Collecting for a long time is a red herring. It isn't the amount that you paid for the cards, it is the amount that it is worth today. Forgetting tax ramifications and selling costs, every day the person decides to keep money in their collection instead of in the bank/paying off debts etc.
I agree that it would have have been better as a percentage of net worth and depending on where they were in the the baby steps.
