Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

He's a younger soldier too im 34 he's like 25 and the silver coins where all loose in a tin with other coins. He wasn't a serious collector or he wouldn't have sold them that cheap and would have kept them in 2x2s lol. He knows I'll take care of them so he didn't mind giving me a serious discount

Daniels great pick up none the less and at least they have a good home and he got some money for some stuff he didnt really want anyway. Just found it humorous to hear someone say they were selling because they were getting to old to collect.

Wonder what he would say if he went to a coin show. Most there could be his grandfather.

Daniels,
I'm semi retired in civilian life. I've got 32 years in the Army,Reserve and now Guard. 4 years ago I re-classed and spent most of a year at FT Gordon. Now my house is paid for, I have no bills; no loans; nada.
So I decided that I would take half my Army pay and buy coins, comics, and guns....lol. When I got my first check I was sure there was some kinda mistake. I got on Mypay so fast it made my head spin! Turns out BAH for the SF Bay area in Ca was around 2k a month...and that is what I used to buy coins with for a year! I was actually disappointed when my unit got cut from the deployment list last year.
You know when you are a kid deploying is exciting. When you have a family deploying is scary as heck. When your kids are grown up and you are single again deploying goes back to being an adventure....a hot...sometimes miserable..often times boring; but still an adventure!
