    Get it graded. Grading runs from 1 (completely worn and thrashed) to a 70 which is basically it was minted with fresh tooling, beyond reproach and it's never been handled without care and gloves.

    A really low grade is basically worth melt value ($400-$500) where as something in high 60s to 70 can worth up to 5 figures.

    A buddy of mine sold off a lot of his "junk" a few years ago, that turned out to be worth a few pennies. His free advise was.....
    Always deal in USD. Never deal in Canadian money!

    it's a good inflation hedge, and inflation hasn't peaked yet.

    tales in trouble shooting.

    I did a load of laundry in my 20+ year old Kenmore top loader last night. Pausing my chill NetFlix to move to the load to the dryer I noticed a largish puddle on the rough basement floor. I assumed some internal hose, pump, housing failure, turned it off and went to bed dreaming of yet another bite out of the contingency fund. Furnace got fixed last week free (to me) via my maintenance contract. That episode was a couple chapters of ineptitude between Reliance tech, ordering and dispatch, but that's old news.

    So a few YT videos and I've got the washing machine apart and no obvious leaks inside, no sign of water, lots of dust and cobwebs.

    I ponder over a coffee and go take another look (fresher eyes).

    The damn washtub drain is leaking. See what assumptions get you.

    My FB memory today was from when my oldest son gave my youngest son some timeless advice.

    They were playing minecraft. And the older one says to the younger one.

    No, STOP! NEVER waste your diamonds on a hoe!

    Jesus Christ. We just got the notice for renewal on one of our mortgages.

    It’s a smaller one used to build the shop. We only took a short term pre covid to get it rolling and the the plan was to just extend until the other mortgage was up for renewal as well and roll them in together.

    My monthly payment is now double.

    There is seriously a lot of people gonna be hurting in the near future. When this shit hits

    Saving grace is half the shop space it storage for work and the rent still covered it. But so much for the extra we were rolling into investments.
