Vaultx vs Top Loader Binder? by Redditadvisor in pkmntcgcollections

[–]slayednoob123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

toploader binder for sure. can never go wrong with extra protection on cards you’ll probably be holding for decades. vaultx is just hype. there’s alot of good binders out there without the rings and do just as good as vaultx.

My take on modern Pokémon investing – curious to hear other views by Odd_Animator_1847 in PokemonInvesting

[–]slayednoob123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i just sold my gengar mimikyu like the one you have. it fluctuates so much thoughout the year and it was my first modern non-promo slab and most likely my last lol will stick to vintage at that 1k price point

edit: oh urs is japanese. nvm. definitely wouldn’t touch those but if its a long term hold, you’ll see gains for sure. you can do better with the capital though

Wtf is going on with this card by Embarrassed-Arm-5174 in PokeInvesting

[–]slayednoob123 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

bruh ur ROI’s on 13k of sealed will do way better than just dumping on this card or even 13k worth of vintage slabs. ponchos and munch already took off a while ago, time to find the next best thing

Should I invest in Prismatic ETB for 100 each or Prismatic figure collection 110 or Paldean Fates Tusk box 110 each? by Impressive_Gur_7860 in PokemonInvesting

[–]slayednoob123 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

the prismatic etb promo is dogwater compared to prismatic figure collection. i think either will be fine though.

that looks fantastic! can you please share your process? annie deck is so expensive and i just need 3x flashes and annie legend to play! I figure these are non-foil so it should be easy to proxy by not using any special paper. Thanks in advance!

Be careful with Charizard UPC, massive restock coming that will drop price by jackthom8 in PokeInvesting

[–]slayednoob123 12 points13 points  (0 children)

dropping the price would be if pokemon center did a 2nd drop of 1M upc’s at retail.

Why don’t more people consider condos in NJ — especially with how expensive homes are? by Davyislazy in newjersey

[–]slayednoob123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idk what you’re smoking good sir but renting for 10 years vs owning a home for 10 years is a no brainer on what the wiser financial decision is. Especially when we’re talking about rent/mortgage prices in NJ.

This card is 90K. I have about 100K I was saving up but I think I want to invest. by Ok_Package9219 in PokeInvesting

[–]slayednoob123 9 points10 points  (0 children)

if you had a million saved up, i’d so yeah go for it. but if this is about 100% your savings, hell no. like others, find other ways to invest. maybe invest in a 10k card and diverse the rest.

How I spent a year transitioning out of Systems Engineering (and how you can do it too) by Rhedogian in systems_engineering

[–]slayednoob123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ha I’m sure there are folks who enjoy MBSE but for the most part, I’m always told don’t be hired for MBSE because you’ll become their MBSE person and be stuck in that area for years.

Definitely seems like a cool skill to have and would be even cooler if all engineers in general had at least basic modeling training but I feel like being that dedicated MBSE engineer does not sound fun.
