[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 94467, member: 4552"]There are lots of ways to stop anything. Like aleady posted, loose a job, have a family to feed, coins just can't be a priority when food is required. One friend of mine has been out of work for almost a year. Many others I know have been out of work more than have been working. Coins become last thoughts. Another way is to try selling your coins and the dissapointment at the monitary loss may make you stop. If you live in an area where the weather stays kind of nice, get an old car and try rebuilding it. Gets your mind off coins. We have about 10 inches of snow on the ground so it's time to play with coins. Find out no family member wants them in case something happens to you so may as well just stop now and get rid of everything. I met a dealer the other day that said that's why he is now selling everything. He is in his 70's. Notice that unless you have lots of money you'll never complete many collections. Example try completing a Liberty Head Nickel albaum. I've been coin collecting for well over 50 years and even when I was out of work I still went to coin shows even just to pretend.[/QUOTE]
