As a member of that sector, I want to quote Jack Donaghy from 30 Rock where he states “Fifty is the new 40 for men. Fifty is still 60 for women.”
Perhaps with the age shift, and the unknown length of the male lifespan in the near future, the MV ownership age is not that far advanced. I had honestly expected the poll to lean more towards the 60-80 group. I still feel like one of the young guys at the meets and conventions I go to. Then again I may just be fooling myself.
Actually, to look at the poll in a different light, approx 1/3 of the collectors are in the "under 50 " category, 1/3 are in the 50 to 60 category, and 1/3 are in the 60 and up range. Interesting.
By the way Chris, in your first post you mentioned discussing this with a long time collector. Was that with me? Seems to me we might have broached the subject on your first visit earlier this month.
