1554 - Father/Son: Cage Lawyer and son Ian, Part 2

Dr. James Beckett welcomes Cage Lawyer and his 13-year-old son, Ian (who really wants to go to this year's National). They discuss hobby friendships, how Ian and his dad differ in what they collect (sports vs Pokémon) and risk tolerance, and the fun and financial lessons around breaking versus other uses for money. Beckett explains why he started Beckett to provide card accurate values and protect collectors, reflects on how fast comps move today, and shares hopes that more collectors, especially kids, will keep the hobby thriving.
