  • Error601, on 12/24/2007, -0/+1Just think what all the cash would have done invested. He could have bought that cars and had another 36K to blow.
  • gbarberi, on 12/24/2007, -0/+1This reminds me of a story of an elderly couple that had saved up a crapload of pennies in jars in their basement. They used it for a vacation, I think. I can't seem to find the article through Google though.
