Here were my goals from last year:

1. Continue to sell off my modern collection and try real hard to stop buying that stuff - except for an occasional Pirate. Update: Kind of passed. Didn't sell too much, but more importantly, didn't buy too much either.

2. Double my T206 set to 150. Including getting an AB back and either a Wojo Hands at Chest or Matty White Cap. Update: Failed. Got to 125. I did get a few AB backs and a Matty Dark Cap instead.

3. Triple my E121 set to 30 including getting at least 5 HOFers. Update: Passed!

4. Add at least 10 new/different Pirate Pre-War Types. Update: Passed!

5. Spend just the right amount of money on cards so that my wife does not file for divorce. Update: Kind of passed. I spent way too much but I am still married.

6. Attend the National in Cleveland and meet some of you guys. Update: Failed. Maybe I'll make it to Chicago.

For 2015, I've already decided this will be the year of quality over quantity. I'm going to concentrate on acquiring a few "biggies" like T206 Wajo or Cobb, '33 Goudey Ruth or Gehrig, and any of the E121-80 toughies that rarely surface. I'm also going to attempt to talk my wife into allowing me to buy a Wagner (maybe an E90-2, M116, or Tip Top Bread), but that's a long shot!
