Nah. I'm good.
I will no longer discuss politics with you. I reject your premises and world view. I am finished trying to compromise with you.

Gold - $3,833.60
Silver - $47.22
GSR - 81.19 : 1

EDIT:
Quarterly, gold has risen about 9.6%.

At the current GSR of 81:1, that puts gold at roughly $4,200 p/toz and silver at $52 p/toz by year end 2025.

I might be well short of the silver target. There is a historical trend of 65:1 GSR which could put silver at $64-65 by year end. Hitting that $50 target is going to be exciting. Over and above $50 is going to be wild times.

Ok, last chance. I've got 120 ASEs I'm selling. $4K cash takes the lot to a good AG. Meet at bank in BCS…PM me with interest…~$2.50 over spot for Eagles (years available by request)

Just looking at some old threads from the beginning of the year.

This was a pretty good deal. Hindsight always 20/20.

Today, 120 ASE is around $6,300.

Yes, I sold them at that time. Thankfully, I got back in at similar levels before all the recent activity.

Only take profits on stock plays. PMs are a long hold. I did a fairly large 2x on UEC this year and rolled some of those profits into PM's. The rest of that is "hopefully" for a bucket list Kentucky Derby and Whiskey Tour vacation next year. I'm sure my liver will fallout on the way home.

I'm a bit silver heavy at the moment, so I'll probably just roll some over to gold if we can get a 65:1 GSR.

Everyone should follow their own strategy. If you anticipate needing fiat currency down the road, by all means sell when the time is right.

As for me, I've made a personal oath: I will not sell my precious metals except in the face of a truly dire and unforeseen emergency.

My plan is simple. I'll either pass them down to my children who, sadly, are inheriting a world far more fragile than the one we received or I'll trade them for one of the most enduring assets there is: productive farmland or ranch land.

Either outcome is a win in my book.

I took significant profits on paper positions. Sold nearly half my SLV and am out of all call options.

The way I see it, I can always get back in easily with those. But that was 3 years of extremely determined hard work accumulating shares, round tripping options, constantly keeping exposure waiting for the massive spike. If I didn't reward myself I wouldn't be able to sleep. And I still hold plenty.

I agree with you 1000%. I am liquidating some numismatic pieces I bought a while ago with the intention of selling them. However, 99.8% of my stack is divided into 3 categories: pass down to kids, retirement, and land purchase.

I'm going to go sell the last 150 oz or so of silver I have later. And then I'm going to Scheels.

The US dollar is going to last forever, right?

No. So you plan on holding it through the collapse of the dollar and maybe exchange it for the new currency? I guess my ultimate question is how do you profit?

Of course I am. I'd say I'm already profiting on silver and gold by holding it while US fiat continues to decline in purchase power.

Oldie but good reminder of the scam our fiat US Dollar has been. Today's melt value of a silver US quarter is roughly $8.69, or ~$43.45/hr

I think a lot of today's younger generation could live on $43.45/hr minimum wage; instead we allowed International Bankers, through our Federal Reserve and in conjunction with our spendthrift Congress, to steal our nation's and our citizen's wealth.



Do you have enough silver?
