I might have your story beat. I bought my 89 Speedster in Jan. 1999. So that gives you an idea what I paid for it. A few years later after a bad day in the office, I came home and told my wife the Porsche and Harley are being sold. Time to hoard money and get out of the business I was in ASAP!!
I placed an ad in Panorama to sell the Porsche for slightly less than I paid. I didn't get a single call in over 3 months, I gave up, and told the wife I guess it wasn't meant to be, she agreed.
About 4-5 years ago while at a car show with the car, I was telling a couple guys how I couldn't get a single call when I tried selling my Speedster. My wife then said, "Oh, you got calls, but I told them all the car was sold". She saved me from myself years earlier. I still have the car and the wife, and unlike mutual funds, which I no longer invest in, the car is worth at least 3 times what I paid for it.
