Probably not the cards.
And that's based on my experience as a collector for closing on 50 years.
Some but only a handful of my cards have done very well. Most have not compared to the stock market. I've tended towards quantity, so when T206s were 1.50 for VG commons and 10 for most HOFers, I would buy the commons. I got a bunch of cards to enjoy instead of just one. (I'd actually buy more like 3 -5 VG or less T206s, a 48 Bowman some random junk and a few packs. Which only makes it worse. )
