    Pinball machines are assets and, depending on the market, can be considered a liquid asset. Having said that, I don’t discuss my finances with anyone, so what would it matter?

    Quoted from Dr-pin:

    If you really really need assets, chances are the total economi is tilted, or about to go down.
    The only assets worth mentioning then is guns, gold, land, shelter/house, storeable food or food producing capabilities, reliable friends, family and fuel.
    I might have forgotten something, but pinball machines isn't ever on that list.

    In an economic collapse, I would agree 100% with your list of ‘guaranteed’ assets. However, for the past 20 years the value of pins has held reasonably well and I’ve been able to sell quickly, without difficulty, which is the definition of a liquid asset.
