If he had bought one box of every set from way back then up until say 1997 ,

if you take the total # of sets and divide by average price of set when
released you'll get a figure, perhaps X/C (If anyone knows the value of X or
C).Just guessing but I think it would be way below 90,000

entire retirement fund on lego (of course thats what it takes to keep a
large train setup maintained), Honestly I was born a Skeptic A member of an
ancient Greek school of skepticism ,who always valued the worth of scrolls
with pictures.
