I collected in my childhood, as most of my buddies did, and I am currently collecting to try and finish off the partial set my father gave to me (52 Topps) which I find enjoyable, although somewhat expensive.

My son has a bit of interest in what I do but being as he is only 19, as expected, hasn't got much.

I've thought about selling some of my other collection but then I ask myself, am I going to regret that?

Like you, I also have other interests so I am not as vested in it as some on here are but I do enjoy it in my spare time and when money dictates.

In the end, I will likely pass my collection onto my son like my father did for me, but with life changes happening all the time, plans change.
