for the past few months i've taken a big interest in collectors/collecting
i mostly like to look up collectors on youtube i just watched a video where a teenager sold a trading card to some collector or 'fan' for over $100,000... we're not talking about a babe ruth card from the 30s or whenever he played.. we are talking about a 5-yr old card that was mass produced the newscaster guy was wondering why someone bought the card for that much since its only worth the value you place on it he said its "irrational exuberance" wow.. what a perfect way to put it instead of like wanting to complete an obstacle in life, instead you'd rather complete a collection of something.. and doing so makes you feel a sense of accomplishment i guess you got a pro-bowler's old pair of bowling shoes from 1989 and you think it was a 'steal' at $5,000.. but your wife or girlfriend thinks you're an idiot lol collecting is madd like.. interesting.. some of the psychology behind it is worth a look imo the economic side of it is fascinating as well
