<p>[QUOTE="troyster68, post: 59279, member: 2215"]Well folks, I wanted to let you all know that If it weren't for coins I would be in a bad place. I lost my job for the first time in my life, about 2 1/2 months ago. I had no savings to fall back on and I an a single income family of 4. Well as much as I hate to say it, I have sold close to $4,000 of my coin collection which has made up alot of the gap and fed my family in this time of need. I am very fortunate to have put all these lovely coins back when I had the money or my kids would have gone hungry. Some of them I did well on others I lost and some broke even all in all I am doing OK on the whole deal. I hope to be working soon and back in the buying mode as I never intended on selling anything I collected. I, at this point, have all the older type coins and sold all my modern complete sets I constructed. Thank God for Coins!!! they have proven to be worth there weight in silver. I never thoght I would be in this position but I am very glad I chose such a cool hobby. Keep collecting!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
