So i got one more question, would you give up your “most precious” cards for $5m if you got the offer. Sorry to drop this bomb on y’all lol. I’d love to hear your answers.

I’d definitely consider it. My wife would take it in a heartbeat.

I’d probably want you to make it $10M, so that I could net $5M after taxes.

At the same time, it’s an uncomfortable feeling recognizing that there’s a price at which I would sell. And it sort of brings your whole collection into play at that point, even if the price is ludicrous.

It reminds me of the joke from the economist’s joke book:

An economist walks up to a woman and asks, “Would you sleep with me for $1M?”

To which she replies: “Why, I suppose I would.”

To which he responds, “How about for $100?”

She then objects, “What kind of a woman do you think I am??!!!”

And then he retorts, “Madam, we have already established that. Now we are merely negotiating on the price!”
