Sure, but millennials weren’t the generation that brought us things like this. They thought they could horde them to fund their kids college. I know firsthand, my mom spent hundreds of thousands on them claiming they would only go up. Now she’s got nothing. God forbid she buy a fucking savings bond.
I think it’s also the younger users here don’t know/remember the time when all Boomers flipped their shit and thought Beanie Babies were THE ONE TRUE investment strategy. They didn’t watch their parents blow their entire retirement fund on a scam. Instead they were the ones that actually got to play with them, so naturally they look back on them fondly.

I really hate these things and can’t believe I wasted money on some my kids wanted.
But you do buy something. It’s not imaginary

At least beanie babies were a toy a child could play with.
Noooo! They’d lose value! (they’d go from 2 to 1.5 dollars)
Well, that’s why you get the tag protectors!
Uh oh, you’ve offended the people who are prone to falling for scams and grifts. Across multiple generations.
