I try not to collect things. At my stage of life I want less (things) other than more.

I don't want to leave my kids collectables... Just some real estate and money.

Not so much of a "collector" of anything but rather a borderline pack rat.
When I went to move out of CA in '08 after living in the same house for 22 yrs., I didn't want to ship/store all 15 motorcycles so I sold 10 of them in less than 12 days. Sad times.

I collect;
Scotch Excellence magazines Engineering textbooks Cars, have 6 Bicycles My wife collects; Breyer model horses Old books over 100 years Irish art Family history Knowledge Some of my collecting is intentional, such as the Scotch, and some of the collecting is due to having a hard time parting with sentimental objects which stems back from when my mommy threw out my favorite crocodile stuffed animal.

I've been collecting bass guitar stuff these past few months. It's not so much a hobby as it is a sickness.

I collect art and have a unique collection of fuzzy / out of focus cell phone pictures. My favorite subjects are (in no particular order) cats, bmx bike related content, and random crappy bar shots. There is a guy in Florida that is an absolute GENIUS with a Nokia flip phone.
