How much physical silver is enough? Do you stack bullion or government coins?
I'm currently at 100oz of bullion and 40 ase.

>> No.11387307

I mainly stack gold to be honest but silver has more prospect to gain perhaps. I notice that companies who sell silver buy it back well below spot price, maybe that's just where I am. Gold seems to be bought close to spot. Anyway I have 25oz silver and about 4.5 oz gold. I'm looking for a way to store value discreetly and out of banking system. The rule of thumb is about 10% of wealth outside in metals generally.

This. You get screwed hard when you go to sell back unless you can find someone locally to buy from you. Also, shipping large quantities of silver is expensive as hell.

Its not hard to find someone local to buy silver @ spot price. You also have /pmsforsale/ on leddit and ebay. Shouldnt be a problem is are dealing in liquid bullion like maples and eagles.

If you are selling below spot your are a dumbass. You can even sell at $1.5 above spot if you are patient since you would be under cutting local coin shops who tend to charge $2 -$3 above spot.

Everything is a risk. You can get robbed locally, ripped off on leddit, ebay can fuck you over too.

All you can do is try to minimize the risk. Zero risk means never trading at all. In that case you might aswell become a mountain hermit.

Well for starters, never order bars, stick with coins. And if you order from the major dealers like APMEX, JMB, Liberty, SDB, etc. you'll be fine. You can test gold at home using a sound frequency test as well if you want to verify it. I've tested every coin and never found a fake.

Most of the major sellers like APMEX and JMB will give you spot value for gold. You just send it in and they mail you a check the day after they receive it. Super easy.

JFC, is your IQ the same as a potato? You put the magnet inside the bag, I use a camera bag that has a small front pouch. You then place the gold in the main part of the bag. THEN you take the bag, with the magnet inside, and attach it to a metallic object, like a support beam or air shaft in a ceiling or some other unique location. How is this hard to visualize?

Picked this up basicly at spot on ebay from a major supplier. It was 1322$ but I got 100$ back in ebay bucks durings a 10% promotion plus the 13.22$ bonus cash on credit card.
Not bad at all when you can by nice collector pieces at spot because you can literally sell it for the same price the next day if needed.

For me, it's the McChicken. The best fast food sandwich. I even ask for extra McChicken sauce packets and the staff is so friendly and more than willing to oblige.

One time I asked for McChicken sauce packets and they gave me three. I said, "Wow, three for free!" and the nice friendly McDonald's worker laughed and said, "I'm going to call you 3-for-free!".

Now the staff greets me with "hey it's 3-for-free!" and ALWAYS give me three packets. It's such a fun and cool atmosphere at my local McDonald's restaurant, I go there at least 3 times a week for lunch and a large iced coffee with milk instead of cream, 1-2 times for breakfast on the weekend, and maybe once for dinner when I'm in a rush but want a great meal that is affordable, fast, and can match my daily nutritional needs.

I even dip my fries in McChicken sauce, it's delicious! What a great restaurant.
