Well, I started CRH about 8 or 9 months ago doing a box a week, and upping it as my bank roll allowed it. At my peek, I was doing 40-50 boxes a week, and it was a blast. It's all fun and games till you lose a bank account..... or 4! This year, its just been harder and harder to order coins, and get rid of them. After being threatened to have having the police and who knows who else on me, I toned it down a bit. I was doing one pick up a week with 20 boxes, from 3 branches. Pulling from 3 different areas. The finds in general are down so much this year, I think I'm below .7 coins per box. Don't get me wrong, I still love the hunt. For those of you who don't know, I'm just a high school kid making some cash CRH, I'm not in it for the long term, and I don't have a regular job or steady income, Just CRH and selling coins. Well after getting my bankroll to over 10k, I finally peaked in my CRH journey. I want to thank all of those who helped me out when starting, and all those who I've talked to regularly, Mav, 50, Em, Dan, Streetwalker Kyle, Prison Guard in my area, MTL, and of course, the infamous Tim. I plan to CRH 1-4 boxes a week if my budget will allow. College will be starting in August, so gotta get hunting before then.
So why am I going to stop CRH you may ask? Because this recent beauty popped up in my area of a KILLER deal, I couldn't pass down. The car I've wanted for as long as I can remember, a C5 corvette. Lucky for me, I was able to use the money I made from CRH to purchase this car, so I wanted to thank CRH for the car, as well as a fun adventure I'll never really be able to let go, Picture below.

Nice car!

In 2004 I bought a new Z06 and thought the insurance was absolutely ridiculous for a 34 year old that had never even had a speeding ticket. At your age I imagine the insurance is more expensive than the car.

Congrats - you put in the work and earned it. Nice car. As for the poor results lately perhaps you finally reached the end of the supply from your source bank. Unfortunately they were possibly resupplied with...the coins you dumped. If they went back to the Fed they were likely on top and back out they come to the only distributor in the area actually ordering halves. Hard to avoid this in the long run unless you can dump in multiple Fed districts.

If you only had 50 cents per coin invested and you sold them for the great ride, your really driving a SMOKIN deal. Good luck on the next step in your life!!

Cool car man, and congrats on your success. But if I were you, I'd take that money and invest it in an IRA. By the time you are retired, that money would double about 7 times. ($10k could turn into about $1 million!!). That's my biggest regret: not starting a retirement plan sooner. I'm not trying to put you down for your decision by any means. Just some advice from someone who's 40 and been in your shoes.
