I think one should factor in, if they are spending more than say 5% of their cash on a cardboard picture of a dude, what they could turn that back into if they needed to, and the likelihood they will gain or lose. If you end up needing cash, how much you can get back is very relevant. That it is a better return on investment even if craters than wasting money on booze or food or circus trips isn't the only comparison.

You don't know what the card is, the OP says it won't be sold for a very long time, you and Ben are speculating about whether there's sales tax, you're assuming auction house fees, etc., etc. With so many unknown variables, including what the economy will look like down the road, why try to pretend you can make any reasonable guess at what the unspecified card might sell for after an unspecified interval? This is where I think you took this thread off topic.
