[HenryZ]

I never thought I would hear myself say this, but I am the 1%.

Haha! That was a joke just waiting to happen :hfive:

So what do you think will be the next big thing in about 15 years?

this is actually a really good question ive given alot of thought to. what will be worth 80 bucks in 15 years that we toss now? makes me wanna put a bunch of stuff away just to see.

How would you spend your life saving if you decided to invest in discs?
What are the sure bets to increase or at least maintain their value.

Keep in mind that there are not an unlimited number of specific molds.

My life's savings??

*digs under couch cushions, checks lint trap in drier*

What can I get for....$3.52

There may likely be several big things in the next 15 years. That doesn't mean that any of us can go into a store buy up 20 of them, stash them away in our closets and expect to turn a tidy profit on them 10-20 years later. At least not a profit that would match putting that money in say, the stock market. A lot of people back in the late 80's and early 90's had this mentality with baseball cards, and look what happened.

If anything, with all the new companies and all the new discs coming out anymore, I doubt any of them are going to hold our attention long enough for them to make them as collectible as discs from the past.

I only invest in things that I understand.

Have you heard the advice to buy land, because they're not making it anymore?
Innova is going back and making some of the old molds in newer plastics, but they are not making anymore CE plastic.
I'd invest in things they can't make anymore, like CE plastic, protostars, and old collector discs (pre-90's).
If I had anymore money left over, I'd buy land.
Just Sayin'

^ land is overrated

I'd turn my 4.5 acres into a nine holer with original hazards. (land mines) Then invite every person I know who litters and doesn't pick up after their dog to play a round. After that I would probably invest in Lat64.

I like the stack of CE and a nice course idea...
