On High Finance

I totally kept a few 1st Editions.
Gotta plan for my retirement, right?

It makes me sad that it's fiscally less responsible of me to go to work for the day than to drive to the mall and sell someone a binder full of early Pokémon cards.

I'd describe this feeling as being akin to flipping a house you've put a decade of work into. Yeah, you're taking a huge financial loss, but it's been so long that you'd thought all that money wasted in the first place.

Or selling any type of collectible, I guess. Anyway, the moral of the week is "thank god for nostalgic nerds."
