Or, do you plan on being burried with it? Of course, that would be hard for some of you since it would take 100 coffins (with acid-free and archival top of course). Just something I was pondering on a kinda slow day.
I actually just itemized all of my items 100 dollars or more(2009); marked down what I paid(rough date) and the current market value in my mind. I have scans of everything on a mini zip drive with corresponding numbers as they relate to my spreadsheet. Currently I have it all communicated and willed.
At least this will give a picture and dates associated to my collection's worth. I will try to update the "today's market" column yearly. I HOPE IT GOES WAY UP BEFORE I DIE.
