in Metal Detecting
So I broke down and purchased (ordered) a detector today. It's supposed to arrive on Monday... My first question is...


.... How long until I'm rich beyond my wildest dreams with all the loot I'm sure to find?

    It takes time. Figure by next Monday you should be able to get yourself out of debt and another week or so before Forbes is calling to interview you.

    Good news: With a lot of practice I am able to dig almost 7 coins out of 10 holes.
    Bad news: There's a hell of a lot of 1972 nickels out there.
