This weekend, Stamps for Soldiers will be at the Coin, Currency, Jewelry and Stamp Expo in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The group will be collecting used stamps. The idea is to not only help soldiers to recuperate the manual dexterity in their hands and fingers, but also to provide the veterans a positive, educational hobby to focus on.

The expo is being held March 28-30, 2008 at the Imperial Palace. Admission is $3 for adults, $2 for seniors and free for kids under 14.

Investment fads come and go, but stamp collecting wins in the end

Investors are getting worried that conventional investing in a distressed market is only going to hurt them in the end, so they are increasingly turning to something that never seems to go down in value: rare stamps.

Stanley Gibbons, the venerable stamp collecting company, recently said that even during periods of serious financial crises, rare stamps keep gaining in value. Such collectibles tend to operate on their own schedule, almost completely independent of the regular financial world.

Autographs, collectibles, and art all hold their own. And the more valuable, the more sturdy the investment: cheaper stamps are more likely to be affected by market downturns, while the cream of the crop stay that way.

Interesting that this innocent, fun little hobby can provide a safehaven for the super-rich. Everything about stamp collecting seems to involve diversity - of designs, countries, regions, eras, collector demographics, reasons for interest, and everythin else. It’s a truly universal pursuit!
