    I think the only thing contrarian about your fund, is you calling it contrarian Chucky!

    Opti, I didn't give it much thought. You think I should change it to "Alternative Assets" Fun?

    Depends on your outlook. Contrarian, in the sense that I'm seeking out other assets. Not sure everyone thinks that way.

    Bled $$ on the sports picks. Bad decision.

    Will they guarantee your coins?

    I’ve thought about it.

    The word "guarantee" in the crypto world is very dubious. I don't want to say that it's risk-free.

    I like the concept of earning interest on crypto. Putting a portion of my holdings there. If they disappear tomorrow, it's on me.

    I started asking questions to gerneate some discussion and just outright got ignored.

    Started thinking maybe this is a KVB troll thread after all.

    Brutal.

    No, Pab. I love to hold packs as an investment.

    I'm pretty optimistic about these going up. The 1992 Formula One is Michael Schumacher rookie year, btw.

    I picked up some ADA about a month ago, and then some more a couple weeks ago.
    Many are very high on it and think it has huge upside.
    There are skeptics of the project and think it is overvalued.
    We will have to wait and see.
    Have a great weekend.

    Bought: 1978 Topps 115 Mike Bossy RC - psa 9. Cost $420.

    ...The year b4 Gretky came into the league. Scored a ton of goals. A little under the radar (IMHO), showing good upward price trend.

    Any '70s card is now > 40 years old. Topps' quality control was not very good back then. Just so hard to find these cards in hi-grade.

    Bought: 1989 Pro Set FB Series 2 box. Cost = $60.

    ...Ton of HOF RCs in this box. Cards not as nice as the Score counterparts. But a nice affordable option. Recent prices have dipped, feel like I'm getting in at a good entry point.

    Bought: 1981 Topps 479 Raines RC - Beck 9. Cost = $25.

    ...Feel like I got a really good deal. Sometimes, the non-PSA slabs can be priced too low.

    I call Raines a poor-man's Rickey Henderson. Leadoff hitters getting more respect, Rickey/Raines card prices rising.

    Bought: Mika Hakkinen 1992 Grid Formula 1 F1 Rookie RC - PSA 10. Cost = $124.

    ...Admittedly, taking a flyer on this one. From the same set as Michael Schumacher. Hakkinen isn't Michael, but he was a 2x F1 series champ. And there aren't many F1 cards out there.

    Mini-dip in the mkt prices, vs Feb highs. Current buys often 40% off the February highs.

    Right now, this is looking like a burial. Not much dry powder left.

    I'm the wrong guy tail, pal. Just figured that has to be a +EV price.

    Denver players at least quoted as saying that they don't want to get swept. Good Luck to us!

    It's a Contrarian Fund trigger at the +3.5 Chucky.

    It's a grind but we ply a long term edge that also tracks the market. The problem is that the contrarain market has been depressed for a while now, the solution is that it's the playoffs.

    Let's see where it flies.

    The last month has been very streaky for me Chucky.
    In that time, I have won 9 straight, lost 7 straight, won 7 in a row, lost 8 etc.
    Luckily I am only down a little and had some fun doing it.
    Would be nice to make a run here.
