So fun little story
When I was a girl scout we went to a local gold mine turned national park.
The park ranger guy was telling us all about the different rocks and such. By the end of the trip we all got a rock collection that the park ranger made for all of us. He picked up the rocks himself and gave them to us in a little felt bag.
So my Dad had a hobby of rock collecting when he was a teenager and looked over my rock collection. He said wait who gave you these? I told him and he said ok can Daddy borrow your rock collection? I said yes. Week goes by and my Dad gave me my rock collection back missing 3 rocks and gave me 50 dollars.
He said some of my rocks were worth money so he sold them for me.
Years later I asked him about it he said that 1 was gold and 1 was silver and the third was diamond.
I said how much did you get for it? He said 280 total.
I said WAIT YOU ONLY GAVE ME 50!!
He said yeah sorry we had a bill we needed to pay lol thanks for saving the farm Betty Lou
-.- my Dad was an asshat lol
But I got 50 as a kid that is a ton of money. And he gave me money many times when I needed it so it’s fair.
Side note I was still friends with 2 of the other Girl Scouts from the troop and the den mom they said they had no idea some the rocks might be worth something. One found only 2 of her rocks worth money and the other said she tossed hers out years ago so she was kicking herself lol
