DeBeers diamond company, thank you for the cigars

[FUEL]

So I get to the mail yesterday and there is some sort of check I got mailed to me. Opened it and it stated it was a check for settling a class action lawsuit and it was my piece of the pie. I thought is this a con? One of those deals where if you deposit the check you are on the hook for the money plus interest.

As it turns out it was legit. I spent a pretty penny on the ex-wife's engagement ring, wedding ring, my wedding ring as well as other jewelry gifts for her over our 8 years. Apparently I filled out the online form over 2 years ago and DeBeers coughed up about a $500 million I believe and they just started distributing the checks last week.

I have not bought cigars since long before the flying humidor incident and yes, could the money have been used elsewhere, yes, but after the year I have had I thought you know, treat yourself to something already and fact of the matter is its not your money. So popped over the border today to pick up a few things in Hudson, WI.



You only live once right?

Now off to a Viaje event tonight and tomorrow the mack daddy of the summer, the largest Liga Privada / Drew Estate / Joya de Nicaragua event in the upper Midwest sans Chicago.

Can't wait!

PS - "Lone Star Mafia," they may not be quite as big as the bombs you sent me as they are spread over 3 people but payback is coming...
