As a millennial who still collects Pokémon cards, I hate seeing the prices get driven up, but I can’t say I’m surprised. We walked so Gen Z could run (to eBay and overpay for PSA-graded singles)
I've insisted my Gen Z kids keep all concert tees (because I gave away all of mine after college when I thought I had to 'grow up'), their Pokemon cards and my daughter's American Girl dolls/clothes/furniture. Even if they don't make money, their kids might want it. Yes, I still have my Growing Up Skipper and vintage Barbie case at my parent's home, why do you ask?
Love this Gaming version of your newsletter. Gaming and its community across all ages has been such a sleeper that companies still don't properly know how to partner with it. Barring some Wendy's / Mentos activations on Fortnite and Xbox's everyday tactician, I feel that there is such an opportunity with this area.
Youth sports are huge for Gen Z and Gen Alpha. Not even talking IMG, just playing normal, somewhat competitive sports is hard to do nowadays. There are fewer rec leagues for local kids. At least in NYC it’s possible to spend thousands in fees and other costs, without trying to get your kid a scholarship or buying status mitts/equipment.
Nothing beats level-setting expectations on a Jet2 Holiday to Europe! If I wasn't struggle busing while on the plane to gate buses, I too could have done this meme
