Baby boomers perpetually lament their lack of prescience (or, more likely, their parents' lack of prescience) when it came to hanging on to the jewels of their youth (or, more specifically, the stuff from the Fifties and Sixties that's now selling for a fortune on eBay) -- Beatles bubblegum cards, Superman comic books, Barbie dolls. If only!
The next time you hear someone whining about their lost treasures of yesteryear, ask them this: If you were to live another 50 years, what inexpensive pop-culture items would you save and collect TODAY that will assure you instant wealth in 30-40 years? Or, for parents: Which of your kids' toys, books, gadgets should you store in a metal trunk for them so that they will be able to cash in during their adulthood?
Thought so.
