When it comes to the signature of an athlete, celebrity or president, you’d be surprised how insane people will go for it, and how much they’ll throw down at an auction to own that rare item.
I mean, don’t get me wrong, all of these things are historically significant, but there are some staggering amounts of money that are being placed on the table, for things that don’t do anything.. If I’m gonna spend a million bucks, I want it to do something (go fast, get me season tickets courtside, etc..), not sit in a glass frame, in a highly secured vault, for only me to look at.
Guess that’s why I’ll never be rich.
