I voted "Just a card collector", although that's not entirely true.
I have been an avid sports fan and card collector since I was 6 years old; but as rules change, favorite players have retired, and prices skyrocket for the live experience I find myself following modern sports less and less. The last NBA game my wife and I went to I spent over $600.00 for two decent lower level tickets, arena concession food, and parking. It doesn't matter if I can easily afford it that price is obscene to me for a couple hours of entertainment watching multi-millionaires play a game. I still collect vintage and enjoy the history of the games, but I find myself collecting a lot of things other than sports cards these days.
I'm sure I'll collect something as long as I'm breathing. It just may not continue to be sports cards.
