There are stamp collectors of all types. Some collectors are quite serious and collect stamps as an investment. However, most stamp collectors collect stamps just for the fun of gathering them. You can begin collecting with little or no money just by getting stamps off of your everyday mail. This sometimes can be the most fun way of collecting as you just never know what type of stamps are going to show up.
