I Bought A Bottle Of . . . . .

Plus we now have the TG sword coming, there's a kind of what's around the corner feeling. If I spend all my knife cash now I might not be able to buy what's next.
🤷🍺🤷
 
A number of years ago I bought some Pappy Van Winkle in Bardstown, KY . . . the bourbon capital of the world!!!:cool:

About 3 years ago, one of the boys from the Crab Shack burst into my office to tell me that he had just heard on the radio that Pappy 23 was selling for $7,000 per bottle.:eek:

He asked if I knew where mine was. We checked my liquor stashes and found a bottle of Pappy 23 that I had bought for $265.

This was all very exciting. . . at first. . . until I noticed that I had opened the bottle to try it out.

Apparently, I wasn't in love with it, so I stuck it on a shelf and forgot about it.

Opening the bottle killed the collector value! :(😭

I did note that you can sell the empty bottles on eBay for around $400! So, once I drink the rest of the P23 I can still make a profit!

But wait! There's, a surprise ending!

A few days later, the Crab Shacker who had told me of my impending fortune rifled through all of my other liquor stashes and found an unopened bottle of both the Pappy 23 and the Pappy 12! I put those 2 in the safe where they still reside to this day. 😁

Let's NOT drink the Pappy!!!:eek:

Yeah, they want a lot for empty bottles. Mskes u wonder if they wanna fill them with fake juice and make money. I destroy every bottle I finish
 
When I first heard of bitcoin there was a thing called the “bitcoin faucet” where you could get free bitcoin,…it had just shut down. Dang, sure wish I had taken the time to get some.
 
I have had several really cool cars, a ton of cool guns and some other things that are worth a lot now. But!!!
I'm really happy with my life (yes, I should have planned for retirement but that's a different story).
I can say, I would not change anything I have ever done if it would risk where I am and who I'm with. My Wife is worth more to me than anything.
I'm talking better than A Hemi Cuda convertible towing a 427 Cobra SC to a house in Newport Beach cool.

In my short 30 years my only real regrets are about women
Missed 3 great ladies
A beautiful dark blonde, now married and with 3 kids in another country
A gorgeous light skinned rock beauty that now has a son and is a famous internet program host
A salvadorian petite high school sweetheart that is now internet famous

That and not getting a TGULB 🤣
 
Although I have had to pay a lot of medical bills, I regret selling most knives. Especially those gifted to me. I whole heartedly regret selling my DSSF more than any other knife though.
I worked on one of Paul Allens places for about a year and learned a lot about missed opportunities in buying stocks. That's another story.
 
Somebody just asked if I was willing to sell my BOSC-ID.

To be honest, I didn't even remember what a BOSC-ID was, much less the astronomical price they were selling for.

I wonder if I'd regret selling it. If I sold it.

Or how much I'd have to get to not regret it.


Also, I Bought A Bottle Of . . . . . El Tesoro®Mundial Collection: Laphroaig® Edition.
I coulda bought a whole case of Rebel Yell for the price of that one bottle.
I'm afraid if I open it, I'll regret it. So I won't.

water today . . . . Just plain, old, unflavored water.

As I opened the bottle I had a flashback to nearly 50 years ago.

Back then, I was approached by a guy who had tested our well water and he told me that he had NEVER seen water this clean in his many years of testing water for impurities!

He asked if I would be interested in helping him to bottle it for resale.

I was 17 years old at the time and pretty much knew everything.

I couldn't stop laughing at the idea of selling "Bottled Water".

I explained to him that the idea was moronic and that nobody would ever buy "bottled water"!

"What an idiot", I thought . . .

Hmmm . . . Who's the idiot now? . . . Hang on, let me get a mirror. . . . it holds the answer! :eek:

Hindsight is, most assuredly, 20/20

Have any of you ever missed an opportunity that you wish you could hit the rewind button on?

Ever sold a chunk of INFI that you regretted parting with? . . . Or waited too long to make a decision?

Lay it on me!

I need some company! 😂🤣

No Regrets!!!!

I had a PSG1 I paid $7,500.00 for and sold it a year and a half later for $12,500.00
Wish I had that one back lol!
I was also introduced to a girl by a friend and she wanted to go out with me, I never called her.
Turned out her Grand Parents owned Sun Oil Company and it turns out she was the soul Heir....

Best tequila I've ever had. Me and a few buddies polished off a bottle of it about 5 months ago.

One big ice cube and a few fingers of pour. Bottle runs about $300 here in TX. Put in the freezer and I’m ready to go for a special occasion with this stuff. 😎

No ice for me. I like it straight. Unfortunately, the bottle I had didnt last past that night. Lol. But worth every sip
