				 Looking for ideas 
 
			
			Hey guys, wanted to cast a net out to the vintage intelligentsia here.  I have developed a crazy notion over the last week that I should buy a Mike Trout 2009 Bowman Chrome autographed rookie card, as it appears he's going to end up as one of the greatest of all time, on his current trajectory.  Then I think of others like A-Rod, Clemens, Mattingly, etc - others that derailed for one reason or another.  I have the urge to make this my one big purchase for 2017 but feel like that money could be better spent on vintage.  I am looking for some cards I am not thinking about that I can spend the same amount on (roughly $2K)....Could I get a nice Babe Ruth '33 Goudey for that price, any iconic cards of Gehrig, Hornsby, etc?  If you have a minute - what card or cards might that $2K go to instead?  Not just pre-war but post-war.  Need some level headed guidance because I think $2K is way too much to spend on a card from 2009, but it's Trout.  He's unbelievable.
 thanks!
 Carl
