His First Home Was A Garage Sale Buy
Naturally, Mike Wolfe frequents garage sales since, they’re the ideal places to find valuable, overlooked items. Strangely enough, he purchased his first home at a garage sale. During his interview with Fast Company he revealed, “This guy was having a garage sale, and I ask him what he wanted for it [the house], and he goes, ‘I want 60K.’ I looked around and go, ‘You know what, I’ll take it.’ It wasn’t my dream home, it wasn’t the place I was going to die, but I saw an opportunity.”

“My City Has Pretty Much Turned Its Back On Me”
Although, Fritz doesn’t ask much of people, he does desire some recognition from his very own hometown. During Fritz’s interview with Quad-Times, he told them, “It feels like my city has pretty much turned its back on me. The Quad-Cities has a few people who have done something special. Look at (Living Lands & Waters’) Chad Pregracke. I went to his premiere at the Adler when his pilot episode aired (the show was not picked up). I was happy to promote him. I like to help people…But no one in Davenport ever asks.”
