This thread has seriously opened my eyes for the better! My fear has always been that I'll be too old to enjoy my collection one day. I mean what am I going to do one day when I am in a nursing home, sit in my room and stare at a box of my autographs? I enjoy them now off course but I always think how will I enjoy then in keys say 30 years from now ? Maybe it's better to sell it all now and use that money to enjoy life now! Thank you for this thread as I thought I was the only one with this dilemma. They always say life is short and enjoy life today and live in the now! An example is, awhile back I sold a Roy Campanella autograph for $500. I paid $500 for it so I broke even on it. I didn't make a profit , just got back what I paid for it . I did miss the signed card a lot but to be honest it sure was nice to have five Benjamin's in my pocket instead!
