They spelled Mickey's last name wrong...not a good start for this venture.

I happened to be watching CNBC when the piece aired. I had the same thought on big money in the hobby. It is not clear to me what the plan is to monetize
the site. Ads? Ebay type platform? Selling user lists? All three plus? I found it interesting when the Reddit guy said "my expertise is seeing trends, at times 10 years before it happens" or something along those lines and "a friend of mine said collecting cards etc. is back." The Reddit guy seems like a real collector. I say that because he had the computer game he remembered playing as a kid in a slab. I was unaware that cartridges of that size could be slabbed. His collection seems all over the place. Mantel is the name not Mantle.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Nobody is a bigger fan of Ohanian, Aoki and Vaynerchuk than Oahanian, Aoki and Vaynerchuk....I think Gary V made some good money Pumping and dumping NFT's and Junk wax, so this might be his next grift.
