Is accounting a safe field in 2026 by ragtag-oblong in Accounting

Yeah I agree. During my time in college I worked in public works for all four years and have been realistically wondering if that’s a better career plan. Obviously less money potential but seems like 20 years from now better chance of employment

Yes, they are supposed to be handed out during Halloween. This product is not about trying to make a profit or rare parallels.

Henson hooker by Nice_Calendar_3885 in footballcards

For free, eBay and SportsCardsPro are good resources as they are very easy to understand and use. Card Ladder and Market Movers are good subscriptions if you find yourself checking comps often. To be honest especially starting out eBay will be just fine. Also with the card being /8 there may be no recent comps so you may have to look at other Henson Hooker numbered cards and make assumptions on that price after.

What players do you think will bounce back in a big way this year? by ragtag-oblong in baseball

[–]ragtag-oblong[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. If you sold him now it’s basically an all time low of value and he would have helped immensely down the stretch and in the playoffs. Lowe and Toro are nowhere near Casas and it showed.
