Good points. the collectibles field has so much intrinsic value that a savings account or stock does not have. All fields have risk but what a ride!
I've never bought items that I think will increase in value. I buy what I like and over the years this has done quite well as a solid "investment" if you will.
Stocks are a roller coaster. Savings account is like a dull book. Collectibles are "life" changing entities!
Love it!

P.S. Unless you bought AAPL when it was $2 or so!!!!! UGH!!!!!!!!
