How are your "Goals" coming along so far

"How are your "Goals" coming along so far"

Perfectly. I don't have any.

This has been the "best" year of collecting as far as goals are concerned in my life.

Completed my 8-card e107 project including a HOFer and OP while having 4 of the 8 cards at Vg or better.
Completed n28s with a beautiful Ex Comiskey
Acquired another t206 Cobb and am 1 short on that project.
Got to 182 of 183 on the CJ master pose set with the Matty on my radar.
I finally found a 1907 FP Burke Tigers PC unused...finally.
I have downsized my collection in terms of quantity selling most of my post war cards.

So I potentially could only be looking for t206 Cobb at the National?

Congrats on those that met their goals, you other guys are slackers, ha!

My focused changed so....I guess a failed but I don't feel like it.

This was my first year collecting and I got up to 70 T206's. I was just buying to buy, I then changed focus and sold most of my original 70 cards and consolidated them into HOF Portraits. My collection now stands at 17 and I miss the cards I sold but I love my HOFers. I will now collect HOF portraits and the additional cards of Cobb, Mathewson, Wojo, and Cy Young.

I would like to get a 1914 CJ HOFer as well by years end.

The main thing is this is always so much fun.

2014 Goals:
1. Mantle Master Set: add one more U.S. issued card (will finish out my set of nationally issued Mantle cards), add the final three postcards I need, and pick up at least one foreign issued card I am still looking for (preferably 1-2 of the Venezuelans that are still on my list.
-I finished all of the mainstream cards, picked up a handful of the rare regionals, and managed to get one foreign card (a Post Canadian instead of the Venezuelan I was chasing). Still looking for one of the three postcards but have since added a couple to the list.

2. Get married.
-The fiance is sleeping peacefully in my bed after an evening of wedding planning. I found the perfect balance of jewelry and baseball cards, or at least a good enough one to keep her around.

All and all, I think I am making some decent progress. There are a handful of other cards I'd love to pick up. But, I am slowly checking things off my list while adding money to the wedding fund, house fund, and retirement fund.

The first half of the year has come and went and I am pretty much on track:

1. Period Cy Young < $200

Got it - Dominoes Disc

2. 10 hits to my type collection

On target with five hits thus far

3. 10 hits to my player collections

Done

4. Add 15 34-36 Diamond Stars

Got four - all HOF'ers - Ott, Maranville, Manush, and Lopez

5. Take more trips to my existing binders and enjoy what I have.

This will get more attention in the second half.

Lets see:

Goal number one: spend less than I actually make (check)
Goal number two: come up with some goals (not yet)
Goal number three: collect whatever comes up that I like at the time. (check)

Two out of three, not bad.
