RE: Perspective: How Turning Hobbies into "Investments" Often Destroys Them!

in Silver Bloggers3 years ago

Thanks for the article. A recent survey in the UK found that stamp collecting is the still in the top 10 of hobbies world wide. That's encouraging, even if many have moved to collecting coins or NFT's!

As you say, there is a lot of 'rubbish' out there. It's always a bit disheartening when you see traders recycling stamps which are worthless because they are so common and/or in poor condition. I sometimes wish they would be brave enough to bin them.

For sure though, for the serious collector there are still many interesting items out there to find and purchase. Postal history is one area and good items seem to hold and even accrue value.
