I would rather have Jay Lenos car collection but when you're rich you're rich. A billion dollars.

Somewhere his daughters said call back after he passes.  Anyone who has had to figure out what to do with their parents stuff after they are gone gets this lol.

Give me Irsays collection.   I could sell a portion of it.   Then buy Jay Lenos collection and still have hundreds of millions worth of my original collection intact.

I'm sure it's all in a trust.

Sounds awesome - but - millionaires & billionaires live in a whole different universe than twentyaires!!

Cool stuff.  Good on Irsay for not selling his collection to be moved to Dubai.

Sometimes I wish someone would offer Jimmy a Billion for the Colts as long as they would keep them in Indy!

One, they are worth like 4B last Forbes check. Two, he at least cares about his team, there's a lot of owners out there that are only for the money and couldn't care at all what the team does

Well the whale he was going to help get to the ocean so the sharks could eat it’s helpless self died, so the Irsay kids saved some money there lol.

Well Irsay's  guitar collection and Leno's car collection trump my modest vintage fishing reel collection.

If you got a rig of Hemingway's or some old nets from Peter the Apostle you might have more than you think.

Na, just mostly Abu Garcia Ambassadeur and Shimano Bantaam Baitcasters with  some other rods and reels sprinkled in. 

They were built like tanks back then and still function very well. I'm a Tackleholic and have way too much fishing stuff, old and new. Lol

It seems like everything these days are going up in value. 

The classic car market has exploded. And even the Daily Driver has sky rocketed. 

I'm a novice but I believe my lower end Gibson SG and classical Yamaha have increased too.

 

I wish food prices go down because I'm a few lbs. overweight and don't want to lose them since I have good money invested in them.

yes you are right, even the most basic cars if maintained well go up in value -- talking classics of course.

I don't really have a collection of anything.  just odds and ends.   I have a 10 million year old megladon tooth.
