Default Collector or Investor (or both) - Which are you?

Posted By: Josh K.

I am a collector first, but I sell off items that I dont want to fund cards that I do want. For example, I used to collect as a kid - 50's through early 90's then stopped for nearly ten-twelve years (still liked the cards, just didnt buy anything). I got back into collecting about 2 years ago and went head first into vintage cards about a year ago. Ive been selling some of my original cards to offset the new vintage cards.

I also hope to keep my cards to pass down to my kids - however, Ive got two daughters both under age 3 (meaning I have no idea if they will even like sports let alone baseball) and I am unlikely to have any more (ie no sons) - so I may be waiting for the grandkids.
