Value of certain investments
After
looking and cringing at my gloomy 401K reports I started to wonder at the possibility
of using
various collectibles as an investment. Here is the value of certain
investments if they were bought new and held to today.
Mickey mantle rookie
card 145% a year if held from 1952 to today.
Mark twain first edition Huck
Finn 7% a year if held from 1850 to today.
1965 - V8 Mustang Convertible
11%
1965 - Ford Thunderbird Convertible 7%
1967 - Mustang Fastback
V8 12%
1965 - VW Convertible around 7%
1979 - Hummel figurine if bought
retail (-5%) a year.
1984 - Original Macintosh (128k) Computer (-96%). If
you bought one in 1990 for say $10 it would be worth about 1500% more today
1992
- Danbury Mint M.I. Hummel "Stormy Weather" Clock (-17%) from 1992 to
today
