I find that most people in my life have at least one “thing” they are collecting. It is often an insight into their personality and it is fun to hear people talk about something they are passionate about.

    I don’t understand “collecting”

    Don’t get me wrong, there are a few categories of things I have a lot of, like film cameras, but that’s because I started with cheaper ones, and kept getting better ones as I became more sure that film photography was a thing I wanted to do.

    But, for instance, I have friends who collect MLB bobbleheads just for the sake of collecting, and I’ll never understand that.

      An ex had a collection of anime figures that cost him around 15,000 usd in total. Actual worth?
