"Virginia tobacco, the stuff of commerce, is one of the hardiest plants you'll ever grow. If you live in a place that's warm enough to grow cabbage, tobacco will thrive. If it's warmer, that's even better."

I quit 6 years ago, but I am cheap and had thought about this years ago.

I'm a professional yard sales addict. Save a ton on things I need and make a few bucks reselling. This year my best was a man's watch I bought for one dollar and GF sold it on eBay for $400. I gave it to her to help her afford Christmas for her grand kids.
I love finding things for friends. 2 weeks ago a friend said he loves cross country skiing and like to teach kids how to. Said he was looking for some cheap ones. I found 2 pair last Saturday with poles for $4. Turned out to be really nice ones made in Austria.
Being retired for almost 20 years, it keeps me busy.
