A silver lining...

Recently, I had my World of Warcraft hacked.
It was a sad time for me.
However, after a load of complaining and begging to Blizzard, they've got my account back.
I log on to find each character has received a complimentary 1000g

This means I am now a hell of a lot richer than before.

Has something bad happened to you, then something amazingly good as a direct consequence of what's happened?

Mine is wow related: My friends are arseholes and kept rolling 'need' for items they couldnt use, just to stop each other getting them.

I dont associate with them anymore, and it (at the same time) crippled any chance i had to get addicted to warcrack.

The silver lining in the orange juice cartons helps keeps it fresh and stops it leaking through the sides...so that's good.

At my old job, my boss was an arsehole, I got angry and quit one day, and it lead to a better job. The one I'm at now, in fact...which has just come under new management...by one of the most infuriating people I've ever met...
