Having a plan or a budget for your sports card purchases is a helpful tool which can increase your enjoyment of the hobby.

Some have a certain amount of their income set aside for card purchases. Personally, I only spend money on cards that comes from the sale of other cards. So my card budget is only limited by the amount of sales I have!

Here are a few questions to get you thinking about coming up with a cardboard budget/plan of your own.

What is your approach? 

Do you have a goal? 

Do you have a set budgeted amount you set aside for cards? 

Do you sacrifice a car or something for your house to buy another box of cards? 

Do you buy cards instead of saving for retirement, or does buying and selling add to the money you have available for retirement?
