Time for another CD!

To a certain extent, we all invest in Magic. You need to own the cards, or their digital equivalents, to play. At the very least, you need to devote resources (especially time) to brewing and playing.

But that's not what I'm talking about here. How many of you really invest in Magic? That is, how many of you play Magic like a stock market, speculating, buying, trading, and selling to make a profit or even just to sustain your gameplay without the need to reinvest?

Of course, there are different levels of investment. Some people buy up boxes of sealed product or trade up and sell out. Other people just pick up cards they think might be good, then trade them off once they rise a little bit.

That is awesome. Did you get something big for them, or just take the money? Well done.
