<p>[QUOTE=&quot;geekpryde, post: 4032365, member: 36248&quot;]I agree with a lot that have been listed.&nbsp;&nbsp; A few more come to mind or that I want to expand upon.</p><p><br /></p><p>(1) Burnout.&nbsp;&nbsp; Nuff said.</p><p><br /></p><p>(2) Also, learning too much.&nbsp;&nbsp; By that I mean, once you&#039;ve absorbed a few years worth of info and/or started working with a knowledgeable coin mentor like Doug [USER=112]@GDJMSP[/USER] , or your LCS, well you start seeing things you didn&#039;t see before, and maybe wish you didn&#039;t see now.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Rosy glasses sort off fall off once you go beyond a certain point in this hobby.&nbsp;&nbsp; There&#039;s something to be said for dumb and happy, LOL.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Not everyone would suffer this fate.&nbsp; But many people get to the point where a coin that would have made them ecstatic 5 years ago is like just another dull widget, or perhaps a coin you loved but with problems you didn&#039;t see, suddenly becomes hideous when you start seeing better with your expanded knowledge and skills.</p><p><br /></p><p>(3) Lack of money for the coins you really want.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; And if you did come into that money, the realization that you probably should put it to work in better ways than a coin hobby.&nbsp; Paying off house, paying off cars, actual investments, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also think points #2 and #3 feeds into point #1.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
