A few years ago, I was visiting New Orleans for a family function and staying at a Canal Street hotel. Lo and behold, there is an international cyberporn convention in town and many of the attendees were staying at the same hotel. I actually got to talking with one of the stars, a middle age guy (who could easily pass for a coin dealer at a local show) who got into the business to fill the role of the middle-aged characters in the movies. Having met him (and others) while they were there for the convention, I feel confident that you, Cam, have what it takes. You might have to change your name to something like Slam Kiefer.

Then I'm considering an investment in defense stocks.

She 'll be a kick a$$ Secretary of State.
It would be extremely difficult to go into another field and gain the experience that I have had through numismatics.
I consider this to be a great hobby and I am continually excited to be able to earn a living doing something that I love.
How many others can say that?
I firmly believe in numismatics as the world's greatest hobby, but recognize that this is a luxury and without collectors, we can all spend/melt our collections/inventories.
