comparing top pro pay

WTF?? There's a BIG difference in a serious player and someone who plays for a living. I'd bet EVERY player on here is pretty serious about their game.
I agree, I work hard on my game but I don't think I will ever get to a pro level, should I quit because I can't? I don't think so, I enjoy the game and I have improved dramatically, there are literally hundreds of millions of people who play golf who will never play at a pro level, why can't it be the same for pool?

Pool Ball Collecting.

Motorola Bar Code set
In 2012 Epco produced 3 sets of these balls for an engineer at Motorola for use in trade show presentations highlighting specific Motorola equipment. Presentations were to consist of informational slides and discussion with pool shot demonstrations, and trick shots worked into the program. However, Motorola soon sold off that division of the company. One set of balls was used a couple of times, then gifted to an executive at Motorola, and the 2 unused sets are now in collections.

Custom and High End Cues on the Decline?

When i was young I didn’t really play much. In my late 40’s I took it up.again and was thrilled playing with the original Cuetec with a Le Pro tip. It was wrapped in fiberglass, so it was happy to live in my car trunk. I played APA and worked my way up to a 7 and would still use that cue if the weight bolt hadn’t broken loose. (I also broke with it, and broke pretty hard.) as I aged I turned to better (more expensive stuff). I now see the young guys and older guys, with a cheap butt and a carbon fiber shaft. They don’t care about a “fancy” custom cue, and it they want fancy, they buy a Players decal butt. I would guess that those of us that care about custom high end custom cues are a dying breed, and at some point values will be affected unless a hard core collectors group remains. I doubt they will include players as the collectors.
There's all kinds of players who are collectors on here. Why would you collect pool cues if you don't play pool? 🤷‍♂️
