article on psa website

I just read the article. At first it seemed to be about how quick a basic T206 set could be built with 200k. So he did it in 8 months with mid to high grades. He met many new people while building it. He sold it to move on to the next project. So he basically did what alot of us do but just very quickly. I guess theres nothing wrong with that. Maybe he gets his natural high by quickly completing a set and moving on. He definitly didn't have any attachment to the cards and that probably helps in this case. I believe thats where many of us are different. Seems we are more attached to our collectibles because we get one here and there and enjoy them while the next card comes along. What would be interesting to know is exactly how much he spent and exactly how much the set sold for when completed. In 8 months you don't have time to wait for the right card to come around at the right price, you just have to settle for whats available and pay whats being asked. As far as an article being written for the rest of us, who knows, maybe PSA will realize there are many people on this forum that are hobby legends in their own specialized fields and that a story can be just as interesting about a collector in the middle of their journey of a life long legacy.
