How Much Silver Should You Own? 

You are exactly right, stacking for me scratches multiple itches lol. Thanks so much for watching!

It's retail therapy I don't feel guilty about. 😀... Stacking silver got me out of debt because now instead of buying 2 oz at a time I buy 10 or more.

I like that, but it somehow doesn't feel right. I don't want to get too attached to it, which i have been lately, spending a lot on high premiums trying to collect all the different series out there like from RCM and the EC8. I know nothing about investing and have nothing else on my portfolio.. i almost feel like i am too ignorant about finances to be in the silver stacking game. Oh well, it is fun, and its the only way ive been able to 'save' money.

Well said

It is better to buy stocks, you scratch to itch to buy and are investing not just saving

I appreciate the comment, thanks for watching!

Same here. Silver and the silver stacking community saved my behind 😃

That's a good way to do it, never pay shipping. Try to buy what's on sale or when spot drops like it did the other day. Thanks for watching!

My broker has a 200oz minimum for silver and a 7oz minimum for gold (or additional charges apply), so I simply accumulate savings in credit union and buy in bulk. Also, this broker doesn't charge state sales tax (9.5% in my state) like most online dealers do.

I don't believe silver is a hedge against inflation only gold is.

@@jrtjonathanwinchell3955 you believe that- but economics proves the ladder

Where do you buy from?

I agree with you and believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don't know who agrees with me but either way I recommend real estate or crypto and stocks.

Yeah!! It would be more beneficial and yield more profit if you actually trade on cryptocurrency, I've been trading since the dip, I've made so much profit trading.

I am interested to know more and invest in Crypto please

trading is easier with proper guidance, especially from a professional, Newbies who are not aware of how crypto truly works and wish to make profits from it, I would advise to invest with a professional like Fergus waylen, It helps secure and minimize the possibilities of losses.

I'm honestly surprised that this name is being mentioned here, I stumbled upon one of his clients testimony last week in CNBC world news

Building a good investment portfolio is more complex so I would recommend you seek Fergus Waylen's support. This way you can get strategies designed to address your unique long/short-term goals and financial dreams..

I am surprised that this name is being mentioned here, I stumbled upon some of his clients testimonies on CNBC news last week..

What I appreciate about Waylen is his ability to tailor strategies to individual needs. he recognizes that each investor has unique goals and risk tolerances, and he adapts his advice accordingly

His technical analysis is excellent and his interpretation/projections of the market is so accurate I sometimes ask myself if he is human haha. Point is, Waylen is the perfect trader to follow for advise and daily signals.

Sincerely speaking. I will continue to trade and stick to Fergus Waylen daily signals and guides as long as it works well for me.

That's a healthy stack, it's great that you started stacking young! For other people, the next best time to start stacking is right now. Thanks so much for watching!

Slow and steady wins the race. I meet a lot of people who feel down because they have only stacked 10 ounces. I tell them at one point we were all in the 10oz ball park.

That's fantastic, great job. Stay focused & out of debt unless it's investing in Real Estate. You can make your 1st Million in a decade, no Question.

@@goodoldschool898 Yes, indeed, and your own grocer as well via an in-home food stack.

Same here! As soon as I started learning about silver a long time ago, mostly from the greatest truth never told.

Half way there from having nothing 2 years ago I try n buy 10oz silver and a 1/4 Oz gold eagle every 2 months

I started stacking silver this past January, I've got 115 Oz's so far. Hopefully reach 200 by the end of this year...

Ugh, freakin’ newbs

Absolutely spot on for every single second of it. Loving it

low budget, mabee 10oz silver a month, it does add up, started with a 100 oz then new goal of 250, then sold, to lcs for a nice reward, then bought a 1/4 oz gold Britannia, that day mastermind poet 😊😊

Good points, I appreciate your feedback and for watching!

After the collapse no one is going to trade food for shiny metal.

@@KingRatt they did in Wymar Germany, they do currently in Venezuela. Time and time again when we see economies collapse, gold and silver play a role in economic stability and commerce.

@@NapoleonicStacking I have stacked so this isn’t coming from a non believer but watching this country decline I have been rethinking my decision.

stack food, too, and trade it for silver after collapse

With stones you really need to know what you are doing.

That's a great goal to shoot for, thanks so much for watching!

I'm the same, a 1000 ounces. Silver is undervalued 4 to five times so if say it does break free from suppression, then we can simply times the price of Silver by 1000 and that's how much you have in dollars..say at $125/ ounce

This is the way. Slow and steady, treat it as a savings. You will be shocked at how fast it piles up. Thank for watching!

That's a solid goal, 2k troy oz is a healthy amount of silver and 50 oz in gold is pretty lofty. I need some more gold,....thanks so much for watching!

