Welcome back, Justin.
My tip: collect what you like, even if you hear people telling you to "🔥INVEST🔥" in this or that.

Welcome aboard.
The best advice for card collecting? Whatever you've decided to do at any given moment, stop and do the exact opposite. You'll end up a helluva lot happier.

Build yourself a spreadsheet of the cards you want, be succinct and know why you want every card on that list to be part of your collection. Be prepared to sacrifice other things for your collection. Buy only cards that speak to you and don't settle, you will regret it.
IMO, the cards are a byproduct of the relationships you will form with other members here.

Given price increases since you were last involved, look hard at lower grade cards as I believe they indicate the best value around. If you look primarily at the card rather than the grade, you will still find some jewels around.
