Personal Safety

It looks like some of you folks on here have been watching too many Clint Eastwood movies lately! If somebody does break into your home, chances are it will probably be empty. Majority of thieves out there do not want any confrontations. In other words, they want to go in, take the stuff, and go out.

That's a problem right there. When you show off your collection to your friends, then they are going to go out there and tell others (and then those people will tell others). Do you want 200 people to know that you own a valuable collection? Best thing to do is never share it with anyone except for a few very close family members. I always show my cards to my mother.

It kind of sucks, but I hesitate sharing with many people for that reason. Don't want to be at a party someday and hear from some dude who heard from someone who heard that I possibly have x, y, and z. "Oh, your into cards. You know who else is....."
