Default So you want to be a millionare?

Guys,

I made a phone call to a friend that I go way back. We met about 15 years ago because we shared executive suites side by side. He sold cars all his life. I got to pick up a few for him and enjoy some nice autos. Because of that, I've ordered many autos from him and have refered him a lot of biz. BTW, before you buy your next care, PM me and see if you don't get a better deal and/or a better ecperience. Anyway, I put my order in for my next used car as we shot the bull.

He told me his friend from Intel was working on a chip for your computer to receive TV over the air. I know, no big deal. Here is the big deal. Four of them discovered an airwave band sold back in the 40's to the churches across the USA. They spent a year or two and about 100k or so going around and buying up this band that hasn't been used for decades. It turns out they just sold it to AT&T for 1.2 billion. Four normal everyday people like you and I just split it. My friend said he got the call from one of the guys leaving the Ferrari Dealership.

Granted this story I heard and you heard is 2nd person and third person removed, but I assure you, I have no reason to doubt it because of the person I heard it from. You can decide if I'm full of BS. However, I believe have a track record of backing my stuff up. I'm curious enough to investigate it but giddy enough to post it. So you decide.

Pretty strange that something like that hasn't made the news,that's the type of story agencies love to report on.

I will be watching for the report. I'm guessing it's not that big of a story since it was a private sale.

I believe it.

Stuff like this happens a lot. Just have to keep being opportunistic.

Wow, I love it when stuff like that happens!

I wonder how much of that Obama will take to re-distribute? Sounds like it's time to take a little trip to the Caymans.
