Its largely true especially in this environment. However the price would change against another commodity and the value that gold buys will also fluctuate with the availability of other commodities. However point taken. Gold is measuring the fall of the $USD. not really rising itself.

@johngalt5166 Месяц назад

I am not actually confident that silver will gain significant value, but I still like silver because I AM confident the dollar will lose value 😅 So I guess in a sense it is almost inevitable that silver will be triple digits considering inflation (assuming technology doesn’t make it obsolete.) The question is just how much stronger silver will actually get as far as buying power/real value.

There is more silver as a by-product than will ever be used before tech renders it less needed. The largest mine ever discovered was found and kept secret. They aren't mining it - WHY? The AISC research will show you they only produce it when they want to. $14 to $23 an oz. and they are lying

I think of gold as stocks and silver as bonds. Both may perform differently at different times. Silver tends to do well when the ecomony is hot and gold when the ecomony is down although that hasn't been the case in 2023 with both metals performing well. But it's good to own both as you don't know what's going to happen in any given year and there is always the off chance that silver may spike in value.

In my opinion, it's better to lean heavier into stacking gold because buying silver is too easy, and therefore, allows for more stupid purchases (talking about myself here, of course.). Due to the simple fact of pricing, buying gold reinforces the need for more discipline and a great deal of thoughtfulness, when considering the outlay of significant fiat. For these reasons and others, I even prefer platinum over silver. Them premiums always scream loudly, though, definitely need to consider that opportunity cost. Thankfully, my LCS doesn't charge an arm and a leg for platinum, and sure beats out any online dealer when it comes to gold. Oh yeah, not to mention weight considerations. Sure don't need much of that gold stuff to have real value.

So many still talk of gold in terms of investment. It is possible to “invest” in anything if you can sell it for a profit, I suppose. That is not the point. We use too many cliches. The modern world loves cliches. Not an independent thought among them. But I digress. Gold is gold. It can be “sold” for money, exchanged for various currencies of differing values, in which case you’d be speculating in the currency markets. It can be exchanged for goods, so you could say you can “buy” things with it. The truth is, many of us get into the bad habit of discussing gold in relationship to a US dollar, and end up straying down the road of monetary value. Gold is above and beyond its relationship to currencies. A man with gold can sit down and talk about his wants and needs.

If you buy silver in the UK you pay tax on it, people buy it from Europe where you don't. A lot of people buy it in bulk and copy what dealers do, sell it with the tax added Both silver and gold are used in circuit boards so both are industrial metals I find it is easier to sell gold than silver to dealers, privately both have merit. When gold goes up in value it can be by a big margin, when silver goes up it can be a small margin. They both can go up by the same percentage, the numbers do not make this obvious. I would not be surprised if landfills are dug up and ewaste is extracted to get both metals out.

Thank you for my daily dose of Gold/Silver common sense. Agree that you should buy both always! 😉 Yukon Cornelius wasn't picky, he loved them both! 😁

I bought gold and silver in 2016- today but my bulk purchase was in 2016-2017 I decided to hedge my PM's purchase with Bitcoin. I made 80% in 8 years on gold and silver and 1,300% with bitcoin in 7 years. Best hedge In the world and I used BTC to buy more pm's with rolling profits.

I don't understand Bitcoin so it's not for me right now. I like your strategy, how you're using your profits from it to buy PMs so it's not just some theoretical abstract money. Smart move imo.

I lost interest in silver pretty damn quick when I started stacking

@JakeLawry Месяц назад

I would say if you have spare cash get that gold stack first. If you don’t have as much spare cash. Start the silver stack. Better to stack something instead of throwing money away. Silver peak was what 49? So atm in the uk it is at 25-28. Therefore it does have room to grow but I would always go with the safest one first . Here in the uk that is gold and probably always will be

How do you reconcile against the above ground stock piles of silver half of that of gold?

I have heard pre 33 gold numismatics are "collectors items" and are extended certian protections and considerations. What about pre 1921 Morgans? ...they and the Walkers and Peace Dollars are more aesthetically pleasing to my eye, but what does the community at large think of these vs 3 9s??

I keep my stack at 100/1. One ounce of gold to 100 ounces of silver.

@DanCooper404 Месяц назад

Smart. That's not far off the gold/silver ratio, and gives you flexibility.

@fu4616 Месяц назад

I'm at 23/1.... I need more gold 🥸

@edb3877 Месяц назад

ATM, my silver to gold ratio is very close to 82:1. I'd like to lower this to around 60:1 via selling some silver and buying some gold with the cash.

@@edb3877 I don’t ever see the 60-1 ratio again. We just shortly touched 76 till it went back up to 80

Personally, I find the entire argument of gold vs. silver to be silly. That's like saying, which tool is better, a hammer or a wrench? Well, that depends on what you're doing and so does the question of gold OR silver. I like both metals and I own both metals. Did I go overboard on silver? Probably. But then, a lot of my silver stack was bought in the $15-$16 per oz. range, so I'm not feeling any pain there. Given the right situation, I would trade (actually sell silver and buy gold) silver for gold. But the numbers have to be favorable for that to work. I have no problem holding my PMs or passing them down to my heirs, so no issue there. Another silver squeeze? Yes, please. 🙂

@2is1gold Месяц назад

A silver squeeze that worked would be something!

@edb3877 Месяц назад

@@2is1gold Indeed it would! I'm sure that when, not if, one occurs, it won't be around for long, so sell into it quickly. 😀

I’m in the “buy both category”. Never bad to have each. Which one would I want to have to buy a gallon of milk in a time of need? Which one to buy the whole cow?
