Interesting question Leon. I am mainly a set collector and plan on passing the sets down to my children one day. The question for me is how to divide the sets and be fair to all. Even in passing my collection down to my children, I hate the thought of my collection being split.
In part, because of this, I've found myself purchasing more HOF material. ZWheat |

Timing and money will be the key factors here. Having a 5 year window to sell your cards gives you plenty of time to slowly unwind everything at a good price. Strongly oppose selling them all at the same time. Too much risk that you are selling at a softer sport in the market.
Handing them down to your kids must be bittersweet. Are they really capable of handling this influx of cards? Best bet is to sell it on your own, rather than handing it down (unless someone shows great appreciation for your collection). I've built a small collection and I'm only 22, so I still have many more years to even worry about it. I also keep my accounts cash friendly, that way I won't have to sell off cards in an unforseen emergency.
