<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 2357954, member: 26302&quot;]This hobby has always been older white male dominated. I went to a coin show in the 1970&#039;s and it was mainly old white males. What does this tell us? Since no one is born old, it says that naturally as people get older and look for a hobby some take up coin collecting. It has never been a case that you must have them start when they are 10 years old or that person will never collect coins. Most collectors are not like me who DID start young and continued to collect. Most collectors start in their 30&#039;s or 40&#039;s.</p><p><br /></p><p>For this reason I have never worried that our hobby is &quot;getting older&quot;. It has always been older, we simply recruit guys after they are settled down in life for the most part. Btw, I LOVE having women involved in the hobby. I thought that was a great statistic. I do hope that trend continues, as I believe input from members like [USER=56859]@TIF[/USER] adds tremendously to our hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
