| Rumors of my death are greatly exaggerated  |
 My wife's mom passed a year ago or so. She inherited some oil stocks. Well, today she got the first big windfall. What I was dreaming of..  What I can afford..  Sarcasm...... Actually though, I did just buy that 65. Gonna do a little work on it and flip it. Not exactly my dream Vette, but sure fun to play with. "Someday I hope to be half the man my bird-dog thinks I am." looking forward to 4 years of TRUMP! | ||

Take a deep breath. You'll need a financial advisor and a tax expert. Don't go crazy, pace yourself. You've got a lot of...oh, wait, nevermind. No one's life, liberty or property is safe while the legislature is in session.- Mark Twain | |||

Make sure you cash your windfall before the check is void.  "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women. When it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it....While it lies there, it needs no constitution, no law, no court to save it" - Judge Learned Hand, May 1944 | |||

Nice. My mother is 86. Her aunt passed a few years ago and it was discovered that she had set up trusts for her nieces and nephews. After the dust settled my mother ended up with quite a bit of money. I told her that at least she could be trusted to spend it responsibly now. Calgary Shooting Centre | |||

Which 'Vette is your dream? The mid-years have a great look to them, IMO. The 4th gen was plain ugly, 5th gen a little less ugly but much more performance. I had a 2003 Z06 with some light mods. I will have a Z06 again one day. _____________ | |||

If it was me I would take that wind fall check and frame it and put it on the wall to show how it cost more to process and mail said check was worth ........................................drill sgt. | |||

67 with a 427 would be sweet. I kinda like 07-13 with a 427.... "Someday I hope to be half the man my bird-dog thinks I am." looking forward to 4 years of TRUMP! | |||

This was the garage it used to live in. Sorry, no clue what all the electrical is for. And yes, he only drove it once in the last year. Sad. "Someday I hope to be half the man my bird-dog thinks I am." looking forward to 4 years of TRUMP! | |||

Sadly, M&M's are more expensive than a penny a piece - at least in the smaller bags. ($1.50 bags have way less than 150 M&M's). Maybe if you shop at Costco | |||
