    Here are mine ...

    1. when the mailman comes with packages, you have no idea what's inside

    2. packages of coins lay unopened on your countertop for days

    3. you write things in your coin log like "Why did I buy this?"

    LOL. Anyone else have a buying sickness?

    You have to rent more than one box at the bank to hold them all.

    1. When you hear beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, and its Brinks backing into the driveway.

    2. When you give someone change for a dollar.

    3. When you walk by a cent laying on the ground.

    4. When you leave a cent in the penny jar at the stop and rob.

    1. Your bank calls and asks if they can borrow some coin wrappers because they have run out.

    2. Your pants keep falling down.

    3. You can't find your keys in your pocket.

    When you have more money under your microscope than in your bank account.

    When you have not looked at most of your coins in 20 years.

    When the government asks you to personally release some back into circulation. You comply by doing so with your most resent purchases. Later on, you get the same request from the BEP. Then they find the tunnel from your house to the Fort Knox facility and ask for their gold back. :>)

    Your safe, that used to be on the first floor, is now in the basement. and you had to buy a table to cover the hole.

    I need I good one, all the others tell me to buy stock or collect only 5% of my investments in bullion. What a strange suggestion that is. Next they will tell me not to collect coinage as a sound investment. They have never read the coin owner's creed to ownership. "Ignore sound judgement" like I did. :>) Believe me, I own a lot of second place coins.
