In case anyone is interested ... $3.7m at the coal face and around $350k of conversations ongoing ... and a bunch of stuff I didn't really want to sell coming home ... not a bad hourly rate for a 5 hour shift . Hope you are happy and busy
The auction was held on what would have been Crowe's 15th wedding anniversary with former wife Danielle Spencer and also Crowe's 54th birthday.
