    That sounds like a pretty sweet job to me.

    I remember collecting cards as a kid and early teen, I'm 28 now, it was a blast. Every Saturday I would get my allowance and ride down to the card shop on my bike and spend all my money. The anticipation of what special card might be in that pack was great.

    To this day I still have about 10,000 cards, mostly baseball. At one point I had about 50,000 cards. About 7 years ago I was moving from one place to another and a family with a young son was moving in. I had all the cards seperated, commons and the ones worth something. I left the boxes with all the commons in a closet with a note letting them know their son was more than welcome to enjoy them.

    Just recently the last card shop in town closed it's doors. It really is a lost hobby. I plan on keeping the cards and passing them down to my sons.
