What up Coach Gang! Been awhile since I posted on locals so I just wanted to share an accomplishment I did this year that I am semi-proud of. My wife planned to run a half marathon earlier this year and I decided to join last minute. Only trained for 2 days (1 hour of jump rope) and went out there to attempt the 13 miles. It took 3 hours (running at my wife's pace because I said I would run it with her) but something that i believed I could never do that was on my bucket list was completed.

Proof of concept done. Money in my pocket.

Because of the increase in the silver price I have too much dead money sitting in my personal possession, and causing my floors to sag under the weight. So, with the help of my accountant at PWC Japan, I created a collateralized loan agreement with a Japanese bank, they arranged a truck to come and pick up the collateral, and credit my account with some Yenjamins at a VERY low rate of interest.
I don’t actually know what I’m going to do with the cash beyond parking it in a brokerage account earning ~4%.
I did have the option of leasing out the metal to be paid interest in silver, but A) I already have a silver ...
