of a year is going to be about 2 900 pounds or 14 315 pounds over the five-year period.

So after subtracting the tax write-off, the savings on petrol on the car tax, but then adding back the extra benefit in kind tax. I am left with 27 659 pounds, but the maths does not end there. I have enough in my investments to be able to go and buy the car outright with just plonking the cash out and buying it, but i don't plan on doing that. In fact, i plan on using a combination of zero percent credit cards and a small loan to myself for my business to cover that remaining amount.

Then i'm going to take that 27 659 pounds and invest it in the stock market. I'll essentially be borrowing from myself. In a way, at a zero percent rate, in order to be able to go and take that money put it in the in the market and make a profit instead of just spending it up front in the car, so over the same five years earning an average Of eight percent from sitting the s p 500, i expect to earn a gain of 12 980 pounds and 94 p using cumulative appreciation, and then this is the best bit. I'm planning to use a cyber truck as an interesting topic for some of my youtube videos.

So let's say i make one video every three months about the cyber truck things like first impressions reviews, the cost of ownership and whatever else comes to mind over the five years, there's going to be 20 videos assuming a relatively modest 20 000 views per video over Their lifetime, which i think might actually be higher if these videos do well and using my current advertising, rpm of about eight pounds per thousand views and a lower than what i'm currently getting affiliate revenue of 20 pounds per thousand views. I should make about 11 200 pounds in total from those videos, so subtracting the savings on the driving and adding the earnings from youtube. I am left with a total cost of just 3 477 pounds, 63 pence for my cyber truck spread over the five years that i've been doing all these calculations over that's just 57 pounds and 96 p per month, which is incredible. If you ask me, my sky tv subscription costs more than that, so this is one of my 20 videos about the cyber truck done.

Please make sure you go and hit the like button so that this video can reach more people so that i can earn a little bit more money so that my monthly cost for the purchase of the cyber truck can be even lower than that. Thank you. So much for watching, i hope you enjoyed it and, as always i'll see you guys later.
