That took some stones.

Hi guys,
I just have a question about a phrase, which I didn't find in the dictionaries and I'm not 100% sure about the right meaning...Two guys are talking...
A: You didn't take that job?
B: Yeah, I turned that job down.
A: And that took some stones. I respect that.

Does "that took some stones" mean "And that must have been really hard decision"? Or does it mean something else?
thanks guys
Best Regards
JCD

Hi, No, it's a polite way of saying that's a brave decision. Stones is another way of saying you have the b*lls to do something, JC. You might wanna look at this .
