It's okay, I'm down on my position, but I'm cost averaging all the way down and improving my cost basis. Those babies are going to the moon. They _have to._ (" -.-)
i dont even play anymore or collect. but i kinda want one of them. almost pulled the trigger when i seen one for $19... i will wait prob get it for 50 cents in a few weeks
Investor Timmy: I can make money by investing in a case of Ikoria collector booster boxes and sit on it. 1 million other Timmies: I can make money by investing in a case of Ikoria collector booster boxes and sit on it. Me: And the result is that no one make money, because there are millions of boxes available.
Loved this video and it told the sad truth of something that feels as if i do constantly everyday i go to work, which is why i started getting the wheels turning again to go back to college. Thank you!
worrying about failing can be just as bad if not worse than failing. love the video Rudy, im a newby here and i appreciate your videos. very motivating for me :)
Anything good will get a bit rough before it gets better. A calm head is most essential. I'm just an average CSR/IT yutz, but it pays the bills and I'm pretty good at it. So I'm happy. Thanks for the wonderful video as always, never change Rudy, never change
I wish I acted sooner on stocks. I got in late march and as of today, my 50 some odd stock picks have had 28% collective growth, ranging from losing 12% to gaining 278% Investors will always have failures. But if you win more than you lose, it won't matter
Rudy, I'm working towards a CFA Charterholder... I'll hope to have it (in my opinion) in August 2021. And here I am, looking at my childhood again looking at an investing angle. Keep up the good videos.
When most drop-in investors start seeing the time×cost×energy to flip cards and dive in deep,its only the ones that are focused that are gonna do well...90-95% try something diffrent once they see the overall work it actually takes!..kudos to you for staying steady at the helm of your own mighty ship!....:)
“Throw cat nip in my face. I’ll be licking my face.” OMG 😂 the hurt won’t stop. That was so Fing funny. That is the best thing Rudy has ever said to date.
There is a saying that fit this thing perfectly here: the only thing that separates a master from a novice is the amount of times they has failed and the numbers are not in the master's favor
The thought process you're describing is by design Rudy. You're picking at a MUCH BIGGER picture sir. Knowingly or not. Willingly or not. Love ya bud, stay frosty.
Great perspective. Invest based on (1) a plan and not emotion and (2) what you understand. I personally don't invest in magic cards since I don't understand them, but do invest in other things I do.
I seem to have those ideas a couple times a month but I've been doing this sort of thing a long time at this point (about 20 years. I was the weird kid telling my parents to buy sealed boxes of pokemon and yugioh to save). I try to always get a piece of anything that looks good. Not everything works out. You might buy 30 Macfarlane Toys Gold Angelas in 1995 and watch their value drop to nothing and remain there even until today or you might buy 1st edition sealed boxes of neo discovery and watch them rise to insane prices over the next 20 years. You have to weigh the risk vs reward of an investment but you can't be afraid to act on it either. I've missed so many opportunities because I was afraid or lacked confidence. For example, In 2010 I traded for a few fetch lands at 10$ each and I remember looking at them and thinking "Damn, this is good. This should be worth a lot more." but I never went out and bought a bunch of them even though I saw them as undervalued and *knew* in the back of my mind that it was great thing to hold on to. I have lots of stories like that, but also lots of successes and failures. To me, the failures don't hurt even half as much as the missed opportunities. With the failures at least I tried, I did something. I can laugh at it later. (Just don't go "all in" on anything.) With missed opportunities I just feel sick thinking about them. Even if you don't invest much, you gotta act on these hunches when you feel the tug. Usually they're there for a reason. Be cautious but don't be afraid. Look at the supply, the demand, the uses, whether it's consumable or not, whether it's the 1st release of an untested product or the 20th "limited edition" in name only of something that's already popular. Never invest more than you're willing to lose but be willing to invest. Be patient. If I'd sold my boxes of pokemon even 5 years ago I'd be so mad at myself right now. I'm on twenty years now with these. Yeah it's a long time but that's what it takes sometimes. Sometimes a quick flip is fine if you happen into the right place at the right time but those are the exceptions. Real value is gained one day at a time.
If 1/10 fears come true that’s actually pretty scary. It depends on your fears if that’s the case. If you’re worried about serious things than the risk isn’t actually worth it. If 10% of the time if you take the risk meant you’d die then almost nobody would take that chance.
