Im good with that.
Other ways to make money, right now it’s a fools game in my opinion if you’re not fully dedicated. I don’t have the energy right now.
IN baseball alot of the cards of young stars are still relatively speaking within striking range....
Yea, I guess it suppose on your budget.
I personally think the value is silly of some of them but thats not gonna disuade me from trying to obtain them if i know theyre a commodity in the collector sphere...Sometimes you gotta think about the end game and keep ur feelings out of it.
It would put that individuals card values in peril but not the entire hobby...
I think it would make the casuals think twice and relax a lot of things with a halo effect. Many new people in the hobby are very narrow visioned rn.
I agree but the pandemic did nothing to slow down the hobby so i dont think 1 players injury would...
Yea, and in respect to them pandemic It’ll be interesting to see how things go with cards when things are back to “normal”
Theres tons of money to make in the hobby even on a remedial budget if you know what ur doing.Im not a high end collector at all and ive made some decent coin the last 2 years in selling sealed boxes and singles.
I’m sure at some point there will be some sort of regression to the mean. Or the exponential growth will start to plateau. Something of that nature.
But I don’t think the star players will necessarily tank when/if that occurs.
It will moreso mean that Tyler Herro prizms won’t be going for 500+ and Sekou Doumbouya won’t be coveted by his niche market as has been the case during this bull run
Jordan Brady Kobe Bron Trout will still remain highly coveted, highly collected, and highly valuable. And the Giannis and Luka and Zions of the hobby will continue to be valuable. Maybe not 4.6mil for a NT Logoman valuable, but still very lucrative

It's a new avenue for gambling and become the de facto stock market for athletes. Like @Codeine Bryant the big dogs will always command money. If there's a correction, it'll be the regular guys like Herro, Sekou, every baseball prospect hitting .350 in the minors, etc. that will come back to earth.
Injuries are always a concern with young players but an entire generation is not tearing their Achilles. The vast majority are making it through in tact.

How much more room can zion cards grow? Obviously his cards are overvalued but he will never be an MVP imo even if he's great every year, but like you said with luka, the prices are as if he's had Curry's accomplishments already. Giannis is one ring with the bucks from being a legend with his style and theres always the possibility of a forced trade.
