I'm pretty much the same sort of collector. I like it all, but don't have the budget to consider chasing a set, or most subsets. Or perhaps it's the discipline to only buy one card a month or less that I just don't have.

So what I have is a very eclectic collection. Covering most sports, and from 1887-2012.

I'd call my style "opportunistic collecting" I have stuff I'm currently interested in, but I won't pass up a nice deal on a card or bunch of cards just because it's not what I currently want.

If you have to have a focus, a few ideas -
One card from each decade 1880's till now.
A type set from any one main issuer- Bowman is pretty easy, Goodwin not so easy.
Stuff like that.
