He is annoying to me for promoting the mindset that the value of cards is what matters above all else. He knows that is the culture in this hobby that draws the most eyeballs and leads to his endorsement opportunities. I'm just disappointed that the commodity and gambling aspects of the modern hobby are the most visible and end up drawing in the kids.
He ultimately ends up on my ignore list as I prefer to utilize my time watching people who are like myself in viewing card value as simply the boundary condition to the cards I wish to acquire. Once the acquisition is made, the cards get admired regularly with no regard to their value. Any emotional aspect to value is tied to the fact that I feel very fortunate to be able to own some of these amazing cards. Barring some unforeseen future circumstance, the only people who will benefit from my collection value will be my wife or kids.
