Long shot

A few months after I was born my Dad bought a $5,000 life insurance policy for me. The year was 1977.

It's fully paid up and now provides a modest dividend of $36.65. He passed away last year so now the dividend comes to me.

Everyone that ever met my Dad would quickly find out three things.

  1. He loved sports cars

  2. He loved watches, Girard Perregaux in particular.

  3. He loved to put small amounts of money on long shot investments

It is with with these principles in mind that I have decided to purchase $36.65 in Polestar shares. He would have loved the look of that car and that it is cutting edge technology.

If the stock 100 x or more, which is very unlikely the money will be used to buy a "F-You" level Girard Perregaux in his honor.

If it happens I'm gonna tell everyone I paid $36 dollars for the watch.
