When I was young I collected power rangers .
When I was 12 I spent thousands on Magic Cards
When I was 14 I spent thousands on Gundam
When I was 15 I sold my Magic cards and made abt 5k plus, if i minus the amount i spent buying it, i came out with abt 1000 - 1200 profit.

Now Im 20, with all my power ranger robots intact, my Gundams in a cup board and im still collecting them. Im not a person who buys Gundams just for the sake of buying though. I just buy those special ones that I like from the Gundam Series.

10 years from now, Ill buy a big cupboard in my hse and put it on display like how my mom displays her crystal collection. No doubt it will be worth quite a lot cause I meticulously spray my Gundams and lock them up in a air tight cupboard but if you ask me if i'd sell them, I would say no.

Its for personal pleasure, not to make money. 10 years, maybe 20 years, id still collect Gundams, if the interest is still there or if Gundam still exists. Maybe it will be a hobby for me and my kids something like how I play golf with my dad.
