What greatly emotionally attached object have you sold to start up your business?
And did it have appreciating value?
Im considering selling something I have to help fund my startup due to unforseen family expenses eating up part of my startup's original fund. Problem is it continues to go up in value, and finding a replacement will literally cost me 2-3 times what Id be able to currently sell it for since its current condition is poor. So Im mostly curious if others have also had to make a great sacrifice like this and either never looked back or were able to eventually find their item's replacement.
