Man buys $27 of bitcoin, forgets about them, finds they're now worth $886k

I mined 50 in the early days - it took just under a week if I remember rightly then I got 5 for free from some outfit that was promoting the system then promptly forgot about them. I think in total they were worth about NZ$6 at the the time so imagine my utter joy a couple of years later when I checked online and found they were worth just over $200! I promptly sold them and was pretty happy until a few months ago when I found they would have then been worth about $7000. And today? About $14,000. Don’t follow me around looking for investment tips.
