You all must have heard the story of "Chicken Little", well I think I hear him calling when I read all the fears about collecting chips and the future thereof. If you are an investor and are using casino chips then you are in the wrong place please go to the stock market or buy reality.
I have been collecting chips and tokens for 40 years and it is not as an investment but because I enjoy holding works of art and what they have represented. If you are bailing out maybe I can afford some of the chips I lack.
Self-fulfilling prophecy is, in the beginning, a false definition of a situation evoking a new behavior which makes the original false conception come true. Stock markets are a good example of that and the fact that people act like cattle.
Do you enjoy collecting or are you investing. Most of the time the dealer is the only one that profits.
As long as there are chips on a table there will be someone collecting them.
Something to think about!
