Phil, you're still short 23k
So Phil stumbles upon a check for $47,000 in his car.That ought to nicely solve the problem Dice alerted him to six months ago:
I bought a bunch of new socks today. I didn’t have enough space in my sock drawer to put all of the new ones, so I removed my drawer and emptied it on the floor to sort through them. At the bottom of my sock drawer I have a wooden lock box where I keep various bits of paraphernalia. As long as I was cleaning out my sock drawer, I figured that I may as well clean this out too. It had a few pictures, a corn cob pipe, etc… But way at the very bottom was a contract. It is from October 1995, a half year before Phil moved in with me. I had completely forgotten about it until I read it.
--Dice
The contract involved Dice buying 3000+ shares of Phil's personal Netsys stock, redeemable as soon as Netsys shares had a cash value. On the date Dice sent that mail, those 3000 shares were worth $70k.
