>but no boomers in this market
We hit that one weird. My kids were into Pokemon and Yugioh from the very beginning so I've got boxes full of old cards I've never checked the value on. My youngest son has a few thousand dollars in cards.

My kids never got into Magic, but I was pretty interested because my gen played a lot of D&D. I didn't have anyone to play with though so I never bought the cards. It sucks people grow up and stop playing games, but that's what I've seen. Vidya is popular with old people, but card and tabletop games not so much.

>What holds value 100 years down the road is anyone's guess
It's actually a pretty simple formula so far

anything related to vice
liquor
drugs
sex
violence
gambling
greed

and it's usually stuff that advertises these things that hold value across time. Whiskey bottles and old guns and playing cards and brothel tokens and horror movie posters and druggist bottles and saloon advertising and precious metals and old money and ads for prostitutes and such like stuff.

some things are timeless. We find them fascinating no matter how old or new they are, and lots of people decorate their lives with the artifacts of these ancient sins.

cards, comics, sports stuff, those are cool and a lot of them have high values. Most don't. And eventually they'll all be worthless. Because none of them has the sin factor that collectors will always love.

yep, whiskey, beer, cards, and mostly women.

I collect stuff related to victorian mining and vice.

>i also have a collection of boardgames and other cool shit that is literally not replaceable.
same, I have stuff that is literally unique

photograph it, insure it, and don't worry.
Kids are a different story. No amount of money will replace a kid. All parents worry about that shit.
