UPDATE Franklin got Gold out of a coin counter.

Postby henrysmedford » Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:57 am

In shock. Franklin asked a teller have you saved any junk for me and when we got out to the car there it was 1/10 oz. More later.

Update I went by and told the teller what she gave Franklin and she said she would do it all over knowing it made his day. She said keep her name and bank off any post as people can get odd over money. She also said she has a step brother with autism who is like Franklin.

Outstanding!!! Congrats to Franklin.
If you are waiting for the "correction" to buy you need to realize that the increasing prices ARE the correction.

BULLY for you Franklin!
If I have the gift of prophesy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to move mountains but do not have love I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned but do not have love it profits me nothing.
