I know quite a few collectors who are in it just for the pure enjoyment of it. Unsurprisingly (to me), they are all wealthy. The rest of us mere mortals have budgets and money is always a consideration. I have to flip cards to make money to buy more cards, so yeah, i am in a lot of it for the money. But not all of it. You can't collect obscure boxing type cards from around the world if you are in it for the money.

And as Phil ably said it, modern is a whorehouse full of 'bros looking to flip cards and gloss themselves on social media for their business acumen. Of course, on an overall scale, being the coolest modern card 'bro is like being the toughest muppet.
