<p>[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 7917795, member: 25270"]This is similar to how I do things now. I'm not into that Marie Kondo stuff about getting rid of all your possessions if they don't bring you joy, but I do often think of it like, do I enjoy this coin or am I just buying it to fill a hole? Why spend time and money on it if I don't really want it. It is fulfilling to complete a set but most of them just aren't really manageable, at least not within reason. I'm holding on to the complete sets that I have but I'm unlikely to start any more. Instead I focus on getting new things that are different and interesting. There's a lot of coins out there that kind of stand out as special and I'd like more of those. Like something from German New Guinea or things like that which you don't see every day. </p><p><br /></p><p>This thread is something I originally started years ago, and once in awhile it somehow gets dragged up again. As you can see I'm still collecting, but differently.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
