Default How much money is out there?

Posted By: jay behrens

On a percentage basis, I wouldn't rank The George Miller cards as one of the best. I remember around 1985 paying $200 for a really nice common. At the same time, I was paying less than $10 for NM t206s. Also, commons have far outperformed HOFers on a percentage basis.

In the 80s, I did a lot business as a consultant building collections as an investment. My first piece of advice I gave to them was to buy things that they had some connection to such as a favorite player, team, etc. That way, when the market gets soft or bottoms out, you still have something that makes you feel good when you look at it.

I like to sit outside drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home I would be arrested, so I go to baseball games and fit right in.
