<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Juan Blanco, post: 1573002, member: 41665&quot;]Wow, blu62vette. I cannot personally relate to that compulsion or rationale but I believe you. I remember meeting lots of amateur investors in the late 1990s who had such devotions to this or that company, and it almost always ended in tears literally. Emotion &amp; value investing don&#039;t mix, obviously!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I should very much like to believe that, imrich. (That&#039;s why I&#039;m here, testing the thesis.) However, I&#039;ve seen no evidence to support such wishful thinking. I long ago abandoned &#039;faith-based investing&#039; in monetary instruments, so &quot;trust but verify, the numbers don&#039;t lie&quot; must apply here too.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The market for Boomer collectibles (including most US coins) has been declining and will continue to FALL in this deflationary cycle. Sorry, it ain&#039;t over yet.</p><p><br /></p><p>And I very much like your relationship thesis, so long as it caveats the predator&#039;s rook. Promises of &quot;mutual benefit&quot; from the wily schemer&#039;s mouth won&#039;t materialize, I&#039;m afraid. Everyone should sensibly Buy Low, Sell High ... or s/he&#039;ll come out a loser to someone else&#039;s profit, again and again.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
