Retired decorator's Pokémon cards sell for £1.5M

Pokemon cards are today's latest ponzi scheme and have an infinite printing supply without any utility or valid use case whatsoever.

They are today's beanie babies and is a complete waste of money. Even stablecoins have a better use case than this over inflated garbage.

As a child I had considerably more than 42 Pokemon cards, from that time range, and all in excellent condition with several "shinies"... all of which went into the washing machine because I left them in my pocket. Depressing.
