Where do you put it? Obviously if you've only got a few hundred thousand dollar of metal, hold it yourself. What about the larger investors. What's the best way to store such a large amount of metals?

Diversify vaults?
#1 Switzerland?
Keep a fair amount in home country vaults?
Keep a bit in Singapore, AU, NZ, London, even the Cayman islands?

What are your thoughts
Thanks

I have a Perth Mint account and they keep it in their vault for me for free, Just buy/seell over the phone or online exchange if you want

>> No.15823409

You must store the gold and silver in a country that is likely going to allow you to sell it when the time comes, because moving around large amounts of physical metals on an international level in a physical sense will be impossible due to money laundering laws.

All Western countries have set the legal precedent in the past of banning Gold and Silver during the 20th century, so keep this in mind when storing in national vaults like the Perth Mint or even Gold/Silver dealer vaults.

If it was me? I would consider doing a Walter White and burying it in an inaccessible area of a national park and mark it with coordinates and pictures.

>> No.15823414

Millions invested in precious metals? That's a tricky position to be in. I'd say bank vaults, but if you have that much physical metal that you aren't actively doing anything with then you'd need to insure that shit.

Texas has the Texas State Bullion Depository, to the best of my knowledge it's the only publicly run state depository in the US.

We're pulling sneaky shit to try and get COMEX moved from Chicago to Houston, seeing as all the energy traders are in Houston anyway. That move started to happen after the State Depository wasn't allowed to be part of COMEX because you have to be X miles away from Chicago apparently to do so.

I have an account with them, and split about 75/25 with the depository vs holding my own physical.

One avenue might be keeping a large amount in silver, and putting it in a business related to industry. I can imagine they'd have a clause to protect industrial use of silver.

the myth about storage being difficult is part of the FUD by the CNBC normies and cucktocurrency autists.

I’ve thought about it. Maybe when the value really takes off. The private vault I store at is very secure quite sizeable and off the grid so I’m not concerned.

Bullion vault in Switzerland. The Nazis forbade goldstorage for its citizens just like every other nation when push comes to shove. However, the Swiss honored private property during all times. And Hitler didn't attack Switzerland to take hold off the gold... So even the power elite respect Switzerland.

And to all the cryptocucks, there is now amleh, tokenized gold on Bitcoin.

No, but they forcibly confiscated that gold that was in deposit and paid out the owners at the government's set price.

Also, if you did manage to hang onto your gold in the 1930s, it suddenly became hard to liquidate at the market price because there was no market for gold. Gold was set at $35 per ounce for like 30 years by the government because it WAS involved in the Bretton Woods system and America wanted to keep it's dollar as high as it could while it printed as much money as it could (no floating international exchanges for currency during the 40s, 50s and 60s, it was all fixed)

Anyway, a lot of shit needs to go down before we get to that stage. Once a government comes for Gold in modern times, the horse has already bolted and the national currency would be severely devalued. Just food for thought.

Yup but say you sold a 100 oz in 1930s at $35 oz.

This is the whole point to buy gold and more importantly silver right now. This is the one asset class the market has overlooked in the last 8 years.
And only because the Bernanke and the Fed lies saying QE would be reversed and interest rates normalized to market levels. But that’s impossible without an 80% free fall in equities

Don't move the goalposts. If you held gold for the 30 years after confiscation, you did dogshit compared to real estate or stocks.

>I think you will find $3500 was a lot enough to buy house(s)

Yes, and the $3500 in gold in 1933 would buy a lot more houses than the $3500 in gold in 1969.

> This is the one asset class the market has overlooked in the last 8 years.

Not entirely true. Silver and Gold had a massive ramp upwards after 2009 on the expectation of price inflation from all of the monetary inflation that Bernanke initiated.

But price inflation isn't directly correlated with monetary inflation immediately given that the majority of your industrially produced goods are made overseas with cheap labour. See the CPI readings.

Asset classes like stocks and real estate get the price increases from the monetary inflation instead.

In a secret vault in our main home/mansion duh. A room about the size of a regular bathroom, completely fire retardant materials.

Seriously you guys must be poor.
Vault is at the master’s. There’s also a built-in closet where we store paperwork and short storage like jewelry, fiat, a few gold coins and a back up gun.

We rarely open the vault, only about once a year to check and add wealth.

I also got several bank accounts where my fiat wealth is at. You don’t wanna know how friendly the female bank staff get once they notice i have several accounts each with decadent amounts of wealth. Multiply that x7 for each major bank, i have about 25 accounts.

Unless you’re a billionaire nobody is storing their PMs in a vault company. Most people have it home in a safe or buried somewhere. Unless you’re a major silver hoarder than that’s a different story, but if you’re purchasing that much might as well own the ETF since you can claim delivery whenever as a large shareholder.
