The reason I'm interested in value is not for the GROWTH of my bank account, but rather for the DECLINE of my bank account. It will cost me money to purchase what I want. So I am interested in value and possible future value so I can decide if I should buy now or wait. If I think prices are way too high, and they will come down, I will relax my aggressiveness and buy later. If I think prices are stable and aren't coming down, then I will remain aggressive and go after what I want now. That's why I care about values and money - to "further some goal" - and that goal is my collection, not the expansion of my bank account.
