Hardly anyone invests period (at least in the us), getting them to invest in the stock market is hard enough.. crypto is seen as highly speculative- I'm bullish but don't have any loose change I can afford to lose. I quit winning-but poor hourly rate-internet poker, converted that into my Bitcoin funds.(about $750 in Jan 2018)

$500 off a Lego set, did you grab it from the worker the instant he put a sticker on it?

I have never seem to find them in my area.. though your amount of time was more free to visit the thrifts etc (prior to your mom's accident)
