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

Posted By: Anonymous

Collector.

My few attempts at investing where collosal busts, because at one time I was an idiot. I got caught up in the rookie card hype of the late 80's and early 90's and traded the "4 Horsemen" and "Don Hutson" Topps All American cards from 1955 for a bunch of Eric Davis 85 Topps, Cory Snyder rookies, and Todd Worrell rookies around 1990.

How stupid was that?

Now I just collect whatever I like. Cardinals stuff, Brock and Gibson, lately I've been buying pre WW2 stuff on Ebay. If it's a player I remember from when I was a kid, and I like the card, I'll buy it.