One: there is more to fight for now than in all the years of revolution and strife in the last 1000 years. Two: Theres plenty to "fear" or worry about thats plain for anyone to see that opens their eyes or has the wit or foresight to see it all happening or coming. Three: Taking advice from a crazed man that works 22 hours a day with cards only breaking for the occasional taco, pushing his son in his large toy train car or givin' his woman a little sugar; is my idea of the perfect soap box. lol
I bought 6 boxes of ultimate timmy masters to hold, got them at $450au each, they retailed at $500-550 each (australian) each. Expected them to go up as high as $800-900 in 4 years. And Wizards saying "No more masters for the foreseeable future"" was the icing on the cake. 1.5 years later, they've gained not one cent of value, mostly due to the invention of pioneer and the destruction of modern and legacy. Should have bought battlebond
Unexpected bills. Save for it. If they are regular bills, you do have a spreadsheet that lists the bills and when they are due on a regular basis, right? If you don't have a budget spreadsheet, do that. Takes concerns off..... or accentuates them.
I'm investing in the 24K gold Magic set. 5 foils 6 rares or mythics 6 uncommon and 2 common packs with a solid gold box topper in every pack. The ultimate unlimited special collectors masters edition set. Lol
Tell em Rudy!!! BTW you have my favorite game down there behind you to your right! Wall Street Kid, all my friends thought I was stupid for liking that game!
100% agree with you Rudy. YOUR point is the difference between my late 50s quasi-retired azz and my friends who are still wage slaves. I actually invested in equities starting in the early 80s when the Dow was under 2,000 ( LOL ). And you are also correct. I SHOULD have been buying zero coupon bonds at +8% instead because of risk... but that option was/is not offered to mundanes like myself. Anyways... I rode the greatest economy in the history of mankind... and I am still riding - LOL enjoy your videos dude... bring back Russian Rudy!
I wonder how many other people are doing this now investing has become popular. Might need to wait 20 years instead of 10.. oh wait I forgot Timmy's exist..
it's the 3% rule most dreamers never get to the goal because they end up quitting within 3% of the goal there's a story of 2 guys digging for gold and the vein went dry they gave up and sold the equipment to a salvager who they told the story to the salvager got an expert to inspect the mine and he said the vein would continue if he dug 3 feet to one side of the vein path the salvager bought the mine and found the new vein and dug up millions in gold
Wandering off the topic, will you ever sell those lottery cards inside the box on the bookshelf ? Also : Really interested in seeing your collection of foreign lang modern staples...
Scaredy Cats Waterbowl today, huh? My issue is I never take my own advice. Should have held that AMD stock since 3.5$. Should have bought google, amazon, etc. But I am always trying to go for big gains. I am now making a rule that 10-20% of profits (in stocks) stay in that company or go into a nice dividend stock. (Canadian dividend, since it's less taxable then)
I gave away literally about 20 shopping bags full of magic cards back in the last decade. Had fetch and pain lands galore, Foil Damnation and a full standard dragonstorm deck. Gave it all away, The regret is real friends, the regret is real. But I did get MTG about 20 new players from it, so its a win in a way ha
No ,kind sir,you started 20 gamers on a odyssey they will carry with them forever,and they will hopefully introduce new players too. Price for your cards:debatable..price for their joy:unattainable...good for you!
I'm selling a a foil desecrated tomb m19 and a elesh norn mystery booster card for 15$ pickup tomorrow already sold so people buy the products if they can get a deal
Considering Wizards is putting out 17,000 products this year with mostly bomb reprints... I'd lay low with the investing unless u want the floppiest taco.
When are you going to do a video on single collector boosters from the big box stores......some of us are not lucky enough to find/buy a 250$ collectors booster box. Most Meijer's/Wal-Mart stores at least here in Michigan have the single packs for about 30$ out the door.
You diversify your portfolio and buy in at multiple price points. Over time you end up with a gain. You don't go all in the first time you invest. That's where people go wrong.
Timmy: "You devalue all of my Magic Cards !" Wizard´s Printer goes BBBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
There's someone out there who bought 20 Corona cards that will learn what failing at investing is very quickly.
you would think so but who knows man
It's okay, I'm down on my position, but I'm cost averaging all the way down and improving my cost basis. Those babies are going to the moon. They _have to._ (" -.-)
@Luke Steiner them rookie numbers I bought 2k and I know they are going up up up.
