This will be my last post for awhile.

It's time to move on.

    Why?

    Where are you moving on too?
    I manage money. I earn money. I save money .
    I give away money. I collect money.
    I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.

    I'm sorry to see this 291.............there's not many people on here who will 'tell it like it is' and not always be in 'Happy talk' mode.

    "Awhile" is such a relative term. In your case, I hope it means a week or two at best as I really enjoy your comments and posts!

    Awwww...

    I guess your collecting has been on a back burner for a long time anyway. I've sure
    enjoyed your posts and will miss not seeing you around.

    I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say you're always welcome back.

    Maybe in a few months we'll finally get a good token and medal site smoewhere. There
    will be one forum just for coin publisher memorabilia if I have anything to say about it. image

    Best of luck.

    good luck 291fifth with whatever you do!

    Always enjoy 291's posts. I recall he took a break a couple of years ago, but it was very short, less than a month I believe. Fear not!
    Do your best to avoid circular arguments, as it will help you reason better, because better reasoning is often a result of avoiding circular arguments.

    I too appreciated 291fifth's perspective but I understand the need to take time off.

    Hope to see you back soon.
