NFTs are not an organic market, it's a manufacturered market. Not saying money can't be made in NFT's but one should know the difference before investing.

Pretty much one of the points of comparison in the article. It comes down to the old saying "If it's made to be collectible, it's not" of course that's what manufactured scarcity is intended to combat, whether it's in Beanie Babies, Cards or NFT's

What was the last "organic" rookie card? Was it Rickey Henderson? When did all the companies start making "rated rookies" and "prookies"? Modern cards are made to be "valuable" right out of the box, and wildly traded, not unlike an nft.

I'm open to listening to any and all * legal * methods to make more money to buy more cards. NFTs, crypto, beanie babies... whatever it takes. All about timing, though. NFTs & crypto hold a bit more solidified weight it seems, but stuff like beanie babies has a rise, then a permanent fall.

Just take out a pandemic protection loan, even if you need 6o pay back 1%, it's a great short term loan because cards just go up. (Not financial advice) oh then brag on the monthly pickup thread, almost forgot that one!

Read the article. There are Beanies that still sell for thousands including one from 2016
