And anyway, the point is that Ruth and Cobb and Mantle and Robinson and Gehrig are almost certainly not among the best guys to invest in at this point. Most likely there are some cards worth less than $100 today that will be worth over $10,000 a generation from now.
In hindsight everyone makes millions. Good luck predicting NOW who those great investments are.
