The hobby talks about buying.
It talks about selling.
It celebrates flips, upgrades, and big auction results.

It rarely talks about holding.

In this flagship episode of Stacking Slabs, Brett explores the power of keeping the right cards in a market that rewards motion.

He breaks down why holding is underserved in a culture built on velocity and why conviction matters more than constant movement. Drawing from his own collecting journey, Brett outlines the three buckets he uses before buying any card and the only three reasons he will sell.

The conversation moves into the psychology of ownership, the tension between attachment and arbitrage, and why not every 1/1 deserves long term status.

At the center of the episode is one grounding question:

If the market shut down for five years, which cards would you still be proud to own?

This episode challenges collectors to define their lanes, clarify their rules, and build alignment between their purchases and their purpose.

Buy with intention.
Sell with discipline.
Hold with conviction.
