By the way, I love that you named your kid Beckett. Will your next child be named Canseco? ...Hopefully not “PSA”!
Thanks! I actually wrote a book that talks about how I did it - Confessions of a Baseball Card Addict. But here is the rundown: I hit the supercollectors, then the resellers, then the public. That is a way, way, way dumb downed version, but that's how it happened.

If we have another kid ... definitely have to go with Tuff Stuff!

Nice thread. You put so much hard work into it!
There is no way Canseco cards alone could fund a purchase this big. Did you own some of his jewellery pieces as well? Gold Rolex? Diamonds?

In the middle of this trainwreck, what a pleasure it was to take a break and read something written so enthusiastically, with such love for the hobby just pouring out of the words. What a great reminder of what an amazing hobby most of us are fortunate enough to enjoy.

Also very touching to read about your father and your son; condolences over the former and congrats for the latter.

Thank you so much for sharing. What a breath of fresh air.

-Al
