lol that's life isn't it. I was watching antique roadshow once and this woman bought this old looking table for $15 and the antique expert on furniture told her it was a rare piece and she auctioned it for a half a million. I pray that that'll happen to me one day 
How awesome to find a piece of history just by chance. Now I wonder what I would do with all that money 
Oh, I saw that episode! It was Federal style card table. The Keno brothers had estimated she would get $150,000 to $250,000 for that table and it went all the way up to $450,000. Even with the auction house taking a third of that, she gets a profit of $299,985. What is that? Like a 1,000,000% return?lol that's life isn't it.
