Default Baseball cards as an asset class

Posted By: Frank Wakefield

Invest in mutual funds. Invest in stocks, or bonds. Invest in real estate. Invest in an education, your own or your spouse's, or your child's. Invest in your home.

Baseball cards are not an investment. Even if someone wants them to be, even if someone thinks that's what they're doing... they're fooling themselves. Their frontal lobe needs further development.

If baseball cards are an investment, then they're a poorly chosen investment. Worse than first edition books, better than Happy Meal toys.

Collecting baseball cards is a hobby. Investing in baseball cards is foolishness.