@@fsmoura I'm holding out for them to fall more. They're not bottom yet
i dont even play anymore or collect. but i kinda want one of them. almost pulled the trigger when i seen one for $19... i will wait prob get it for 50 cents in a few weeks
Rudy, you are truly one of the most under rated motivational speakers of all time.
Well at least he is better than Dan Lok
Instructions unclear.
Quitted my hospital CEO job in the middle of a pandemic to start a LGS and got bankrupt investing in Seance.
Thank you Rudy.
Relax, your fears are overblown. Remember: Just 10% of them become true! Take solace in that while you go down.
Voice in my head tells me "yes, do it" but my wallet tells me "hahahaha......hahahahah"
Getting a good therapy session from creepy Rudy. It's a good day
Who can print more: Pappa Hasbro printing machine or the FED?
The fed because they don’t even need to physically print.
Goes brrrrrrrr
@@MagicMetalMoney The fed has more practice doing it.
trust your intuition. the hawk learns how to fly by falling down the cliff, not by staying in the nest
Price for cards: Debatable. : Price for joy obtained playing..: Unattainable.
Hasbro's corporate logo posted over leonardo DiCaprio face when he stands next to the money printing machine in catch me if you can!
Investor Timmy: I can make money by investing in a case of Ikoria collector booster boxes and sit on it.
1 million other Timmies: I can make money by investing in a case of Ikoria collector booster boxes and sit on it.
Me: And the result is that no one make money, because there are millions of boxes available.
1 million other mes: No one will make money, because everybody else thinks they can make money.
Buy some booster boxes a 9 months after release. Wait 9 years... profit???
Got a good laugh at the sudden close. Ha. Terrific info and topic. Thanks for taking the time to make a slightly different video. Props Rudy!!
Two takeaways from this video: 1. Papa Hasbro needs to act like the Fed; 2. Ride those investments to the ground. Stay the course!😜
Accurate recall on the reasoning behind the slime in Ghostbusters 2, bravo sir.
Rudy = 100% TRUTH! (He is why I do TCG box openings on my channel.) Thank you, genius Rudy!
Loved this video and it told the sad truth of something that feels as if i do constantly everyday i go to work, which is why i started getting the wheels turning again to go back to college. Thank you!
worrying about failing can be just as bad if not worse than failing. love the video Rudy, im a newby here and i appreciate your videos. very motivating for me :)
I love RUDY. A 10 minute video to tell everyone there problem is they just need to buy from him and stop stalling.
I literally just got done watching your video on your Indian Casino investment. What a lead in to this.
Timmy: “NOOOOOO you can’t just reprint all my non-reserve list investments in print-to-demand sets!!!” Wizards: “Haha Masters set machine go brrrrrr”
Day 54 of commenting every day until Rudy restocks T-shirts.
haha, luckily I got mine in just in time! ;)
You know Rudy's waiting for day 69 of these comments to restock. Yes thats a giggity.
I'm rooting for you. Keep it up 😄
I was waiting for Rudy to eat that taco in the back
Simple Rudy ramp video.... my favourite!
Thanks for the pep talk uncle Rudy. You're right, I shouldn't give up on myself.
"The Ixalan Dino-Store"
Subscription war alpha investments vs vintage magic channel TH-cam guys
I go to flea markets, thrift shops, and storage auctions for my cards and memorabilia. Never lose Růdy.
I was studying for my test until I watched this video! Thanks Rudy!
Anything good will get a bit rough before it gets better. A calm head is most essential. I'm just an average CSR/IT yutz, but it pays the bills and I'm pretty good at it. So I'm happy. Thanks for the wonderful video as always, never change Rudy, never change
getting more philosophical sir.. love it man.. tacos for everyone
"Disappointed Dad" Rudy with the hard facts!
WotC: The inner machinations of my mind are an enigma
Result: DOUBLE MASTERS, SECRET LAIR
If this video was a VHS tape, the printing machine part would already be unplayable by now
I wish I acted sooner on stocks. I got in late march and as of today, my 50 some odd stock picks have had 28% collective growth, ranging from losing 12% to gaining 278%
Investors will always have failures. But if you win more than you lose, it won't matter
Rudy, thank you for making this video today. I really needed to hear this.
