Rest of 2021

Last year I told our financial planner that cards would smoke his picks over the next decade. So far true. My wife actually asked me why I hadn't put more money into cards 20 years ago. Umm, because if I came home and said I used the 401K money to buy baseball cards I'd have been in divorce court?

One of the most perfect examples of female logic I have heard in a long time.

Paraphrasing Sam Cooke's 1960 song....."Wonderful World"

Don't know much about history,
Don't know much about "crypto-currency",
Don't know much about high finances,
Don't know much about risky chances,
Don't know much about this crazy BB card market,
But, I do know much about BB cards to make it,
Without spending a fortune on Graded,
What a wonderful world it would be,
if this hobby's prices once more were reasonably.

Anyhow those "lyrics" essentially express my feelings regarding the current state of this hobby.
These totally ridiculous prices will eventually ruin this hobby. Seldom does such greed succeed.

Many in this hobby have become more interested in pictures of "Presidents, etc." printed on paper than pictures
of BASEBALL players printed on cardboard........

Well said, Ted.

I like that our hobby is thriving, I don't like that our hobby becomes seemingly treated more and more like a commodities market each passing month. It's quite frankly ridiculous, that you can buy "shares" of a card in my opinion.
