Guy goes from disability to millionaire because of a blanket

Pretty cool story. A guy gets in a car accident, loses his foot from an infection, and ends up on disability getting only $800/month.
Watches Antiques Road Show and sees an old Navajo blanket that's worth a few hundred thousand and realizes he has the same blanket. It goes up for auction and ends up selling for 1.5 million.
I bet he's glad he didn't make this one crusty.

Does he have to return what he got in disability?

I play Night Crawlers in a blanket like that one. Got some blood from my toe knife on it though.

wonder if he gets 1.5 or what's the commission of those middle men.
Posted on 9/18/17 at 3:25 pm to Chad504boy
so 10% commission, 40% in taxes, he gets roughly 700-750k to last him.
i give him 3 years

That's generous. I was going to say one year.

he only has to buy half the amount of socks so that's savings there.

How does that work?
Do people with one foot and a nub still wear two socks?
I know there's no smell, but wouldn't they still wear it for consistency?

Def generous with it. All depends on how many people come out woodwork and other factors.

My favorite part is when the auctioneer says, "Hang on to your feet."

That's probably why he was crying. It wasn't because he just got rich, he was just super butthurt at that joke.
