Thanks for the kind words! I appreciate it.
Sounds funny, but every time we drive down to Portland to watch a Warriors game, Lillard drops 50+ points and the Warriors lose. We think we’re bad luck.. lol. My wife did get Stephen Curry’s autograph (on the bill of a hat) one time we went (at the tunnel after his pre-game warm up).
I wife comes from a family that is big in investments, so she enjoys cards that have a really good chance at increasing it’s value (even though I rarely sell my cards). She once bought my 40th bday present when I was 38 years old because she didn’t want to buy the card at a higher price when I turn 40.. so she bought it 2 years earlier and held on to it until I turned 40. She was right, the price of the card almost doubled when I turned 40. It was a 1951 Bowman Mickey Mantle RC (PSA 1)
