Default Fortune cookie your way to wealth

Being a collector and occasional seller of lower condition cards, I believe it means that now is the time to collect 'good' condition cards.

Well thank goodness it didn't say "Time to Collect Those NM-MT," because then I'd really have a problem.

The first thing that I looked at was that what you are holding is a miscut. This particular fortune has neighbors and possibly was a fortune in the middle of the sheet; though your hand makes it difficult to see that upper left corner to draw any formal conclusions.

After analyzing the miscut; I then noticed the wording.

I believe it means collect good people and neighbors around you. Once you have made considerable progress at this, then try to work on those that seem to be headed down the wrong path and turn them good.

A guy headed down the wrong path in our industry may be the guy misleading people by messing around with graded holders and cards. That would be just one example.

Take care Charlie

Dan, send it in for Grading...although it looks trimmed. Top and right borders are short.
