Some facts for you anons:

Silver Mined 3000BC-2017AD:
>49 billion ounces
Irretrievably lost 3000BC-2017AD:
>25 billion ounces
Silver above ground end of 2017AD:
>24 billion ounces
>$16.61/oz spot price
>Total value of all silver on earth = $400 billion

My question is... how can physical silver be so cheap? Wasn't this shit money only 50 years ago?

Lets put this in perspective.. there's a $20 trillion US national debt, $571 trillion of total derivatives, etc

Sow can all the silver on earth ($500b) be worth just 7.1% of the Australian property market ($7 trillion)?

tl;dr Why aren't you stacking silver?

It is. It's what the bankers have been using in order to manipulate the price of silver and gold. They do this through the futures market by shorting. If you want the real value of silver, better have it physically than in paper. Your paper will be worthless in the case of an economic collapse.

NO. that's the whole problem, paper silver is just a derivative. it's not a claim to real metal, all these paper trades all settle in dollars.

shlomo longs 10,000oz silver while steinberg shorts the same 10,000oz and they just settle up in dollars.. so the spot price is whatever they want it to be.

it's 175:1 for silver and 76:1 for gold

That's what we're saying mate. It's a deed but it's just that - a piece of paper. You can have all the claims you want but all those doesn't translate into real physical silver because obviously all those paper "deeds" in circulation are inflated without any regard to the actual physical silver in stock.

Bankers/institutions have also done this with gold and uranium. Bitcoin, when the futures market was created, has also been recently price suppressed by the powers that be. This is why I'm bearish for bitcoin long term. It's clear (((they))) are doing this and have a vested interest in doing so to keep the present system going.

gold/silver ratio will go from 80:1 where it is now to 15:1
so silver is a roughly 5x better investment than gold
with that in mind go 100% physical silver

a roman soldier got paid 1 denarius/day
so 10 days work = 10 denarius = 1 troy oz
we want to retire and live on comfy roman soldier's wage for 60 years, so we need
21,900 days work = 21,900 denarius = 2190 troy oz
