Well at least until all of the checks clear I wrote!
Yeah, silver went so high I decided to divest myself of it! Good bye lifetime coin collection, I knew you well. Sniff.
Actually, I am feeling pretty good about it! Not that there is anything wrong with having a coin collection, it is just that it is a blessing to know that something that was just for fun, for the breadth of my life, actually could help me right now meet my bills! So I am happy, happy, happy!
Before Gaelic Girl left, we had to have yet another "discussion" over finances. Her perspective has really changed over the three years she has been in Texas. I wonder if it is the water or something in the air..... Anyways, she has become a whole lot less trusting of God to provide and a whole lot more focused on gathering what she can. Very much unlike her. So loggerheads!
Why did we cross swords? I wanted to take her out on a date and she felt I did not have enough to do so. Well, ya know, if I didn't have enough, I wouldn't have asked. Oh well, what could have been a relaxing evening came crashing down. Kris' general luck it seems.
Anyways, I am now playing with my non-silver coins and getting many of them ready to go to auction. I put up three yesterday: a third century Roman counterfeiting die found in Egypt, a banknote from the First French Republic and a little US three cent piece. No idea if they will go or not, but be fun to find out! If they sell, PTL! If not, CraigsList, then eBay I guess.
Now, what to do with a box full of German 1920's Notgeld...........?
