As I've stated, if there were no modern collectors today our hobby would go the way of Stamp collecting - dead and buried.
Also, I wonder how many collectors that state they wouldn't buy any modern-day cards are secretly looking for a Cal Raleigh right now. How many that hate modern collecting have never sought out a rookie Ohtani, Trout, Judge, Skenes, Skubal, etc.
I think I enjoy reading more about how someone would spend their 13M rather than reading about someone telling someone else they've never met how they should spend theirs.
Net54 has pretty savvy collectors and intelligent members. The collective knowledge base is impressive. I am glad I joined and enjoy reading the daily posts, just like reading the daily paper and getting caught up with the news.
The nice thing about reading threads that you don't agree with, or upset you, is one can always simply not read the thread.
This one reminds me of "The Days or Our Lives" tv show. I'll continue reading it daily until it spirals too far down the rabbit hole.
