I also decided to just focus on building one set that I really, really enjoy instead of focusing on several sets at a time. I love building sets, but I don't like taking a year or more to build a set. I get tired of it and wind up selling or trading it and moving on to something else.
So I wanted to put my finances and focus on one set and then pick up stars/HOFers only from other years (and not doing those sets … not yet anyway).

This is a great, great point. Looking back, when I still tried to build 50s and 60s sets, I see now that I made two mistakes. 1. To your point, I took too long (often due to financial reasons) and got bored and didn't finish. 2. I aimed too high condition-wise. This ended up causing the sets to cost me more $, which takes me back to point #1. Ugh....
Good luck!!
