If you don’t develop a “personal” collection you’re just going to compare yourself to those with more disposable income.
Just to preface, there’s nothing wrong with just spending a ton of money on the most expensive and most popular cards, that’s a valid collecting style.
I’m just seeing a lot of people in the comments of others that have a large amount of disposable income and are show casing the most popular cards in the hobby.
If you buy what you like, what means something to you and what you genuinely think is cool, not what the market dictates you should buy, then you can’t go wrong.
Besides seeing a diverse collection of cards that people genuinely love is far, far more interesting than seeing the same old cards every time a binder gets shown off. A feel that way about single Pokémon collections too.
Appreciate that you’ve cultivated something that’s pretty cool my friends, no need to be comparing it to others :)
