Great info from Warren.

Another great quote is from Peter Lynch "The most important organ in investing is not the brain, it's the stomach." Don't get get caught in the emotions if you view baseball cards as investments.

I'll bet if someone asked Warren about the benefits of asset diversification, he might concede that a portion of savings in gold, silver, or collectibles might not be a bad idea.

He doesn't seem to be real excited about gold just yet. But maybe someday.

I'll be that guy and point out that nothing in the original post is even indirectly about card collecting, ie: acquiring items for personal enjoyment. It seems like the oracle of Omaha would not be a fan of sports card investing, which seems like a reasonable opinion.

Another reason to use a sniping service whenever possible. It keeps fervor-based bidding at bay. Place your logical max bid and don't keep monitoring the live bidding.
