Anybody have a total pop on both of the cards in the SGC and PSA registry's? Just curious.

I don't make enough to buy the cards I want unless I eventually plan on parting with some of them. Do I like that, no. It unfortunately is called "reality". At one point I had more money into my baseball cards than the entire cost I paid for my house. The balances are now tipped the other way, but I sit and look at them and realize cold hard cash is a retirement plan and my baseball cards are a partial gamble, no matter how much I like them.
I try to strike a balance between them and move my interests to make sure I don't lose my ass while having fun.
