When you think about it, that's kind of sad in many ways.

I keep the first 100 ounce bar I ever purchased in a crystal dish on my glass and brass coffee table. The only PM openly displayed in my home.
I get pleasure from it several times a week. I go back and remember how I got to where I am today and there is so much there.
Yet each memory can be triggered from looking at that very first bar. I'll never sell it no matter the price.
To me, it's priceless. It gives me far more enjoyment and pleasure than any stack of money would, no matter how big the stack.
It's very being makes it unique, it's a one of a kind for me and it's irreplacable. It's a part of my history, an important part.
Sentiment is not dead, nor will it ever be.

Yes it is, and the weirdness is contagious
I knew it would happen.
