What is really so unbelievable is that she was turned down by many publishers. Then one printed only 500 books to see if it would sell. Wow. Did those publishers all miss a winner. And they will never forget their lack of vision on that one!
Same with James Herriot, the vet books chronicling his life in the Yorkshire Dales in the UK: eventually found a publisher in the USA, and they took off. NB One of the Rowling 's 500 first edition books sold recently at auction for $50K or so.

It used to be owned by Johnny Depp, but now JK Rowling owns it. It's up for sale for $19.2 million. You can find more pictures of this 156' yacht online.
My son took these pictures near the Hudson River. He used his camcorder to get individual shots.

With all her money, she could just give it to me and not miss it. Or maybe she'll just adopt me.
Reminds me of an old joke where two wealthy men were arguing and one says to the other, "I could buy and sell you ten times!" The reply was, "I could buy you and not have to sell you!"

"I used to have a ranch in Texas. I could get into my truck and drive from dawn till dusk and not get to the end of it."
"Yeah, I used to have a truck like that."
