The hobby is supposed to be fun. If true vintage brings you fun, great. If modern brings you fun, great. The hobby is flourishing - albeit with some bumps and bruises along the way. There might never have been more people involved as right now, great for the hobby. If you like to try and flip and it brings you fun, nice. If you want to collect and not sell, nice.
My roots was opening packs as a kid and collecting the then current players. Not much different than today - people opening packs and collecting the now current players. And vintage does seem to be holding up well in the price department for those of us collecting oldies but goodies, very nice. Sure beats prices tanking and everyone yelling the sky is falling, does it not. This is an awesome hobby. Of course I collect vintage and have very nice cards that would be tough to part with. I also collect modern raw of players I like - also fun and rewarding. I have even played the accumulate and submit to PSA game that has brought me many hours of enjoyment and fun. I have a few Pokemon cards collected with my kid - another avenue of enjoyment. So much to like and choose from in the hobby today.
