Hanson hasnt reached his ceiling. Morton will be called up- they wont rush Hanson. 4-5 more dominant starts in the minors, and his stuff will just get hotter in anticipation for a summer callup as he climbs the BA hot sheet. Hes improved at every level hes gotten to- no reason to think he wont do it in the majors...

That wasn't the point... The point was that there are a lot of better investments of even Hanson than this card; not that this card WILL not absolutely 100% go up.

Regardless, I think this discussion is done as Jay's Cards thinks it is a pointless conversation, though ROI vs. ROIC is apparently not.

Dont be a dick. Who says there are better investments? If you actually knew anything about business, you would realize that an investment is a COMPLETELY subjective personal decision. Risk, time value of money, expected return, current economic conditions, and a variety of other external factors are necessary when determining how YOU want to invest your money. Just like in the stock market, if you want to earn a higher potential return, you have to assume more risk. The fact that the Hanson will more than likely not LOSE any value over time with a small-medium growth potential makes it a solid investment. Another investing alternative is obviously to buy a bunch of lower end, lower level prospects and HOPE they pan out. Obviously the initial investment is lower, but factoring the risk of the prospect not panning out, the length of time you have to hold the card to realize a profit and the opportunity cost of any associated interest that could have been accumulated over that time, unpredictable future market conditions, etc. this investment may not be justifiable to the OP.

Though I agree that I could have left my personal opinion out of this, I didn't. But that is what it is exactly: an opinion, right? I was saying how I thought there were a lot of better investments. Don't people do that ALL the time here? It's nothing different. I didn't call him any names or anything of that sort. If that's your definition of "being a dick," so be it.

I also appreciate you calling me out and saying that I know absolutely nothing about business. I tend to disagree on this matter, but you must be right. Your sig is king and no one can beat it.

I would resort to bringing up completely unrelated things that were not mentioned if someone just made me look like an idiot as well...

Hehe, I love business discussions. Capital turns is a more commonly seen term for what you are terming ROI. I will let the small difference between them slip as, in practice, the ROIC/ROI and ROI/Capital turns are commonly substituted for each other. Regardless, my original post was not directed at you whatsoever. I was merely venting on what I have seen recurring lately in different threads.

People on here can't handle when to use sale/sell, the past tense of bid (here's a clue... it's still BID), and where Curt SCHILLING is somehow out there bidding cards up, with no intention of buying them... And your expecting them to handle ROI/ROIC? :lol:

"Regardless, I think this discussion is done as Jay's Cards thinks it is a pointless conversation, though ROI vs. ROIC is apparently not."

I was just merely pointing out that you were being hypocritical. No need to flip out at me, while calling me out and assuming things that clearly weren't true.

Anyways, whatever.. I'm done. No need for me to get angry on unwarranted attacks towards me.

Possibly the worst buy for 350 bucks Ive seen in awhile. That card has nowhere to go but down. You'll be lucky if a dream scenario happens and there is a small window for profit.

maybe it's just me, but is there anyway to justify spending that much money right now on a piece of cardboard?