That's a healthy stack congratulations. And I'm with you, things weren't looking good before this war, now it appears to be getting a lot worse. Thanks so much for watching!

yeah , keep my $ handy (healty 5 figures ) and 320 ozs in 2yrs and now catching up with fraction gold .. then back to half kilo silver a month again or more if can ... dont trust the banks .. im in NZ ... premiums maples , brits here is $10 nz .. which is about $ 6 us .. have selection of all 1/5/10/500gm/kgs

That's great! Stack on, and thanks for watching.

400 ounces is nothing to sneeze at

@@aaronrichards19886 Yeah considering I make less than 30k a year. I feel I've done alright. My favorite to stack is 90% Dollars and Halfs

I have no plans to stop stacking, all I have to determine is the pace. Thanks for watching!

@@NapoleonicStacking drywall work is so easy to patch just start stacking it in your walls

That's horrible you have to pay taxes on your bullion, I'm so sorry. And high premiums are something you gotta watch out for, I have shifted almost completely away from buying eagles as a result until premiums begin go come down on them. Thanks so much for watching!

No, sales tax here in Australia, once you buy Silver an Gold it's gone from the system and is 100 percent yours

My online broker doesn't charge me sale tax (9.5%) like online dealers do.....why I quit dealing with them. Broker charges me 1% over premiums for shipping/handling, and their premiums over spot are lower than anyone I've found. As for a 'massive' upside movement to break even...nope....all it takes is time. You are looking for a sudden pop in metals.....might happen, but don't count on it. This is an area for keeping up with the destruction rate of the currency. 20 years ago, I was buying 1oz rounds for under 5 bucks. Today, my broker get 25 bucks for them. 20 year from now, I fully expect them to be well over 100 bucks each. 15 years ago, I bought $1,000 face bags of junk silver, average around $4,000/bag. Today, those bags are $20,000......and in another 15 years, I suspect will be close to $100,000.

@@edsmith4414 That schedule is quite an impressive map of a declining currency. Just one of the many advantages of PMs as wealth.

Agree on both counts. To avoid high premiums I look for sovereigns like the philharmonic which normally carry lower premiums, but with occasional sales you can also pick up for as low as $2.99 over spot. And as a NJ resident myself I finally had enough. Turns out my sister has a friend who lives in Wilmington DE and further PM purchases are being shipped to her home. Hopefully you can do likewise with someone you can trust in a tax-free State.

Thanks for watching!

Nice pfp ashton show. I love n64

I appreciate the feedback, 200 oz is realistic for most people if they want to get into silver. And if you want to stop at 200 oz, you still have a good little hedge against inflation or financial chaos outside the monetary system. Thanks so much for watching!

I'm glad you think so, thanks for watching!

40x +

I'm new to waiting and savings I did the calculation 🧮 that's 200oz convert that into kilo's that's 5.67 I have one kilo plus minioz That makes sense having months of cash for bills having months in silver if im hungry Months in food when chilling And months in precious metals for hunting Thanks 🙂👍 this video help clear things up

That's a great plan, there are many possibilities on what to do with silver down the road. I am hoping to see some significant appreciation in the next 10-15 years and use it to help me retire!

Watch the prices weekly too. You get a good idea of how the premiums can change. Right now they are through the roof. In 2015 I bought 20 American Silver Eagles at about $3.50 over spot, right now they are going for $15 plus over spot. Also, shop around because prices can vary widely.

Help me understand your logic. You say you do not trust the financial system and cash, and that is making you not want to put your money in precious metals? I agree with you in not trusting the "system" and cash, but would that not make you want to you to put more of your wealth in PM's?

@@Titter2 People have to be nuts to pay 15 $ premiums for AE's.

@@johnstudd4245 Sorry ya there was a typo. No Ive had issues with the fiat currency system for a while and starting to shift a portion of money into precious metals. My struggle was feeling that slight panic of "I need to buy right now", meaning spending more than I should right away, out of fear. I do want to put more of my money in Precious metals, but I was going a little crazy there for a bit, to where i was going to put some of my emergency fund into it, and I dont feel peace about that.

Having silver and gold as your emergency fund is a great idea. It should keep up or beat inflation. Having to pack it up to sell would provide a pause to evaluate if it really is needed for a true emergency. It’s a small pain to sell, but liquid enough that it can be used for most emergencies.

@@joegadget670 More and more people will just take the silver!

Don't buy maples if you don't want to buy maples. They are pricy almost as much as a silver eagle which I'm not buying at $37-40 a pop. Pretty much every coin shop will buy your generic 1 oz rounds and bars, Kangaroos, Krugerrands, Britannias, Libertads, Philharmonics, Armenian Noah's Ark! Lol. Lots of choices with lower premiums and you no worries about sleezy Canadian government. But I would make sure in your local area what exactly your LCS likes to buy the best. Find out how they treat these other coins first. I have seen coin shops on Silver Seekers channel, like 1 in 5 that ONLY buys American Silver Eagles. But that's a rarity. Thanks so much for watching, buy what you like within reason!

