When Scott shut down Info Express Inc in 1994 he moved most of the stuff that was in his shop and office into three or four storage units not to far from where the office had been. And it sat there, accruing monthly charges, until 2007.
Scott flew to the USA on January 23rd, 2007. He stayed for 45 days, splitting his time between family and work. On February 19th he bought a Tuff Shed that was 10×16 on the ground floor with a 10×12 loft that you could get to via a very steep set of steps.
The Tuff Shed company built it on site, in the back yard of his folks’ place. I don’t think he stayed around long enough to move all the stuff in himself, but it did get moved in.
The shed cost over $5k, and those storage units had to add up to a lot of money 17 or 18 years. Way more than the value of the stuff in the shed.
Hold that thought until we get to 2012.
