You know what? I'd take bragging rights. Just to be a real part of it. I play in a fantasy stable league and it's so much fun. I "own" the filly who won the KY Oaks on Friday. It was thrilling. I own Rushing Fall, I owned Beholder and Covfefe their entire careers. Ok, so it's in a fantasy league. Yet it's still so much fun. It's an emotional connection to a sport I love.

I would love to invest in real life. Maybe one day I will be able to afford to do it. But for a $206 investment in Authentic I'd take bragging rights and wouldn't give a fig of ROI. What a thrilling race to win!
