I certainly hope the market stays strong as much as anyone, but I do worry about things like crazy prices on low pop commons and the massive amount of newer era stuff out there.

A couple things to keep in mind...
1) There are 30% more people in US now than there were in 1990, and the trend will continue. Theoretically, more people = more potential fans/collectors, aka increased demand.
And 2) Are there a lot of these cards out there? You bet. But there will continue to be floods, fires, and all sorts of other events that, over the decades, will wipe out collections, aka decreased supply.
I am also in my 30s, but not worried one bit about cardmageddon...at least not in our lifetime anyways.
