The story of how I turned $5 into $90 with no work
    #3693601 -

So I was at this friends house ' in tha hood'... We were passing around mad blunts getting blasted.. So these sketchy black dudes come in, and they say to me and my friend " Hey, come to the back room, we got something to show you"

So we go back there.. Turns out he was trying to sell us some coins.. He claimed he needed 'gas money' :lol:

Anyways, he had two golden coins, they looked gold, seemed heavy enough to be gold.. So he told us $5 a piece..

I figured fake gold or not, $5 was a worthy risk to take that this could possibly be gold..

Ok- so that was 5 months ago, I let it sit in a box for all that time... Today I took it to a pawn shop and turns out it was worth around $110... He gave me $90 for it.. I was so happy..

This is dirty money though- I dunno how that is gonna affect my karma.. Any thoughts? I never stole anything, just took an opportunity presented to me.

Shine on :gd_icon: :sun:

That is what I was wondering.. Was it good karma that I turned bad?

If I spend this money on myself will it kick me in the ass? Should I donate money to some charity? Arg- conscious sucks :smile:

well, I probably would have kept the coins, but i digress..

it's karma hittin you back for something. wallet you lost, that quarter ounce of bud that disappeared from your apartment. it's not like you killed some old lady for them and spent the money on a few 2 liters of mountain dew and pissed on her grave.

I know- i hope that is it.. I really am a good person in that I send a lot of good karma out there....

And so many times I have been screwed over, maybe this is the univeral payback system?

I will find out sooner or later.. Just one week ago I asked for some money to come to me with good intentions- but is selling this good intentions? I dunno...

How is that bad Karma....its not like the black dude said he just wacked some guy out for the coin. He was just trying to get some easy money. Stolen or not, Karma doesn not factor in if you bought the coin with good intentions

Karma, shmarma...

You went in on a capitalist endeavour (would you have bought the coins if you thought they wouldn't have some kind of turn-around?) and you ended up making money. If you were afraid of "karma" in the first place, you wouldn't have bought the coin. Did you think it was from his personal coin collection?

You wanted to make money, and did. I don't see what the fuss is about.

I really hope the guy did not whack anybody for these gold coins..

I also wished I asked how he got them( or rather, where he could have stolen them from)

No, karma has nothing to do with god or religion. karma is the sum output the world sends back to you in relation to what you put in.. Only you can change your karma- you are born without the weight of past lives karma

The pawn shop guy said it was part of a 5 coin set and each coin had 1/4 ounce of gold in it... he also said if I had all 5 coins the value would increase greatly... without the set it was just melt value gold..
It was not a US mint coin- it was some off mint collector gold bullion set... If it was a gold eagle or gold US dollar I would have kept it.
