I read this thread and keep thinking most of you guys are probably not married, right?
I'm married, 40 years old and retired ... my daughter just completed 38 credits of college a year after graduating high school during the pandemic. My son plays Varsity Basketball for his HS.
2.5 million today was sweet - can chill for a bit. Haha
Any tips on who to invest in going forward?
Buy today - anyone who didn't get an upgrade, buy 3 cards at a time, don't try to buy 50 at a time or someone will outbid you quickly and you wasted time posting.
Scoop as many cards the next two weeks.
Make extra stubs on the side selling gold equipment ...buy 3 sell 3.
Im looking up and down the rosters thinking who will be the next to go gold
-
I hit on correa, reynolds and tapia. Hayes is the one that surprised me though. And did framber valdez get a big upgrade last time because he didn't get one at all this week?
-
Update: sig series Santana is a god
Bigger update: forum won't let me create a new topic so I'll post here if someone else wants to make a topic. The prospect packs in the USA map now give you all 5 prospects from the pack.

I'm engaged, does that count?

Good work boys!
Had 207 Ketel Martes and 85 Starling Martes
Now that’s a Marte parte

I should’ve bought more Mullins cards. I only made like 25k.
-
I do it wrong and spread my money around too much. I have like 5 to 10 each of 7 of the new diamonds -- its obviously much more profitable to go hard into a couple cards.
I also have like 20 Ke'Bryan Hayes that i bought for like 100 stubs.....i should have bought 100.
Im learning by watching you guys make bank, tho.
Cheers!

Somebody's gotta remind me to be one of these guys who place like a billion 1-2k buy orders on golds that end up going diamond
I don't do the investing thing that much on LS cards, but a sh*t ton of those orders end up going through, even after those cards go up a tier. Seems like super easy stubs
-
Or wait am I wrong? Can a diamond be quick sold at those prices or no? Via the market?
-
My best investment was an anti-investment lol. A month or two ago when Anthony Santander was heating up I bought about 300 of him for an average of 150 stubs or so. He was a 78 and I thought he could go gold if he kept it up. Over the past two weeks I sold all of them for an average of about 400 stubs. I felt like he was going to get downgraded, possibly even to bronze, and I wanted to get my money out. Man was that the right decision lol. He dropped to 75 today and he is selling around 100-150.

So any tips on who to invest in? I need to replenish my stubs
Bryan Reynolds ratings aren’t even close to lining to with his stats yet. Just saying,
-
I invested in packs and lost a lot. Then again I have all the cards I want and there’s nothing to buy so there’s that.

@jmcdonald1817 said in Investment - how did you do?:
im trying to understand how taylor rogers goes gold
2 wins
3 loses
2.61 era
7 saves
6 holds
what am i missing that says this is good? help me understandBecause Wins, Losses, ERA, Saves and Holds have absolutely nothing to do with their ratings at all.
He has a 12.2 SO/9 rating which is excellent
He has a 1.5 BB/9 rating which is excellent.Where he stumbles is his h/9 rating which is 8.7

Not slick at posting but I had been preaching and preaching about Ohtani. Had 388 of him at the end of may. When he didn’t go Diamond last time I unloaded 88 of him. Made out good then. Well, yeah. My first year playing and I can get anything I want the rest of the year I’m pretty sure. Gonna sound like one of those full of serious
kind of guys but later in the day I pulled my 2nd trout out of that flash diamond pack sale this evening. Been a great day on the game. I also enjoy investing more than I do playing. Being relatively new I’m not sure how long these updates go on for and how long the market continues to boom but I’m currently betting on 5 others by purchasing at least 100 of each. I will never top my Ohtani’s though. I pretty much got all of those less than 2k and that’s being generous. I’m more of a football guy myself but I’ll probably buy an Ohtani jersey at some point. -

how did my investment go? BAD!
richard rodriguez for the pirates, 78 silver, he had been a 5 on daily upgrade or whatever you call for sometime now and did not get an upgrade. Only card I had invested in and a lot....IE doesn't really have anything to do with potential upgrades. It's only based on that days matchup history etc.

@raesone_psn said in Investment - how did you do?:
A couple of weeks ago there was some discussion on this forum about investments and I said I had invested in a low rated silver card with some upside that would most likely be overlooked by most people. I bought over 1300 of them throughout the weeks for next to nothing, spent less than 150 stubs a card. Today he turned gold which will absolutely be no surprise to anyone who follows baseball. My investment was no other than my fellow countryman Jonathan Schoop!
Anyone else made some good bank?
Congrats my man!
I was just thinking, all those clicks must get tiresome. LOL Wish there was an easier way like the ability to group buys/sells for the same price instead of having to go through each one individually.
