First off great thread....love reading what people have for goals this upcoming year for their collections. Well last year i didn't do one. Maybe because I really didn't get involved back into the hobby until may or june. Bummer oh well here is to the 2014 year

--2014 Goals--

1. I would love to do more deals and become more involved with fellow members on here. Get to know everyone's collections and interests. I have shows in the MA area all the time so you never know what I come across. Could be something here to help someones collection.

2. Really like to obtain at least another 33 more PSA 5+ 1934 Goudey's including the 1934 Goudey Lou Gehrig #37 for my set. Currently at 15 cards in my set. That will give me a half completed set.

So i do have some work ahead of me so here's to 2014. Best of luck on everyone's goals this year.

2013 - Finished the big one a couple hours ago, still looking for the last 2013 goal in the sig line.

2014 - Spend less money, finish the n28s and call it good. Also, enjoy the National.

I feel like I am back at work measuring performance. So here goes

2013

1. Complete the 1935 Goudey set- one to go, Ruth
2. Ten SGC 80 or higher added- yep, exceeded that.
3. Get the monster over 300 - yes. See my sig lne
4. T206 Elberfeld graded- learned to spell, settled for a nice raw example
5. Add two HOFers - not chasing the big 2, need Matty white cap; success
6. Avoid another set - yeah, right, big time loser on this. Started e91c, r312, Clemente set, 1933 Goudey.

2014

1. As for goals next year, nope. You can't fire me, I quit.
2. As a friend quoted a story to me one day, " you have raised my salary down for the last time, **** me, I quit".
3. Build a few rods, buy and sell a few cards.
4. Bosses, soccer players, and hockey players like goals, but goalies are my new friends. Screw goals!
5. Decide, or not, to chase after Demmit and O'hara, St. louis.....
6. Honor my friends and family, enjoy my acquaintances, laugh a little, eat less and fish more.
7. Spend another year in the company of those fine individuals on Net54

Peace

Technically I made headway on the Hindus, but not by much. Same goes for the T207s. I decided halfway through the year to focus more on selling off much of my collection in order to help pay for a new home. I'm finding it's a lot easier to buy than to sell. Making some headway, but still have a ton of material to go through. Getting tired of printing shipping labels...

Goals for 2014?
Sell off rest of T206 commons, game used balls, modern cards (except my Bryce Harper master set that's in progress), and a few other things here and there.

2013:
1. continue improving my t206 set - check
2. finish 33 goudey - check (close enough)
3. better define my pre-war type-collection goal - I think it defined itself for me. I reached 85-90 different relatively easily then it slowed way down. I'm at 97 now and wouldn't mind reaching 100.
4. add a couple of cards to my t207 subset - got to within 1 - it's a multi-hundred dollar card that I may never decide to go for, not that I've had many opportunities this year (maybe twice?)

2014:
1. Continue to develop and maintain a relaxed pace on all my collecting projects.
2. 50's, 60's, 70's topps/bowman hofer run - acquire all the "easy" ones.
3. Dabble with my t206 set - less than 10 left on my list to upgrade, pick up a few more less common backs to sprinkle into the mix.
4. Reach 100 different pre-war types.
5. add to my e-card, t210, and t212 subsets


Happy Holidays everyone!
