My entire collection is part of my "emergency fund" and I would let them all go if I had to. My wife is also under instruction to sell them if something happens to me.
If I was facing some sort of "grim" situation, then the hobby goes. Until a later date when things are better for me and I can work on the hobby again.
Quoted from volkdrive:Yep, this is the same here......its actually a pretty safe and "liquid" item despite their size.....not an investment but there if you need it.
Yeah I don't factor it giving me 100% back on the dollar, or a rise in value, but that with little effort each one could be liquidated for a mortgage payment or whatever else was needed.
For my own net worth calculations I value the games at "sell it now" pricing, not top dollar or what I would try selling them for in reality, but if there was an emergency what would I price them to go out the door asap.
