What are some things you own now that you think will increase in value later?

Randomly found a beanie baby article online yesterday talking about the worth of these things. Crazy how something so insignificant when I was kid boomed into the value that it has now. Same thing with rare Nintendo games and such. Got me thinking that maybe I should hold onto my consoles and games right now I'm case they're worth something 50 years from now.

What are some things that you guys are holding onto in hopes of a crazy value increase?

Unless they are somehow unique or limited edition... not likely. Anything mass market today won't have much value in the future.

If you think it will it won't.

It's always the random rare early stuff and then once it gets popular it gets mass produced but everyone still collects it thinking it will gain the value of it's earlier versions and 20 years later they are hoarding a closet full of crap you couldn't give away if you tried.

This coming from an avid baseball card collector in the late 80s-mid 90s. It was supposed to pay for my college!

Some of my Jazz Fest posters.

My house in Dallas is already worth 25% more than I paid for it a few years ago (thanks Dallas booming real estate market).

My house in New Orleans maybe. Market is hot now in Nola, but I'm not sure it'll be able to sustain that. Don't think I'll lose money on it though.

Certain original artworks I own probably shutoff I don't buy art as an investment. I just buy what I like.
