I saw this topic across the street and thought I would ask it here.
For me, I will continue working on my Base Tom Brady rookie collection. I am up to 30 of 44 currently. I would like to add at least 8-10 more this coming year to put me within spitting distance of completing it. Thankfully I already have the key cards, I have quite a few pacific left. I think the most expensive one left for me is Donruss #230.
What about you guys?

Learning how to grade vintage again.
Try not to spend so much money.
Trim the fat. Then get more.
Enjoy the go.
wow, 13 more to go! sounds like you will complete that 86 fleer set this coming year!

Continue working on my 1961 baseball graded auto set and continue buying any nice-looking graded vintage I can afford.
Continuing to work on the Football Hall of Fame Set. My goal for 2024 was 70% and top 20, it was just accomplished spending NO new money. The set is feeding itself. My goal for 2025 is adding another 10%.
Consolidation.
I’m driving towards 100 key cards, nicest shape I can afford. So instead of having 3 Lemieux rookies in grades 7-8, sell all three and find a 9, or an 8 that looks like a 9.
Ultimately I’d love a high end hockey collection that fits on a single shelf.
Will require quite a bit of selling, and moving on from a ton of 20-100 dollar cards. But should be much more satisfying to flip through a single box of beauty cards vs the multiple trunks and boxes I am rocking today.
@80sOPC I have been on the same journey. while I will end up with FAR more than 100 cards, I should have many fewer than 100k cards when I am done!

Ha, ya 100 cards is pretty ambitious. I will keep my set runs so probably 100
Cards + 10 key OPC sets + some wax.
Keep looking for a nice 1948 Leaf Jackie Robinson RC...
