My eyes! My eyes! This a family forum people, lets keep it that way. ...and if you want an absolutely killer example there's one on Vcoins for $79.
You know VK, I remember when you were posting a few years ago (2 or 3 years), so you were not much older than vlaha at that time. I've always earned my own money, or at least since I was about 8 or 9 years old. My sister and I used to deliver Fuller Brush catalogs for a half cent each. We also mowed lawns, shoveled snow, walked dogs and just about anything else to earn a few penny's. It's good to know there are kids today being taught some sense of responsibility. Good on ya V, and, I would guess, good on your parents as well.
Oh, and BTW, I am old enough to be you young whippersnapper's grandpaw. I know there are many here near to my age and a couple near abouts old enough to my parent. Quite an age range.
Thanks Bing, it's always good to hear from people who have similar dedication. Yes I kind of got that when you said you had been paid a half cent to deliver those catalogs.
Thanks Bing. Growing up I wasn't poor but I wasn't drowning in cash either. I saved up any money I could get in my teen years. During this time I got into US coins and was mainly getting my coins from circulation. By the time I got hooked on ancient coins (when I was 19) I already had money saved up and was earning my own money, so this helped in my current pursuit of these awesome coins. I'm in college now, majoring in Psychology, so I ain't slackin'