Holding silver does feel more substantial than a small piece of gold. I would hold off on the 1/10 oz gold to save up for at least a quarter oz piece. This will save you premiums. It does sounds like you have a good savings plan worked out! Thanks so much for watching.

Problem with no cash is when / if you need cash it may require selling off assets. I would try to put some money aside somewhere like a high yield savings account where you wont see it / touch it unless it's an emergency. But great job diversifying! Thanks so much for watching.

@@NapoleonicStacking true. I tap credit, but that can be taken away or rates may rise one day. I have multiple lines of cashflow so it's less of a concern for me. And I kind of hope that being diversified will result in it always being a good time to sell something. 🙂but I'm an optimist. Lol

Thanks so much for watching! I agree, great to have for a emergency.

I stack Silver but yeah the majority of my metal stacking is Brass, Lead and Copper. It's always a good investment if bought at good prices and will certainly always be used.

I think that ASEs only come in 1-oz. weights, so if you want 1/2 oz. or 1/4 oz. weights you will have to buy silver rounds for that. US 90% silver coins are also a US Mint product and should be just as easy to use as ASEs and come in dimes, quarters, halves, and whole dollars. If we get to the point where we are using silver coins as money again, people will get educated pretty fast on which coins are real silver and how much silver they contain. Those of us living in northern tier states also recognize the Canadian silver Maple coins, so collecting them can be good too. They usually cost about 50c less each than ASEs.

I hate eagles. Been stacking for over 7 years and have never once paid a crazy premium for a silver coin. My goal from day #1 is how much weight can I get. Bars and billion rounds but I also love that constitutional and have quite the pile. The way I looked at it is I will never get that premium back for an eagle so I'd rather have a melts the same billion round. As the videos from some people a couple months ago showed most shops offer only $2 in that area over spot to buy back an eagle. What a rip-off those have been. Shoot I even started picking up 2021 maple leafs and of last summer cause they were only $1 more than a billion round at my shop. Better security and that maple leaf side is pretty cool. That's the most over spot I've paid for any gold or silver in last 7 years. I want weight

@@Userhfdryjjgddf Eagles were great when you could get them for $17 lol. The good old days.

@@Userhfdryjjgddf Coin collecting has something of interest for just about everyone. Personally, I like ASEs and have quite a few of them. I also have even more Canadian Silver Maples. US 90% silver coins from 1964 and older are also a large part of my stack. This is rounded out by some bars and commemorative rounds (gifts). It does make quite a pile. For the past couple of years, I have been buying gold AGEs and Maples but not much silver, unless something really appealing comes along. I bought 85 Morgan dollars from a good friend and all are beautiful coins. Not only that but the price was below what many online PM vendors were charging for coins in much worse condition. But don't feel too badly for me in this because I loaded up on silver when it was in the $15 an oz. area. 😉

@@edsmith4414 not at present, it's gone down 12 percent in a year when inflation has gone up 12 percent. Shows how ridiculous the price rigging suppression scam has got.

@Billy Mack, Texas Detective it's 12 percent and climbing, they aren't calculating it correctly. Like everything they play down the negative and high light the positive, another form of manipulation 😡

@Billy Mack, Texas Detective inflation is not calculated correctly. “They” changed the calculation a few decades ago to exclude energy, gas, food, rent, and other essentials that people spend most their money on. The real inflation is more in the range of 12 - 17% which is a ton considering wages are not keeping up with this figure.

I'm with you....the prices of everything for me has gone up this year while the real inflation rate according to shadow stats is 16%, and using 1990s calculation were close to 12%. All they do is fudge the numbers and find new ways to calculate to prevent panic. Dollars in the bank are on fire with this inflation. I'm holding onto my gold and silver for dear life.

Three years ago silver was in the teens,.....so there has been movement. But I totally understand your frustration. Silver supply is reaching new lows, world is in crisis, inflation out of control, but silver prices falling. I think it has a lot to do with traders selling their paper contracts to cover shorts as the market continues to tank, and big bank manipulators placing huge buy and sell orders with no plans to execute, (spoofing) which is illegal but they get away with it. Sooner or later somethings got to give and I think silver will move in the upwards direction where we can then take some profits off the table. Thanks so much for watching!

Yeah if I had to pay taxes on silver I would focus more on gold as well. Silver and gold should not be taxed when you buy it I think. I appreciate you watching!

I find it interesting that there are laws in some countries that put a fat tax on silver but not on gold. Obviously, those who make such laws own gold and not silver.

Sprinkle a few of them throughout your stack, but don't make it the bulk. Realise if you take them to a LCS your unlikely to get significantly more than spot for them. Buy them if you like them! I do.

Best price I can find on Eagles is $33 a piece with no tax here in MN. I Prefer constitutional silver right now. Best price is 20x

I like 10 ounce bars in any form. My LCS likes them because they’re easy to sell so you will get more of a premium other than a kilo. When the time comes to sell. And they stack nicely.
