Man plans to buy home with proceeds from 28 bottles of birthday whiskey
2020-09-08
[NYP] A man in England is planning to purchase a home using money from the sale of 28 bottles of whiskey his father gifted to him each year for his birthday.

The collection of Macallan single malt obtained by Matthew Robson, of Taunton, is worth about $53,000, BBC reported. Robson’s father, Pete, had forked over about $6,500 for the booze.

"Each year I received it as a birthday present," Robson told the outlet. "I thought it was quite a quirky little present as I was slightly too young to start drinking."

He continued: "But I was under strict instructions, never, never to open them and I tried my hardest and succeeded and they’re all intact."

#1  He would be happier with the whiskey while it lasted than he will with the house when he has it.
