I am first and foremost a collector, but have recently began thinking of cards as investments. So if you look at it that way, the price is just a number. I cannot afford the very best in the hobby, but I can get close.
EDIT: the transition to investor occurs when a collector buys his / her first $1,000 card. Prior to covid, it seemed ridiculous to buy cards over that threshold amount, but now I do it regularly.
