Way back in the 70s I had a repair garage, this old guy used to come in on a regular basis. He liked to just talk a lot, when he needed work on his old car a rough looking 49 Dodge, I would take care of it. Seems he had been coming to that same garage since that car was new, I had purchased this business out of the estate of the former owner. I really didnt know that much about that old guy except that I had heard rumors that he was quite wealthy. Now you know I never belived any of it, mainly just cause I had also taken him to his home many times when he had to leave his car, which was more or less a dilapidated old house on the seedy side of town. Now he always paid what he owed with cash and never a complained about the cost. Now I always dismissed all that talk of his riches because of what seemed to be. The old boy passed away one day. Well to my surprise all of the rumors were true. There was a story in the local paper recounting his life story. Seems that the old boy as it turned out owned a good section of the downtown real estate of Seattle. Turns out that he had a shoe factory there producing boots and shoes in the 30s. But when WWII came along his factory had one of the largest contracts to produce shoes and boots for the US fighting forces , that factory produced shoes and boots up till the late 50s solely for the US gov't. But what he was doing with his profits, was buying downtown Seattle real estate then. Now all you people from Wa know what downtown Seattle real estate is worth even when he died in the early 70s. So as once said just never judge a book by its cover. Or what I have learned never judge a person wealth by either where they may live or by the vehicle they drive;)) It may just shock you!
