I would suggest taking a second (third?) mortgage on your home, selling whatever scrap gold you or your wife may have laying about, taking a quick equity loan on your car, scouring your neighbors' recycling cans at 2 a.m. on trash day for cans and bottles, and then take all the funds and continue to buy cards

There isn't ever a set that can defeat you, you can only defeat yourself. If you want it, you'll get there. If you decide that fighting the monster isn't for you. there's only about 1000 other sets out there to look at. Its all good, whatever decision you make IMO. Find what you like and go for it. Best,
Kenny Cole

The Monster wants you to quit, I have over 400 different cards including most Slers and the O,Hara variation. Since I am a NY Rangers Hockey Fanatic and season ticket holder (6 seats) which is quite expensive as well as a partial NY Giants holder with my brother I have gotten into the habit of only looking for cards to finish my set in the off season. I just started looking last Sunday. CN

Funny
Very funny Cerberus.
But, I think I've already exhausted most of those suggestions......I have 454 of the 524 cards......70 more to go (actually 66 more to go....the big 4 will always elude me). Thanks for the laugh!!

I suggest looking at it as a very long term approach....you have actually came a long way already in a pretty short amount of time !! Don't be in too much of a rush with it, and just pick a card here and there- this will take longer, but it will be lighter on your bank account and it makes the anticipation of getting the card(s) that much more exciting (to me at least).
If you've just completely lost interest in the cards themselves, as someone else suggested, there are 1000's of other cool sets/cards to collect. Maybe you would enjoy type collecting? Good luck- IMO keep going, don't let it beat you Sincerely, Clayton
