In 2008, Paul became the Guinness World Record holder for having the largest private baseball card collection.

“I’ve tripled it since 2008,” said Paul, who is now 34 years old.

As of today, Paul's collection of cards is up to 3 million. Yes, million. Paul also has over 98,000 autographs, which were mostly personally obtained. Paul spent several years working in the clubhouses as a batboy for various minor league teams where he befriended many players and was a light and inspiration in the clubhouse.
