The reason /biz/ favors silver over gold is because silver is cheaper, not because it's a better investment.

A kilo of silver will set you back 800$, but a kilo of gold will set you back 60k. /biz/ is full of poor wagecucks, who have around 5k saved at most. Thus, they purchase silver instead of gold, and cope to themselves, claiming it's a better investment, even though gold is obviously the superior choice. If you think I'm wrong, explain how in this thread.

I can tell math isn't your strong point (not sure if you have one but whatever). There is simply more upside to silver. Silver will hit $44 before gold hits $3,600. And there's the inflation aspect. There's more gold than silver.

In the past 10 years, the price of silver has fallen 30% - Gold, on the other hand, has had it's price rise consistently with inflation. Do you know why this is? Because silver isn't desirable. People (save for autists here) do not buy it as a hedge against inflation. It's an irrelevant metal. Gold, throughout the entirety of the history of mankind, has been valuable, and it will continue to be.
>There's been a larger increase in Gold production, though! The supply has increased, whereas silvers has stayed almost the same!
Yes, because people actually care about Gold. Nobody gives a shit about silver. Nobody wants to increase the supply because it's considered shit.

What is the demand for gold? I don't see it. I see way more demand for USD. The tiny amount banks hold globally as reserve is nothing compared to how much USD they have. Trying to cover liabilities with just gold would be impossible. That's why its almost always been both gold and silver used t back a currency. If gold became that dominant as primary money silver would be necessitated as well just to fill the void. I don't think we are going to go backwards into the past though.

Pretty simple. Silver is mined to a 8:1 ratio compared to gold. 60% of silver production ends up destroyed by industrial uses. While over 90% of gold is used for bullion and jewels.
But it's priced at 1:80, /pmg/ is banking on this discrepancy.

It's most likely between only x3-x4 more silver in bullion form exist worldwide compared to gold. But the price is x80. And silver find new applications every week while it's already the 2nd commodity with the most industrial applications after oil.
And the constant anti-silver kike spamming like you do tells me i'm onto something.
So i prefer silver. Simple as.

Anon, sit down for a moment. Let me tell you a story about a metal by the name of Osmium.

Osmium is the single rarest metal on Earth. It makes up about 50 parts per trillion in Earth's crust. Or, 0.00005 parts per million. For comparison, Silver makes up 0.1 parts per million, and gold, 0.001. Osmium is a useful material - it is the single densest naturally occurring element. It has a myriad of unique properties that should make it incredibly valuable. Is is absolutely essential to certain electrical contacts. Yet, despite it's myriad of use cases and extreme rarity, Osmium has lost 30% of it's value since 1980. What should've been an obvious investment, due to it's scarcity and usefulness, has instead, fallen severely. Do you know why this is? Because every possible use case for osmium can be filled by something cheaper. For each use of this element proposed, a far cheaper, more abundant one could be used instead. This is something that investors had failed to consider - and so, they lost their money.


The same is true for silver - and this is why 10 years ago it crashed in price and has not recovered since. I want you to look at the image you posted, in your first reply, as proof. Tell me, of all the use cases listed, how many of them could actually only be filled by silver? The answer is very few. Why would you use a rare, precious metal for something a cheaper substitute can do? Gold, just like silver, and most other precious metals, are not valuable because of what they can be used for - because there's not much most precious metals can do that other elements can not. The sole and single exception to this is Rhodium, having a use in catalytic converters no other material can fill. And that's it. What makes precious metals so valuable is their scarcity and historical value - not their use cases. Silver has neither of these, and it's uses can be filled by other, more abundant elements. Thus, it's price will not rise.

Doomers and get rich quick poors buy silver and gold.

Nobody ever in the history of the world had become rich buying and holding metals. Not a single time anywhere in all of history. Not once. Can’t happen. Literally impossible.

Most people buying metals not won’t even break even after the premiums for years, factor inflation and it will be decades if ever. Measured against the S&P they will be underwater forever; it’s dead money.

there isn't any reason to not have at least a few hundred ounces of silver, one of the safest investments you can make that has plenty of potential to rise even dramatically and almost no potential to do the opposite in a steep inflation economy.

gold is easier to store, trade, and transport, and is where most of your PM wealth should be.

In 2005 you could get silver for 5 bucks.
It's at 22 bucks an oz right now.
Miss me with that gay shit.
Still buying silver, still buying gold, still buying crypto.

I've asked pawn shops for their price and they offer a few dollars over spot.
