How Much Faith Do You Put In Grades From Slabbed Coins

Conder101 that is funny! I wish I could express how funny I found that comment and how much I agreed with your sentiment!

I read a lot of negativity over T.P.G. coins, however, just think for a second that we are all Mortals. Our death can come in a very untimely fashion and most coin collectors do not have any next of kin to leave their collection to. Simple reason is that this Hobby is slowly dying and the next Generations coming up can't afford to partake in The Hobby of Kings! Kids today are more interested in Facebook, texting, X-Box 360, and doing drugs.
Therefore, this is why I stress T.P.G. graded coins are important, so who ever takes possession of your Hobby once you kick the bucket will have an easier time in deciphering what your Collection is worth. You would roll over in your grave if your next of Kin was given a fraction of what your collection was worth by a con-artist dealer.
And we all know there are lots of them around just waiting to prey on the misinformed.
So for a few bucks, it would be worth your while to slab your piece(s) if it has any value, at least this way when you are 6' under You can R.I.P.

I see that in a few places that posters have mentioned the "top 3 TPGs". What are the top 3? Because when I buy a slabbed coin (which is seldom)I look for NGC or PCGS. Also, I have seen a lot of slabs from ANACS, but have only purchased one and I cracked it out for a Dansco Walking Liberty book.
