Start Collecting

Building a collection builds character. The idea is to find something you're passionate about or something that speaks to you, and then begin curating a varied, but cohesive set. Building a collection diverts your attention away from consumption-based distractions like TV watching, and stimulates a different area of your brain. You'll learn things along the way and you'll find yourself uncovering gems in the most unexpected places. Collecting teaches patience, discipline and order—attributes that serve everyone well in life. Herewith, some famous men and their collections.
