<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 3720458, member: 76194&quot;]Yep, that&#039;s about how it goes. When I was 12 I got into coins. By 17 I abandoned the hobby because I was more focused into getting into college....and girls, girls, girls. But what hormonal 17 year old isn&#039;t interested in the later? Anyway, I didn&#039;t get back into coins until age 22 when I graduated from undergrad, then abandoned it again at 24 when I started grad school, and didn&#039;t pick it up again until age 29 when I had some time and a little bit of discretionary income. The point is that it is hard to do a hobby when you have classes, exams, and are too busy trying to get a second date or third date from some girl you are head over heels for. When one is older, that&#039;s when a hobby starts to become a more serious pursuit.</p><p><br /></p><p>Take another hobby as an example: How many 12 - 25 year olds do you see at auction buying a 1960&#039;s Mustang to fix and tinker with in their garage? Practically none, but there sure are plenty of&nbsp; 30-something to 40-something year olds looking for their first classic car to&nbsp; do just that. And the hobby is alive and well despite the average age of newbies being closer to 40 years old, and the average participant being probably in their mid to late 50&#039;s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
