[@ancientmeww]

Room is looking great ❤️

[@sarahtonin8144]

The first step to successful investing is figuring out your goals and risk tolerance - either on your own or with the help of a Financial Advisor. If you can get the facts about savings and investing with a well detailed plan, you should be able to gain financial security over the years and enjoy the benefits of managing your income.

@Casino Şimşek I think the key thing here is working with a professional. Yes people have devoted their lives to making profits in the market, but those of us who haven't but are interested in investing can simply work with them.

I rately/never comment on KZbin videos but I must say that as someone who have only been back into the hobby for a year, I really look forward to this in depth series on investing in Pokémon while also enjoying the hobby. There is a million videos on KZbin on “investing” in Pokémon which is basically just speculation in flipping cards. So I’m really curious what this will bring. Thanks for going in depth with the market and long term strategies. Subscribed!

This dude is chill af

[@thekingman5971]

The video KZbin has been waiting for ;) Thanks for all you do brotha

[@pokenomics]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@kimo_collects1342]

I always think these videos are important for people that are entering the hobby/considering this aspect of the hobby. They also serve as a good reminder for the more seasoned collectors. As always keep up the good work Jake!

[@octavioazevedo6578]

Awesome video, Jake! Hope more content like that is on its way, such as the beginner, intermediate and advance series you mentioned!

[@JusZard]

Love your videos bro happy you uploaded I could listen for hours my friend !

[@pokenomics]

Thanks for listening! It means a lot!

[@MetalBum]

I’d like to see more of just you talking about a subject like this instead of just the live streams. Seems like you’re more honed in and focused here. Or bring Shawn from reserved inv Great channel and analytical talk. Love it

[@TrainerSinCollects]

Great content! I have been colleting for about 2 years now and I can not express how much I have learned being in the hobby.My biggest takeaway is take your time building your collection! Keep up the great work I enjoy the lives but also enjoy the pre recorded!

[@kidsvids5917]

3 dollar WOTC 9’s, 7 figure collection, would like to see a video going over these with evidence. Really feel it will cement confidence in what you are saying 😃 can imagine you getting some push back to these statements (just an idea) All the best

[@pokenomics]

I have probably shown close to or over a million dollars of cards on the channel over the past few years. The truth is I don't really like showing or saying what I have because I collect for myself. But talking about my success is the best way to try and cut through the noise of all the other channels on KZbin to demonstrate that I actually know what I am talking about to people who don't know me in the hobby. At the end of the day the info and the market fundamentals that I share are what is important not the size of my collection and that should go for every content creator.

[@geg_8914]

If you watch his videos you will be aware of what he collects and have seen a good amount of cards to back up what was said. Love the videos keep it up, i know you arent a fan of showing but I appreciate it when you do show cards you have as I have similar collecting taste just not a similar budget aha, so I just drool on the window :)

[@charlesbrown6121]

Thanks for the video. I’m researching and thinking about investing in Pokémon. Great info

[@JavaAkuma]

Love hearing all the great tips and tricks. Always hitting us with thoughtful knowledge backed by actual experience. Can't wait to see more from the series!

Thanks for watching and commenting!

Road to 10k ✨ great work as always Jake!

[@pokenomics]

Thanks! Really appreciate it!

[@australianblastoise526]

Always appreciate your videos mate , I was never really able to part with even the cards I didn’t care about , but once I broke the shackles I found the hobby to be more enjoyable as I could both stay active and set loftier goals and also make some space and focus more on quality over quantity , keep up the good work

[@pokenomics]

Exactly, and when you realize you can get most things back it is much easier to sell things.

