      If you invest it right or use it as capital for a buisness venture, it can make you much more then a millionaire, 850,000 Is more then enough to make you a future billonaire, it just takes Vision, research & patience, & a little effort, but 850k is a great launching pad to much much more, if you don't get impulsive & waste it. But even if you didn't invest it, 850k could last you a life time, if you are frugal & practical with it. Just don't let the money go to your head & be a fool, instead, use your head to manage the money & make it work for you, or you will be right back to square 1.... & again you will be "working for your money" - have a blessed & prosperous lifer to all who read this :-)

    My wife bought a bracelet from a garage sale for $25, she gave it to our daughter for a birthday present, our daughter had it appraised and it turns out that the bracelet was worth $12,000. It was a bracelet made in Germany in WWII that the German soldiers made for their mothers as something to remember them by due to the chance that they might not return from war and that there were only about a dozen or so of these bracelets in excistance so you never know what you will find at a flea market or garage sale

One of the rocks intrigue him so he started shaping it. He suddenly stopped because he realized he was way out of his league with the value of the rock. It turns out to be a very large very perfect emerald that he sold to a private party for 2.6 million. Why can’t I have that kind of luck?

      Before my Grandmother passed away, she asked me what I would like of hers after she was gone and I replied, NaNa, May I Please have Your MaMa’s Beautiful costume jewelry necklace and she had such a funny look on her face when I asked her for that one piece & she said, Mija, why that one & I said, Because it’s was Your MaMa’s & my Great grandmother’s and it’s Lovely. Well she came to tell me also when I asked for that Specific necklace she said it was already 80 Years old when I first wore it back on December 18th, 2002 & now 20 years later, it’s 100 years old. I’ve had Many of people come up to me and ask me where I got my necklace, because they had never seen it’s style and Beauty before & I tell them that it was my Great Grandmother’s Poor girls diamonds 😁🥰😁🥰😁🥰😁🥰😁 I Miss You NaNa 😞😞😞😞

    I also got a silver ring at a garage sale last year for $20. I decided to have it appraised. The owner of the jewelry store offered me $7500.00 for my ring saying in was white gold with 2.2 carats diamond.

The jewelry appraiser was super interested in that ugly gold ring, come to find out it was solid 18kt gold and a 3kt diamond which he said was one of the clearest diamond he had ever seen, he bought it right then and there for $10,500.

      U just nvr kno. I got pissed at my fiance 1 time n thru my engagement ring out the window drivin down a busy road n fl. 6mon later i was at a pawn shop just browsing n there n the jewelry case was my ring, minus the center stone. My fiance asked me if I wanted it back n I said no. It's got bad history but whoever found it was probably thinking they got pretty lucky stumbling upon it walking down the street

    So incredibly valuable to her. The ring gave her life purpose she just couldn’t imagine life without it. The narrator would make a awesome lawyer

      Depends when she sold it. If it was say 20 years ago that money is way over a million now.

      I like the housekeeper idea, but doubt she would have sold it. More likely it was missed at a house clearance, after she died. Might be someone out there who still doesn't realise, joking "do you remember how Aunt Mary always said her ring was a real diamond, silly old thing!"
