    Our own Mike Hayes used to say that 'it is a good storehouse of readily available funds'.

    The hobby that you can enjoy and then get, at least, most of your money back.

    Sometimes, it’s better to be LUCKY than good. 🍀 🍺👍

    Bought an old car once (a collectable) and found a $100 dollar bill in the paper work that was left in the trunk. It's too bad the $100 bill wasn't as old as the car. Does that count?

    You can make a small fortune out of a large one

    Collector, occasional seller

    I had not thought of it that way .... but certainly true....One may or may not realize an ROI or a loss...nonetheless... some money will likely come back. Cheers, RickO

    Well, for some people, stocks and real estate are hobbies. I guess it depends on how much time one puts into it and how much fun one has?
