It's a Picasso!
Yeah, just like some (or most) of you guys, I'm thinking of ways to earn money. I've been doing this game developing stint and it's fun but doing it alone is sometimes boring. One evening, I remembered that I used to collect comic books that I learned from a friend since teenage years, and whenever I get my allowance, I put aside money for comic books. After the bell rings, we hitch a ride going to our favorite store and browse, look and drool at those first printed number one's. I usually get those comic books with attractive drawings, and he usually get the engaging stories. We always ask this saleslady for gossips of collector's items on the way and even pay for reservations. The comic book is expensive enough for us to skip snacks and just share stories of what happened or what might happen in the coming series.
Now, after 14 years, I logged on the net and see their worth, and I was surprised on how much they value. I learned that it increased by 45% better than investing in banks. I never realized that those works of art and movies in paper would cost that much now, 14 years later. Before, my friend always say that he plans to give those comic books he collected for years to his children, to his children's children as an inheritance, and maybe someday when they are carefully kept, those comic books will be a reminder of the treasures it holds. Hey, it's a Picasso!
