PRESENT: Personal Collections ...dare I say Analog Collections

*AJ*

* Comic Books (from Marvel to Garfield)
* Video Games
* #watchfam
* Outdoor stuffs

*Chris*

* Sports Cards
* Hardy Boys blue hardcover books, Choose Your Own Adventure paperbacks, Encyclopedia Brown paperbacks.
* LEGOs from garage sales
* Guitars from garage sales

* Rise of online market places, forums, and FOMO
* To combat this; COLLECT FOR YOU not for speculation, or FOMO, or Instagram

* CP - Have the courage to take time and have the internal conversation of why you are pursuing this collection


* Bee.com (http://bee.com/)


* CP - If you are collecting under the Investment mindset, are you prepared to do what it takes to sell your digital good?
* NFT and blockchain tech, speculation
* Is “hoddleing” just a digital “hoarder”
* Feeding into addiction, the casino mentality?

* Don’t be like Chris - Don’t acquire physical things with the intention of impressing people.
