[QUOTE="baseball21, post: 3332027, member: 76863"]This mentality from the old days is one of the problems with the hobby. The easier it is for newcomers the bigger the hobby grows. If you enjoy having to wait months on end reading books before buying something, more power to you but most people aren't like that. This idea that there should be some sort of tuition paid or lumps to take for being new in the hobby from people that just want to find coins they like to buy is a long held outdated approach. So many people are always over blowing how the hobby is dying and this and that, the one thing that actually could kill the hobby is by making it difficult for newcomers to get their feet on solid footing. You don't have to disclose how you figured out how to make money in the hobby or anything like that, but it without question should be easy for someone to go out and make their first purchases as they are learning.[/QUOTE]
