I'm assuming he bet on it being hit and cashed in.

More likely that he sold a bunch of Bonds cards.

The perceived or realized value has nothing to do with it. Her perspective is that the video game will get me more enjoyment because I can play it over and over and get repeat enjoyment out of it. The card I purchase arrives in the mail, I look at it, and put it on my shelf with the rest of my cards and basically do nothing with it after that. So she doesn't see a point in wasting money on a piece of cardboard that's going to sit on a shelf collecting dust and would much rather I spend money on a video game I'm going to get continued and prolonged usage out of.
I think Einstein summed it up best-- even though he was referring to chess-- when he said: "Too demanding for a hobby, too trivial for a profession." This is what my most recent "significant other" was most definitely thinking.
Spend all your money on video games, by all means!
You really should buy a couple of folding chairs for the store

My wife doesn't care about my collecting.
I don't buy many cards anymore; instead, I have shifted about 95% of my collecting focus to my book collection. I spend maybe $50 on them a month and that is it. I don't buy new clothes more than once a year, don't drink or smoke, don't want any electronica of any kind. She knows that she has got it good with me!
Are you Amish?
I do think it can eat up a large amount of time and be demanding. But what's good about baseball cards or any sport is you can shut it down for a while if need be. Especially you player collectors. With ebay, there is always somebody selling their collection and always a new card to buy no matter how long of a break you take.
Also, I decided to only do things with my cards(organizing and sorting or just looking) once a week only.
Dang that's harsh. I couldn't go a day without looking at everyone of my Susac autos
I honestly don't have time for it. There are so many other things going on. But it makes it more enjoyable when I do have the time to do it.
Parents aren't a "significant other," which is the topic of this thread, unless you have some kind of weird backwoods incestual relationship with them.Not sure if I replied to this one, but my parents dont mind that I get cards from the store, as long as its with my own money, or with a gift card. but they HATE that I trade/buy online...Howveer, once I get my own place this spring it wont really be a problem

And why did you bump a four-month old thread to tell us that anyway?
