A lot of these so called investors
are actually just well heeled collectors with tons and tons of money. Some are athletes, some are actually team owners, and yes some came from wall street and silicon valley. I would be careful assuming they have no love for the game or hobby simply because they are extremely wealthy. I think its pretty cool that cards are being looked at more on the level with other high end collectibles. Like others stated lots of people my age grew up with baseball cards as a key part of our lives and many of these people have made boatloads of coin and are in a great position.
