Yes, this is true. I was acquainted with someone who collected everything from cereal boxes to pez, but ultimately that stuff is really only worth what someone will ACTUALLY pay you for it!
According to a recent story ... LEGO sets in mint condition are a better investment than gold. I'm curious if anybody here has bought toys to keep as an investment?
I collect Hotwheels that are worth quite a lot. I wouldn't really consider them an "investment" just fun things I enjoy having and witnessing how valuable it becomes.
Also, Gold wouldn't be considered as an investment in the first place.
Those things are so painful to step on.
