Serious What's the best personal good luck you've ever experienced?

[K.I.T.T.]

I've had many moments of good luck in my own life, but the very best has to be the day that I found a discarded backpack on the side of the road containing exactly $7000 in banded bills and some other items.

I called the Sheriff's office and asked if anyone had reported a missing backpack and they said no. I asked if I was obligated to turn it in and they said no again, unless there were drugs inside. (There wasnt.)

I waited about a month and called the Sheriff's office again and still nobody had reported it missing so I deposited it in the bank and was grateful for it. I had just turned twenty, my fiancé was pregnant and that money helped us a lot.

What about you? What's the best good luck you've ever experienced?

I tore down an old building that just so happened to be an abandoned crematorium and as I was destroying the area where the oven was I kept finding gold teeth I found 120 g of 18 carat dental gold it was pretty morbid but I melted it all down and took it to a jeweler and sold it for $7,600. Really it was a score because I only tore the building down for $2,000.

Meeting my wife almost 23 years ago. We were 17 and 16 and should have been at school (different schools). It was a totally random meeting, at the Botanical Gardens with the bear pit I posted on @ZeroK profile, and we have spent our lives together since that day.

If I didn't get bad luck I wouldn't get any luck at all

Was working for a cell company in NYC replacing transformers in cell tower equiptment rooms. I ended up running the warehouse for about a year. The transformers were already pilled up in the warehouse when I took the job.
I get curious one night and take one of them apart. Inside is about a 7lb peice of aluminum.
Turns out we were paying a company to dispose of these things for us. I take one to a scrap metal warehouse and the guy looks at it and says "hell yea we will buy it."
I call my company and tell them I am disposing of them through a private company and it will be 100$ cheaper. So for the rest of the year I pocketed 800$ a month disposal fee, and about 4k per month for the aluminum. All this on top of my salary. It was a good year.

I won a motorcycle (first prize) and a ceiling fan (fourth prize) in the same live raffle with two different numbers that i bought...

Who was saying the raffle numbers live couldn't believe it and started to laugh...

500$ cash on the ground. In the curb directly in front of my home, couple days after I got married. Felt like a good omen, we went to a Michelin rated restaurant.

I bet Michelin tires are delicious if prepared well! 🤣

"On the menu tonight we have a wonderful steel-belted off-road tire that pairs well with Castrol 10-40w. Dessert this evening is a scrumptious Fram air filter that was picked fresh from a 1985 Ford station-wagon."

That's incredible! You melted the gold down yourself or did you take it somewhere?

I have to ask, how did you spend the money?

Played the Lucky Numbers off of a fortune cookie my Mom got from take out. Four of those numbers hit for 250.00. The fifth number was one off and would have been 12 large.

That sucks. I had a terribly abusive father so I can sort of relate. I hope you experience some good fortune in your life, sounds like you could use it.

A little bit of good luck is better than none at all, right?

Been there done that and nearly died, I was lucky, I used anything and everything, (except jenkum) for 6 years, went homeless thought it was liberating for the first year then fuck fuck fuckety fuck it got shitty and a hassle trying to figure out where i was going in life so i quit everything and got my shit back together again. Life's too short to spend it all chasing drugs and junkie pussy.
