if you think this was sad, someone spent millions of dollars on Babe Ruth's rookie card.

Many years when I was a child we used to take all the baseball & hockey cards and put them on the bicycles with a clothes pin to flap on the spokes. I likely ruined a few rookie cards in the younger days.

I did the same thing. The cards that would come with a slab of bubble gum in the package were thicker cards and made more noise. To us, it was the equivalent of today's grown up on a Harley. It makes a lot of noise, goes nowhere fast and you have to stop and fix the cards every few blocks! :biggrin:

Back in those days no one ever realized that all that stuff was going to be worth a fortune someday. (Certain Hockey and Baseball Cards, Pez candy dispensers, matchbox dinky toys etc....) We just used them and tossed everything too landfill when one had no further use for the stuff.   :biggrin:

Then you have to pay the offset. The costs between the value of said retention as far as collectables go, then the costs of larger residence and/or property for storage of such items. I don't have a 401k. I have 401 cc's, meaning classic cars. I enjoy them for a few years then sell them when the market has a demand and make a few coins. You have to watch the markets for everything these days.
