This may be my last podcast...about sports collectibles! As many of you know, at the beginning of this year, my family and I jumped off the cliff and purchased Ray's Sports Collection which included a storefront at Traders World and a warehouse full of collectibles. From the beginning, I knew this was a short-term focus until the speaking industry came back—but I didn't know just how short-term it would be until an amazing guy named Tim walked into our store. In this episode, I'm sharing the amazing story of how we sold Ray's Sports Collection. You won't want to miss this one.

When we jumped off the cliff and purchased Ray's Sports Collection, I didn't want to take the leap without knowing that we'd have enough margin to be generous. Yes, it's a business—but surprising and delighting customers by giving away the unexpected is our core value. So in this episode, I'm sharing some amazing stories of what generosity has led to in this venture, along with why I chose this over Zoom meetings during the pandemic. I'd be honored if you listened.

For many years, Ray's Sports Collection was just that—Ray's! Ray is a real guy who sold his incredible inventory of sports cards and collectibles to me, and in this episode, I honor him and his decision to sell his collection to me. If you're a collector yourself, you've probably had this passing thought: What happens to my collection when I'm gone? I'm also sharing stories of other collectors who made great plans for their collection, and ones who didn't, plus the one thing that will always be more important than your collection.
