Fabs.. I don't "need the money". I'm just at the point where I think the guns are somewhat like a liability. i keep them insured...which isn't cheap..they are bringing a bit of a premium now and with the coming financial problems in this country... Also considering selling the farm here and the one in Md...Put the money in something safer...maybe overseas.. Have found a nice place of about 30 acres or maybe buy a small place here and one in Montana..buy a camper and do some traveling...If the scum suckin pigs runnin this country do away with the Bush tax cuts....I'll be stuck with the properties as far as investments the tax will be extremely high when I sell...both places could be sold within 10 days if I chose to do so. i am also considering other options but personally feel the gummit has wwwaaaayyy too much control over our lives and our money. The farm in Md is worth quite a bit. Property was what I considered our investment for the future..with the change that Nobama has and is trying to give us I am losing options that I had before. The guns are just part of my concerns..If we travel like we are considering..where do I store them? Also the bank I have the expensive ones in..is charging a bit for the vault storage....but I do have more than guns in there..some jewelry I bought years ago and a couple of original pieces of artwork that are worth a bit.. I'm at the point now where I don't feel there is any SAFE investment..safe from the gummit is what I mean..cept maybe gold. The guns that have nostalgic value are of course..not worth much cash wise..and I would keep them. The older we become..it seems the less nostalgic we become...my wife has even sold some of the old family treasures but she keeps the little valuables she and I have acquired over the years at auctions and such
