Why blog about Stamps?

A novice at blogging. I was inspired one day to get down to it. Well, why do i really want to blog about stamps?

You know before this I would read a lot of articles online that would tell me that there are a lot of sentiments attached to the stamp collecting and that the sentimental value is more that the market value. But to me there are 2 types of collectors the ones who collect for monetary investment and the ones who collect for personal satisfaction. I would fall into the latter.

Over the last 20 years I have managed to accumulate a small army of stamps. I pride myself in that... sure.. who would not. But I really want to get to know them better. :-) the stamps I mean. Hence this blog. I do intend to go to my wits end to dig out information and value to my endless list of stamps. Too senti.. well. I for one would sure like to know and derive for myself if what I have is of value or just another sticky back picture.
