I'd recommend finding something "cheap" to collect when your funds are dry or when cards from your wantlist are not readily available.

For example, my primary focus is pittsburgh pre-war types. However, one of my side projects is where I collect the "Topps All-Star Rookie" cards from 1960-present. You know, the ones with the little trophy icon on them. While some can be expensive, I can pick most of them up for a couple bucks.
