Interesting comments thus far. I am very lucky to have entered the hobby
before prices went supersonic and am very happy with my collection (can
always get better, but I'd be a fool to complain). Personal financial goals are
irrelevant for me strictly in terms of the hobby. I made one promise to myself
years ago that I take seriously- I vowed not to sell collectibles unless the
purpose was to buy another collectible. I am knocking on wood daily and not
stepping on cracks on the sidewalk- to this day I haven't violated that oath.
I am very fortunate and know it
