I have a lot into my Mantle collection. But they aren't just investments I enjoy owning them.

I'm sure there are a few people with a financial background (besides me) on net54. I could in theory give out some excellent advice and I am on the board.

I would think you're talking about the highest of high end 52T311's beating the Dow rate of return. I believe that could be true in terms of price but we're talking a baseball card market with far less liquidity and questionable public information; true of stocks too and to what extent depends on your beliefs - not going there). When you own a 7, 8, or 9, though, I imagine you'd be selling to finite amount of buyers. Could be good or bad for a market, in many ways, as I am sure we all know...

And let's face it - it's a nice problem to have. Good luck whatever you decide.

Buy some Amazon if you can. I had a school project to see short term stock investments, Amazon has gone up almost 65 points in the past month (more than 5%).

But yeah, definitely stock.

ETF or index fund.
