Listeners wanted more!  Episode 3 of CardBoard Chat gave a PSA on How to Start Collecting Sports Cards but we went deeper this week on helping you identify if you want to be a Collector or Investor.  And maybe it's both.  If you’re new to CardBoard Chat welcome to the party but catch-up on Episode 1, 2, and 3 because there's a ton to chew on.  If you’re a veteran of these parts we know you love listening for multiple reasons.  We all love having skin in the game and getting our money in good.  This is no different from betting futures, an individual game, playing the stock market, investing in real estate or leveraging your collectable assets.

Jesse and Payne start CardBoard Chat Episode 4 discussing ways to get involved in the space and identifying who you want to be in it.  Boiling it down, it's very black and white so while one might have a preference to collect, someone else might want to invest.  Know the difference and become familiar with both because your thought process will change from time to time.  Outside of this, the fellas also chat about the grading component.  While it's not an exact science, there is a method to the madness and it does require research.

The core four topics remain as Jesse and Payne dive into the most iconic players and brands in sports by delivering quality information for those both active and new to the sports card industry.  It’s never too soon to start collecting sports cards and relive your childhood hobby.
