wanna hear something funny? I remember driving with my oldest son in my rusted out 76 camaro with doors flapping and a back seat that slid forward if I hit the brakes too hard. At the time he was under a year old and the radio was advertising for investors in this new company/idea. For 10G large you could get in on the ground floor of this thing called Satellite TV that did not use Volkswagen sized dishes and was more reliable then cable TV. I remember everything about that moment and thinking that if I had the money I would jump and hump that oppurtunity like crazy. but 10 thou might as well have been 10 mill at the time. I was digging ditches for a company called Stackhouse Inc and making minimum wage. I still shake my head at the loss of that
