I would invest half of it in low risk mutual funds and then take the other half over to my friend Asadulah who works in securities...

Boston Store Ruth
Rookie Rookie
Boston Store Jackson
A few other Jackson's although I would never spend 200K on a T210

Why did you pick 10K, it's a good sizable number and there aren't a ton of cards that go for more then that on a regular basis.

Forget the mutual fund, buy a nice ETF instead. No management fees. The benefit of mutual funds over ETFs used to be more assets under management, but that gap is narrowing. ETFs trade like stocks, so you don't have to wait until after the end of the trading day to see that NAV calculation.

I'd travel back to 1909 in a time machine and buy up all the cigarette packs I could with the money, which would be a lot for 10Gs!

Of course the flaw to my plan here is my dependency on a fully functional time machine. Oh and the second flaw would be travelling back to 1909 with 2013 currency.

Adrian, got a stash of 1909 coins I could borrow?

Let's jump in a Delorean. I can get her up to 88 mph, even loaded up with a little gold. I only ask for first dibs on any nice T206 Walter Johnson portrait I find!

Absolutely, Matt. I don't mind a few extra hops so long as the plutonium holds out!

You wouldn't need plutonium anymore, just garbage, and the 1980's boxes and boxes of cards would do just fine

If we can find those, I'd just want one of each for my collection. The rest are yours.

I'd Look for an Old Judge California league player, or Anson in street clothes.

Take me! I have plenty of pre-1910 coins we could use. Heck I have actual dollar bills and silver dollars!

We can even stock up on Brooklyn Atlantics cards with this 1865 fortune...$0.16!
