I had to start over on my quest to finance a trip to Japan for my family with just 50¢. The money I made last year paid for a family trip to Vegas this last New Year.

I am going to completely video blog it.

This 50¢ tee shirt purchase will be my starting point.


The t-shirt finally sold for a whooping $2 on a live auction I did tonight.


After fees, I now have $1.80 to buy something this weekend.

I bought this for the $1.80. Not sure of the year or how old it is

When I first saw the t-shirt, my heart dropped, thinking it was a Paradise Records shirt, going back to the 80’s-90’s.

In

And highly recommend employing a guide in Japan.

It’s like they have a different word for almost EVERYTHING there.

How do we know you won't just up and spend your profit on a trip to Palm Springs similar to last time?

I don't think there are hostels for him and his daughter to stay at in Palm Springs.

Because I wanted to video it last time but never did, plus, with both my daughters in school, we won’t be able to go until probably 2027 anyway. Now I have about 24 months to do it.

I think I preferred when you just posted a photo, That twelve seconds wasn't as good as one photo of the tshirt.

Good luck, anyway

You might want to practice aiming the camera at whatever you’re holding before you really get into this.

Give us narration brother, I have no clue about the t shirt. What makes it significant? What are you looking for when you look at the shirt? What made you decide to buy it? What do you think you might get for it?

Get one of your kids to help you. You are like watching American Pickers on mute.
