<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ed Zak, post: 42125, member: 824&quot;]I am 44...born a radical liberal coin collector that wanted everything from &quot;Save the Owls&quot; on coins to &quot;Give Peace a Chance&quot;.&nbsp; Started collecting coins at age 10.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then I grew up, got a job, started paying taxes, and started to ask where does all my tax money go?&nbsp; Then I got educated in the real world (AFTER college) and now am a &quot;reborn&quot; conservative collector.&nbsp; I just shank my head as I look back on my high school days into college when I thought I knew everything.&nbsp; How my father put up with me I will never know!?!</p><p><br /></p><p>As Winston Churchill stated so perfectly, &quot;If you are not a liberal by the age of 20, you have no heart...if you are not a conservative by the age of 40, you have no brain.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Looking back...he is SOOOOO right!&nbsp; You young collectors out there, remember...we have been doing this alot longer than you and we all started out like you.&nbsp; Just wait in 20 years when some hot shot starts calling you old.&nbsp; At least you have the benefit of this forum.&nbsp; Us old guys had to read and learn from the school of hard knocks.</p><p><br /></p><p>But wait a minute!...I am only 44 and I still can whip most of your butts.&nbsp; At 6&#039;5&quot; and 255, I have battled ugly offensive/defensive lineman all the way from Pop Warner to college.&nbsp; 44!?!&nbsp; I am just starting to live and now I can afford many of those coins that I could only dream about when I was a ten-year-old paperboy-collecting-kid.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>And for Morgan Fred</b>...I feel for you.&nbsp; After reading how ex-wifes go after coin sets for the sole purpose of liquidation ($$$$$) with no regard to how you acquired the coin(s).&nbsp; I still am amazed that most ex-wifes are still living. </p><p><br /></p><p>Got to go...I feel a mid life crisis coming on![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
