<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1549795, member: 26302&quot;]I understand, but this only works to a point. If Bill Gates were a coin collector, why does he need another billion? There are only so many ferraris you can drive, and only one example of a unique coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>The bigger issue to me is how many of these items needed are now in trusts or museums. You say money can buy anything, try buying the Mona Lisa or similar from a museum at any price. Plus, many of these museums legally cannot sell even if they wanted to, since the donation bequest prohibits them from selling it. Its common proactice in museum bequests to state if the museum no longer wants an item, it goes back to the family. Therefor, the museum has a choice of keeping an item forever, or losing it forever with no compensation. Which would you choose?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
