Default He who has the most cards ...

So much for the philosophy that he who has the most cards when one dies, wins !
I am fortunate that I was able to keep and add to my collection as my 4 kids attended and graduated from college(my youngest does so in two weeks). Each had (has) a small student loan but I believe that when they have skin in the game, they are more likely to take their education seriously and complete it in 4 years. My wife and I were able to pay about 75% of their costs at in- state colleges.
It always makes me sad when a serious and passionate collector decides it is necessary to sell his collection that took years to assemble.
You are a better man and father than I.
