<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Carthago, post: 2407614, member: 76111&quot;]I mostly buy top quality coins for my interests and often have to compete against people who are much wealthier or heavily motivated buyers, likely both.&nbsp; But in the end, I&#039;m also a competive jerk who has deep seated mommy issues and has trouble accepting losing, so I often significantly overpay to make up for my behavioral deficiencies and get my way.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie79" alt=":rage:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The coins I&#039;ve sold, I&#039;ve&nbsp; lost money overall on but I hadn&#039;t had them long, usually prioritize buying the right coin (for me) rather than the right priced coin, and have made some mistakes.&nbsp; I&#039;ve done some poor sales too, being expedient rather than worried about the best return, but I don&#039;t give a damn at this point. It&#039;s a process and I&#039;m get better at it.&nbsp; It&#039;s also not been an unreasonable expense for such a wonderful hobby as opposed to&nbsp; golf where you have nothing to show it but skin cancer.&nbsp; And I still think someday 30 years from now I&#039;ll make money overall as well as a lifetime of enjoyment.&nbsp; I also look at my collection as an alternative store of value, even it imperfect.</p><p><br /></p><p>What a great hobby! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]496990[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
