Smart Investment?

Last week, I sent $20 to Tim Sylvia for an autographed pic and hope he mails it before his Fedor fight.

I figure if he wins (small possibility), the price for an autograph goes up. If Fedor rips off the arm he signs autographs with or kills him (larger possibility), perhaps the price goes up due to limited supply.

Hey, I'm not Donald Trump (no possibility, a freaking fact) so $20 is a decent-sized investment for me.

Thoughts?

I doubt its going to be worth much in the long run. Sylvia just isn't a big draw.

Sylvia charges people for his autograph? Lol

I have stuff signed by Crocop, Fedor, and Wand and I didn't have to pay a dime.

$20 for an autograph of one of the most least-liked former UFC champs? Yep sounds like a great investment to me....

I have to agree. I would never pay $20 for something that somebody wrote on.... Unless it was written on by Jesus or something.