[@australianblastoise526]

Definently , and there’s also the added bonus of keeping the mrs happy by recycling money already spent in the hobby oppose to injecting more cash haha , but in all honesty , a card that may have zero appeal to me may be someone else’s chase or grail , it’s nice when it reaches there hands and they can appreciate it more than I did , it’s a good feeling to see them happy

[@boondockgames8805]

Very nice, looking forward to this series

[@boondockgames8805]

Still looking forward to this series

[@HawkzTube]

great video, I think the part that stuck with me the most is learning to balance both my goals alongside with my interests. That way I won't be investing into things that I both don't understand and don't enjoy

Waiting on the follow ups brother. Hope you’re doing well!! 💪❤️

[@JohnDoe_88]

When you say your buying CGC 8.5 wotc holos for $3. Do you mean you buy raw cards @$3 that grade to 8.5 or are you buying already slabbed CGC 8.5s for $3 in auction?

[@pokenomics]

I mean on occasion I get one already graded for that price in an auction that slips through.

[@JohnDoe_88]

@@pokenomics Nice congrats on that, definitely the more auctions you can look over the more deals you'll find. For a few bucks I'm happy recently just getting some raw vintage wotc English/Japanese mint holos for the collection/future speculating

[@michaelevans2594]

I’m just doing the buying right now figure out the selling later

[@legendofdawn213]

What is the best Pokemon graded card scanner in the market

[@michaelg499]

Hey Jake! Question- what do you think about the long term fundamentals of let’s say a mint copy of the ex dragon charizard and fire red leaf green ex charizard? I know it’s all about the price point but would you consider these good buys for LT time horizon?

[@pokenomics]

If I had to guess barring a huge uptick in the overall market, I don't think there is a huge rush to buy these types of cards because I think there are enough copies at the moment to continue to go around at or near current prices. However, If I didn't own these already, I would be looking to pick them up in auction as I do think they are in the top 1 percent of cards in the hobby and personally I like having them in my collection.

[@michaelg499]

My thinking was that both have total PSA pops of under 1k or right around there. A lot less than other charizards but perhaps you are right that the demand for them is not quite there compared to others. But you are saying that you do think that they will hold their value over time and steadily go up if the hobby does? My last question is about your thoughts on Japanese Neo shining gyarados. Extremely low pop compared to english version and it has the beautiful and coveted holo bleed pattern unique to only the Japanese version. I do think that’s it verified that they were much harder to pull than English version. Seems like the right recipe of low supply, high demand.

[@thekingman5971]

@@michaelg499 hey there ! Just randomly reading comments , I used to own a jap shining Gyarados. Did a good amount of research as well. Def a tough sell, but once it got to the right persons sites , it was over . I could tell the guy would do a lot for the card . After the trade I did more research. And yes I would say the jap shinings areALOT more rare . But even with that it’s still pretty niche

[@1314Bn]

I like your videos a lot. You have a good insight on investing in Pokémon cards and I learn a bit. Though don’t take it the wrong way I wish you would pronounce Pokémon properly (it’s Po-Kay-mon not po-key-mon).

[@pokenomics]

Lol, it's all good and I doubt I will ever change:P

[@MetalBum]

This was great man

[@DragonTank1400]

So true, if you don't like collecting/investing in Pokemon then you should really invest in something else.

[@POOPDRAY]

Great video Jake

I'm speculating in some limited edition comic books from a large KZbinr. I wonder how these artificially scare items from youtubers will perform in the long term like merch, youtooz, and comic books?

What eBay sniper tool do you use? I really want to try one, but have no idea which ones are legit / more tried and tested to use. Also, thanks for all your knowledge, opinions and videos!

I think Gixen and EZSniper are the ones I'm familiar with, look up their pricing structure and determine which one makes more sense for you

Have u looked into vintage funko pops yet? Many have limited pieces and iconic pop culture stuff. Psa also recently started to grade funko pops for condition as was seen at some booths at sdcc (prior they only graded autos on pops now they grade pops themselves) i think now is a great entry for many of the older funko pops

[@pokenomics]

I have a tiny bit and I do like them, but I have decided to mostly focus on cards at least for the next 5 years probably.

It's funny you mention the possibility of people losing interest in the hobby. When people buy and hoard products to turn a profit, that indeed turns people off of the hobby. Your worst enemy is in the mirror.
