Sell it all sans a couple childhood cards and my first CJ which would be left for my children as keepsakes.
he majority of the cash would go into the kids college fund and the rest would be spent on my family and I doing some fun things like a couple big trips and a new family vehicle. Some great blow sounds fun as hell though... |

I would sell so my wife wouldn't have to deal with it. I'm sure we would spend some money traveling, but I'd leave most to her and let her decide what to do with it. As my passing would be rather unexpected she would have enough other things to worry about.

Sell them all minus a few that I have after life plans for. Then my son and I are going to have the best year we can after his college needs are all taken care of. Happy New Year!

I'm surprised more folks wouldn't pass on some of their cards to hobby friends/collectors.

Cheery stuff to ponder indeed. I may start a follow up "what would you do with your collection if you contract a terrible disease in 2018 that leaves you in 24 hour excruciating pain and are required to have all 4 limbs amputated"?

I understand. I think I said originally that I would sell off my more expensive cards and then send out the lesser stuff to hobby friends. The Mantles and such that I mentioned are low grade cards and wouldn't net much in an auction anyway, so those would go out to friends too. But I agree that helping family with the bigger items makes sense for sure. Thanks, AndyH

I would sell most of my collection which would most likely go directly into my kids’ college fund and I’d probably have my boys keep a few cards or memorabilia so they can always embrace one of their dad’s hobby passions. I’d also have my wife keep a few items that I believe would increase in value so that she can reap a bigger monetary reward later on (hope that works out ![]() ![]() Andy...I’m glad you brought up passing on some lesser cards to hobby friends because that’s a great idea and now I’d look to do the same thing or at least give them a nice discount if anything...thanks for the post ![]() Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
