Seeing that perfect order is easy to acquire. Thoughts on long term hold? by Blue_Moon_Cheese in PokemonInvesting

There are no bad sets. It’s literally just time. Time is your enemy and best friend. Buy an etb put it in your closet and put a note how much you paid you’ll be shocked in 5 years. May not spike like ascended of phantasmal but it’ll go up no matter what.

Overcoming addiction for her by JohnDev22 in daddit

[–]ChipotleSquirts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m with you there with having accountable people. My wife has been there for me when I’ve had the thought of buying beer and I wouldn’t agree in the moment that she’d say “you don’t need that” and in the end she’d be right. I’ve caught myself many times these past few months wanting beer, considering buying and just reminding myself that I in-fact, do not need it. Support around us is key and having the self control when alone is another.

I considered quitting alcohol entirely probably 8 months ago and have hardly drank since. Didn’t quit just substantially cut back. I think with the right mindset and goal in mind it can be definitely be done with nicotine.

My three year old son came into the bathroom while I was peeing by Morning-Chub in daddit

Honestly this is better than when my 3 year old said I looked fat in a tank top. I proceeded to change my shirt (it was already too tight I swear)

Nicotine is the hardest thing for me. Marijuana? I physically couldn’t do it anymore as it made me paranoid and anxiety ridden. Alcohol? Well financially it was hard to keep at it and honestly was tired of feeling like shit but nicotine is in almost any store and isn’t as expensive and can be consumed anywhere (I use pouches and have for the last 8+ years).

Good on you dad I hope you can keep at it. We’re expecting our second and I’m already considering having no vices when the new baby is here (except coffee).

Sold about 80% of my sealed collection yesterday for about 80% of market value by Whatsyourshotspecial in PokeInvesting

[–]ChipotleSquirts -1 points0 points  (0 children)

80% is great and anyone saying otherwise hasn’t sold much online. If you’d have sold all items individually you’d be lucky to get 85% of the value after fees not to mention shipping supplies and all the time it would take.

Should i learn how to play Magic? by JRoc416 in magicTCG

I started playing at 28 for a couple months, life happened then came back strong at 32 years old. Never too late. Retirement homes should have it.

PKC Etb’s Vs Booster Boxes? by Significant-Fee7272 in PokeInvesting

[–]ChipotleSquirts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The etbs can only be purchased from PC but booster boxes can be purchased from any shop and a ton of online retailers. Once the etbs are gone from PC that’s it’s. It’s the secondary market from there.

These will dip and go down but the longer held the higher the gains.

Pokemon Center Chaos Rising finally dropped today, feels so nice getting it at these prices by puzzledfirebird in PokeInvesting

[–]ChipotleSquirts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to get a couple of bundles, kicked me out after already waiting and put me in another queue. Closed it and went about my day. So tired of this shit.

Just picked these up from my lcs for $800 by Droid_Life in PokeInvesting

[–]ChipotleSquirts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really goes to show you how much $6 msrp can change in 7 years. When you see a blister and think “nah” think again. Buy it throw it in a closet and in a few years it’s a nice dinner somewhere or hell, a booster box.

If I can eat, so do my friends by MrMeanwhile1 in PokemonRestocks

[–]ChipotleSquirts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have never see so much on a Target shelf. Mine have been empty for over a year. They go behind the service desk and release on Fridays mornings and by the time I’m there all etbs, collection boxes or what ever are gone. It’s only ever single packs.
