I was listening to our local radio station yesterday morning when Preston & Steve at WMMR were reporting on their "Bizzaro Files". This portion of their show always intrigues me and so I tuned my ears in to listen.
A few stories went by and they were ok - then this particular story caught my attention. You'll see why in a second.
Apparently, a woman had been doing some cleaning out of sorts when she came across a pair of her 
husbands old boots. Well he hadn't worn them in quite sometime so she proceeded to throw them to the curb. Some time passes (not sure exactly how much) but the couple, who had been saving for a house decided it was time to make their move!
The husband went in search of his boots to retrieve the stash of money they had been saving for the down payment to discover the boots missing. After revealing to his wife that their life savings of $60,000 was stuffed in one of the boots they began a frantic search to find the boots she had left at the curb!
You see, this gentelman didn't feel his money was safe in a bank. Of, course it would be much safer stuffed in the toe of his shoe.
UMMM, I DON'T THINK SO!!!
Surprisingly, after word of this story got out. The money was found, ironically by a couple who had already planned to use the money as a deposit for buying their own new home! Their deal was canceled and the money returned to the rightful owners!
Lesson for the day: Don't leave you rmoney in an old boot!
When you are ready to make your dream a reality, pull your life savings out of your boot the bank and give me a call!
