Nice tantrum. Find something new in your life. Get out side more. Stop watching the news.

I stepped out on my back porch this afternoon and read a chapter in a book on Charles Bender. Beautiful weather...left Dogs...especially the loud one...inside.

Drank some ice-cold water and didn't touch my phone once.

Anytime someone rues the state of the hobby and the greed of the companies, just remember that one of the hobby's most iconic cards (Goudey Lajoie) is only that way because Goudey was being dishonest with the public.

I love this hobby/forum, I haven't been around long compared to others here but I've met the most knowledgeable, generous, genuine people in this little corner of the hobby, willing to help network and build each others collections.

Yes, I'm exhausted/frustrated that the cards I want are increasing in price faster than I can save but I'm also content with what I have built so far and am able to still pick up cards I want in my collection.

I also won't deal with sketchy people in the hobby, AH's, sellers, etc. too many good people to surround myself with to even give those types my time.

But really, its the friendships that are the most meaningful in this hobby, all that other stuff is just silly noise.

Some legit gripes for sure but if you really can't see why other collectors would want a really beat up old baseball card, then maybe you aren't in the right place and would be better off leaving.

Collect what you like, why would anyone care what others collect or if they only buy to invest or if they can only afford beat up cards? Is it really worth getting worked up over?
