In this episode, Chris and Danny sit down with Shawn Surmick, founder of Reserved Investments, for an insightful deep dive into the world of collectible investing. From vintage toys, graded video games, and LEGO sets to rare coins and fine art, Shawn breaks down the unique challenges and opportunities in this highly speculative market.
You'll learn how valuation in collectibles differs dramatically from traditional assets, the difference between a collectible and an antique, and what factors might make an item "investment-grade." Shawn also shares his perspective on the mindset differences between collectors and investors, strategies for passing collectibles on to heirs, and how much of your net worth (if any) should be tied up in these highly speculative alternative assets.
Whether you're a seasoned collector, a curious investor, or just intrigued by the world of high-value nostalgia, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
