I purchased my 360/12 CW fifteen years ago

Post by wmthor »

Fifteen years ago, I was having breakfast with my Mom and other family members at a Mississippi Gulf Coast casino. I had finished my meal, so my cousin and I excused ourselves and took a walk around the casino while the ladies continued to “visit.”

During our walk, I dropped five dollars into a video poker machine and within five minutes, I had over ten thousand dollars.

So what did I do with the windfall? In the following order, I purchased a 360/12 Carl Wilson (#147 of 500) from Jimmy at Southpaw Guitars, paid off my car note, and used the remaining towards a down payment on a new home. I really had my priorities on straight back then. :D :D :D
