For whatever reason, my thoughts today have been along the same line.

As for my paintings, if I ever become a David Hockney my kids will be millionaires several times over !! I have a couple of hundred I've done over the years and I've never tried to sell them. The best thing we ever did was buy a house when the kids were little and watch the value sky-rocket in our area. As an average paid pastor with no pension, we had no idea that house would become our retirement income. I guess the Lord knew!ChrisJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550420299395301062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37291817.post-35260693082788285792014-07-14T21:00:30.957+01:002014-07-14T21:00:30.957+01:00A good laugh came from here as well, Alan.

Even the earrings could sell for almost $40! <br />Maybe your bank notes would raise more if sold as works of art?Georginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13232154028235485600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37291817.post-86470161937374537222014-07-14T13:07:51.614+01:002014-07-14T13:07:51.614+01:00This made me laugh out loud.

The coins were mostly Mercury dimes, held in little books with cellophane tape, which left a residue sixty years later that finished off their value, not that they even rose to "good" after being sorted out from my dad's pocket change. The same with the stamps, held down by those silly stick-ums, that also ruined the backs and devalued the stamp.
