When I collected Pokemon cards in kindergarten, it wasn’t just a hobby. It was a serious investment. It was a scientific fact that my cards were going to be worth a lot of money one day.

Fifteen years later, with Charizard hologram cards going for $60 on eBay, it would seem that that day had finally come.

I’m holding out. The market just isn’t where I want it to be and where I know it will be. I think it’s ridiculous to sell before I can get $100 for my Mew 2 hologram and $600 for my mint condition 100HP Clefable hologram. I don’t know what a 401k is, but it looks like I won’t need one.
