In the case of one man in New Zealand, the breakup with a jilted girlfriend cost him his passion for fishing. The man, after the breakup, refused to give the ex-girlfriend back her favorite suitcase which was deemed valuable. In what could be seen as an act of revenge or “cause and effect,” the woman who went by Angela Potter decided to sell off something valuable of his. However, the thing of value is neither physical nor tangible; but, this thing is valuable enough if you are passionate about the outdoor activity/sport of fishing. If you love fishing enough, what Potter auctioned off would be something you may be tempted to pay a good amount of money for.
Ouch, now that was way over the top. Beware a woman scorned... How much could a piece of luggage cost? Surely not as much as the mapquest to fishing nihrvana. A lot of people refuse to use their gps to find a fishing spot, the whip and Lindberg flash are two. If you do use waypoints to find a secret spot just think how much time and effort went in to finding that exact spot. Now multiply the prevailing wage, before right to work ofcourse, by the time it took and add the price of gas used to find said spot and you get an idea of what could be lost. A pricey piece of luggage might cost $300, she got $3000, depending on the spots auctioned off he could have spent $300,000 in a lifetime of fishing to find them. All's fair in love and war but just remember if you throw a piece of bread on the water it could come back a thousand fold...
Get Outdoors Downriver.
