If only we had gone all in on Beanie Babies. We cleared $20K+ selling BBs on the side of the road that year. I wanted to spend our whole savings and hire people to sell them for us - we were buying them out the back doors of Hallmark stores. Wife didn't. But we still made enough to put down a sizable down payment on our current house.

It was a crazy time. Crazy people fighting each other for cheap stuffed animals.
