[QUOTE="jared007, post: 474801, member: 6513"] To call it *investing* implies that you are eventually going to realize any profit and cash in at some stage. That's certainly not me, I'd find it too hard to part with any of the items I've spent so long chasing. As for an investment, it's probably the riskiest thing you could ever sink money into! For any serious return in the ballpark of what shares etc give, then you really need to be playing with really high end pieces. But there in lies the issue - your circle of clients become *really small*, and what you hold can suddenly become worth *much less* depending on flavour of the month. Plus, this stuff is fragile - crack an MOC in transit and you can't burn money faster! [/QUOTE]
