I am coming up on a milestone One I think I saw @cpm9ball make it to when I first got here. Thank you too all those that participate here on CT. Here is the last Silver, and Nickel I picked up, came out if the last set I bought.
At the rate I’m going I won’t live long enough to hit that number. At the pace I’m going (4,300 in 13 years) it would take me another 46 years. Congrats!!
We have PM'd, tagged, and even started a couple of threads. Haven't heard anything back yet. A lot of us are hoping he is ok.
He's ok, someone in the area finnally got ahold of him. Seems he is having to choose between internet, and eating. He lives on a fixed income and can't afford both. If I remember correctly.
Grocery bills have gotten way out of hand, I get paid a per diem because I travel for work and used to could frugally shop and save the leftovers for play money. Lately I have had to pay out of pocket for some meals because inflation has the cost higher than the per diem. The company has promised a rate increase, but I wonder how long it will be before it is surpassed.
I understand, my budget hasn't worked in over a year. If I didn't have 20 gigs of hot spot on my phone. I wouldn't be hanging out on CT. The money I used to have available for internet, is long gone.
I have a funny feeling no milestone for me when it comes to coins. Age 60 coming up in a year is a milestone for me. That’s kind of the definition lol.
Congratulations to you and on this milestone, I would like to thank you along with many helping the newbies on CT. It’s a beautiful coin!
Well I have decided to start from scratch. There is no doubt, other than finding silver and the foreign coins I am for sure I have probably missed something. Learning from many it takes time. Do I purchase anything? Not at this time, but I have a funny feeling I will join that process along with the pros here.
Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but just now came across this. It's not much, but maybe it could help him if he's on a limited fixed income: https://www.fcc.gov/acp
