Those kinds of investors often have "interesting" backgrounds: some have just made a killing on the stock market and, oozing the self-satisfaction of a sharp investor, have come to gobble up another investment pie, while some have heard there was money to be made in the art market and want to buy "a bunch of paintings" to start their own gallery.
這種投資客的「來頭」也有趣，有些是剛在股票市場大賺一票、挾著「投資老手」的自得，趕著來搶另一種投資大餅；有的更絕﹘﹘竟然是聽說開畫廊有利可圖，也想「批」一些畫來自己開畫廊！
