step 2. max that shit

step 3. as long as your cards are appreciating greater than 25% it’s literally free money

I’m not really sure if that’s a joke or if it is serious. In case that it is serious, I feel the need to disagree with it. I think going in debt with Pokémon cards is one of the most dangerous things you can do in the hobby.

But that’s just my opinion :blush:

Ya this is horrible advise! And i hope people that do this type of strategy experience a down year or two. Sell those cards at a loss and see if credit card debt is still the way to go. If it happens me and many others will be ready to buy. :thinking:

I still can’t say if you’re joking or not. I feel so Sheldon Cooper right now hahaha

Anyway, everyone’s free to do whatever they like as you don’t hurt anyone. But I just think that’s a dangerous piece of advice

Yeah, that’s true, but you don’t know when you might need money for a health emergency or something like that. Debt is such a great way to get into serious financial problems.

If you have savings for that WOTC box… OK… But going in debt for that? Not for me

I loved it since I saw it originally being posted, but your signature always keeps reminding me. So my comment was a team effort of both of us + our supreme investment daddy @peacock :stuck_out_tongue:
For real though, that’s easily one of the top 10 e4 quotes ever haha
