Default My 100th t206!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey guys! I reached a very monumental landmark in my pursuit of slaying monster. I've finally reached number 100! T206 George McQuillan, SGC 40. I started collecting in 2010, so it's been about 3.5 years now. I'm very proud of myself, being only 17, to have just reached #100! I started with Fred Parent, which graded a 50, and now, I'm hooked for life. I want to keep following my dream, and now I have my sights set on #200. I cannot thank everyone on the board enough for their generous contributions, and for teaching me so much. I cannot wait to continue my journey. Thanks for all being here to help me celebrate.

Strive to be happy.

Great Job!

I started around the same age, and despite having the advantage of the cards being cheap probably didn't get to 100 for about 10 years.

Keep going, you'll be close to 520 before you know it.
