But my dad says that all this card stuff is a waste of time and it is banned in my house. So I am going to have to unload all of my cards profit/loss it doesn't matter. Well I guess I am out.

bad argument. what if your hobby was smoking weed? should he have a say in that? i understand this isn't bad like weed, but regardless, it's his father who is most likely supporting him and thus he can decide what is allowed and what isn't

Because it's his father.

To the OP, are your grades dwindling because of all the time you spend online/prospecting???

I was going to comment, but keeping my mouth shut!

All I am going to say is DUH!

Does your dad like sports?
A few cards wouldn't be hard to hide.

As a replacement he said I have to try making ipod touch apps or spend all my time working out. No my grades are straight A's. He only likes me playing sports.

Look at the bright side... at least you'll have more money for underage drinking and partying.

GiantsSuperCollector · Mar 19, 2009

Lol, he isn't letting me keep any of the money I don't send, so I am pretty pissed off!!

Make a bunch of card collecting apps for the IPOD.

Interesting.

Does he still allow you to play video games?

If so, talk about goofy priorities.

Sounds like your dad is a *********.

I work out a lot, play basketball and do track and field. I hang with friends and party and look how many posts I have on FCB. I also have pretty good grades and hopefully going to college in 2010. I think its something unique that not many people do now adays (I know a lot people online do it, but how many friends of yours are REALLY into cards). If anything it can be something you write about for college. But it is your dad's decision and I hope for the best.

Keep your best 10 cards under your bed/

It could be the lack of challenging courses. At least, it seems like that by your posts.

That might be one of the smartest parents I know. Do you realize that if you create a semi-useful app for the iPhone/iPod touch and sell it for $.99, you could make a killing in the first few weeks it's released. Multiply that by a few apps and you could put yourself through college with that money. Do a search for reports on this and see for yourself what I mean.

Sorry to hear though about sports cards.