I'm here just for these videos... thanks. Life can still be beautiful.
Rudy, I'm working towards a CFA Charterholder... I'll hope to have it (in my opinion) in August 2021. And here I am, looking at my childhood again looking at an investing angle. Keep up the good videos.

Had to minimize this creepy Rudy video before my "work from home" meeting with no pants on starts
This is the second most important video on this channel. The most important one is "Why Does Rudy Work Alone?"
Rudy! I'm all in VTIQ!!! Soon to be Nikola June 2nd - 1st zero emissions trucking company.
Note: I'm holding long 3-5 years
The thumbnail 10:01
The actual video 10:00
What's going on Rudy, I smell a Conspiracy!
I didn't expect this at all. I approve.
Finally I get to sit back, and watch some Alpha Investments 😎
“Throw cat nip in my face. I’ll be licking my face.” OMG 😂 the hurt won’t stop. That was so Fing funny. That is the best thing Rudy has ever said to date.
My recommended is you Rudy....ah I see what you did there lol. Love the vids man, keep your head up!
Rudy, i just love you for such content! It took me a while but eventually i came twice while watching this!
I love the crazy Rudy thumbnail.
These are some of your best videos
There is a saying that fit this thing perfectly here: the only thing that separates a master from a novice is the amount of times they has failed and the numbers are not in the master's favor

Got notification , click notification, saw 10 minute time on video before knowing who it was or what it was about. And first thought was the Rudy show
I miss ranting Rudy but I like pink visor Rudy even more lol
Man when do you make the next finance/ investing video? Stocks bonds whatever...
Your one of the best in this subject

"Oh! That's a good point."
Nice powerful ending there!
There is good money in backyard chickens at the moment. The price has skyrocketed this year.
Thank you Rudy. You content must in my personal top for amount of knowledge shared, very fell can do what you are doing IMHO.
I think it has more to do with the fact that many people are struggling these days and don't have the resources to pursue serious collecting.
One: there is more to fight for now than in all the years of revolution and strife in the last 1000 years.
Two: Theres plenty to "fear" or worry about thats plain for anyone to see that opens their eyes or has the wit or foresight to see it all happening or coming.
Three: Taking advice from a crazed man that works 22 hours a day with cards only breaking for the occasional taco, pushing his son in his large toy train car or givin' his woman a little sugar; is my idea of the perfect soap box. lol
MAN i love this timmy economics videos...
Jokes on you Rudy, I am eating my lunch while watching you with seal modern pokemon cases behind me. long live the house of CARDS!

Greetings from berlin dude, love your vids
I hear what you're saying but I also noticed you removed the wallstreetbets clock from the shelf this time.
And he hits it on the head, I open packs to get that dopamine release. I am unable to leave things unopened if I have bought them.
100% agree with you Rudy. YOUR point is the difference between my late 50s quasi-retired azz and my friends who are still wage slaves.

I remember this scene from Under Siege where Steven Segal says....
Sitting on 19 cases and counting...
I wonder how many other people are doing this now investing has become popular. Might need to wait 20 years instead of 10.. oh wait I forgot Timmy's exist..
I like the taco in the background
not me, my thoughts are trying to become actions past my wallets limit

What a sales pitch .
105 year old Rudy's last words".Dont,..sell...cough...my ..alpha,..cough..psa 10's
.."...looks to the sun,with arms outstreched.....exit stage left..
I really appreciate this type of videos man. They keep me motivated when the thoughts of doubt regarding my long term investments come in
Great job and good luck
Rudy is the GaryVee of Magic, love it
Ghostbusters reference worth it!
I'm selling a a foil desecrated tomb m19 and a elesh norn mystery booster card for 15$ pickup tomorrow already sold so people buy the products if they can get a deal
3:27 When Nacho Fries come back
..blah,blah blah Rudy...it comes down to one word...Focus...some people can,some cant...but its focus .pure and simple.
Rudy subtly hinting that he finally worked up the courage to ask a girl out
I came for a rant but stayed for motivational speeches about dreams
Considering Wizards is putting out 17,000 products this year with mostly bomb reprints... I'd lay low with the investing unless u want the floppiest taco.
If people invested in sets or cards they cared about -not speculation, I wonder how this would impact Wizards trajectory
