Default Re: Worst buying or selling decision!!

To coin a paraphrase from a movie I like, "it was both the worst day and the best day of my life"

When I bought this car, I knew I would never sell it. But then one day I got Soooo mad at it for something (I don't remember what) that went wrong that I drove it out to the curb on the lawn and put a For Sale sign on it. I was prepared to sell it to someone for $700. obo. I was that mad at it.
It was out there for about 5min when someone pulled over and looked it. I was standing in the open garage doorway and he yelled something like, "You want to sell this car?" I think I said something like, "yeah, well, I don't know" as I walked down the driveway. Before I got there I knew I didn't what to let it go, so I said something like, "No, I'm sorry, it's not for sale. I changed my mind"
I still have the car. That was the best and worst day.
