<p>[QUOTE="TheNoost, post: 422295, member: 14473"]Hi, I'm TheNoost and I'm addicted to CT. At first it was just checking once or twice a week, but then it got worse. I became a member. Now I'm on alot/all the time. I didn't even realize I was so far involved and how quickly it happened. LOL</p><p>Well, I have gained knowledge. From none at all to a little in the last 6 months. Example: I used to think that because silver three cents were supposed to be hard to get I would buy all of them that I could. Holed, bent, culls, etc. Now I understand that they are hard to get without problems and I look for those instead. I have become a roll searcher and that has helped me with grading and learning how to tell the difference between machine doubled and doubled dies. Got into world coins a little. Learned about how coins are made and some coin and mint history as well. Also learning more about our economy and bullion vs oil vs the dollar. All of this seems fine and good except that my standards for quality now surpass my income. I have realized that I need to become more focused and set goals or none of my sets will ever be completed. I have more value in books than in coins (not spent more on books, just got them for really cheap). THe more you know the more you can grow.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
