Ok. If you aren't embarrassed to tell about a stupid investment...or something you did ridiculous with your money.
My husband and I invested about $5,000 in solar panels in the early 80's. They never did the trick. We thought we were so smart with that investment. We had been married a year. We were 31.

I am beginning to feel like buying a condo in Blue Creek was a poor choice!!!!
|
The foolish things I remember are the things I have not purchased.
1. 100 acres in Fayette Co.GA for $2000/ acre in 1991 (Now selling for 10X that price.)
2. A 3/4 acre lot and small home on Lake Conway in Orlando for 200K in 1989 (Now worth over 2 Mil)
3. 2 lots on Lake Wedowee in 1995 for 20K each. (Now 300K each; or more)
4. A two bedroom penthouse beach condo on Hutchinson Island Fla. in 2001 for 399K.
.....thank goodness I was foolish enough to buy on Lake Martin!

Scarab man, I can relate to that, but thanks for the memories in my case, when I delivered groceries.
