I’m stacking for a few reasons. 1) Hedge against a failing US dollar, 2) Waiting for gold-silver ratio to narrow in below 50-1, and 3) if I ever had to barter
@@SilverDragons47 Yeah, I only keep that much cash because I have a small farm with a few cows and seems like when things break down or goes sideways it is always on a weekend and the people who come to do repairs usually only do cash.

I don't have a specific target as such. I try to keep my metals total to less than 20% of my total net worth but I haven't really cared much about that lately. For now I'm happy enough to just buy liquid stuff so I can unload it when I need to and not worry too much. Thanks!
I stack 5-10 ounces at a time, whenever I have the spare cash, or when silver prices dip significantly. I don't have a goal. I think of it as forced savings, as I can't just convert silver back into fiat on a whim. When I can't fit any more silver in my safe space, I'll consider converting some silver into gold.

Right now my goal is about 500oz of silver and 5 oz of gold. I am getting close to the target and put most of my savings into it. Our currency is definitely in a weakening position and government spending seems to have no end. If I don't put it into metals (or other things), the inflation will come for it regardless
18,000 ounces of Silver and 240 ounces of Gold. Both targets are so large, I'll probably never reach either one. So I'll just continue to buy until I reach my targets, die, or can no longer afford to purchase. Right now, I have about twice the value in Silver, but I am slowly accumulating more Gold and intend for them to be fairly even in value.
I think there's a minimal amount of silver needed for small transactions but large amounts of wealth should be condensed in gold. When you run out of silver you can trade some gold for more.

Reason for stacking: 1. Inflation hedge. 2. Dollar collapse/SHTF I made a goal of 100 1/10 oz, 100 1/4 oz, 100 1/2 oz, 100 1 oz. That gives me 400 pieces for trade/barter, which is 185 ounces, which is 11.5 pounds. Easy enough to carry/move around. Still working on that goal. When I reach it, time to come up with a new goal. No junk silver, I don't want to carry a scale around!
From most major financial institutions the price of silver in 15 to 20 years will be about 80 to 100 dolars per oz. I plan on getting to around 1500oz for my savings. Not including slab coins or collector items.
It’s a security savings for me. If 2 percent inflation is the standard for how much money we potentially lose year over year. The silver/gold is a 2 percent gain year over year.
Some people of the South during the Civil War buried their silver and gold to keep it from being stolen by the Northern troops. Today, some of these things are still buried because the people may have been killed. Some pioneers probably did the same thing.
Theoretically mygoal is 1000 oz of silver, 12 oz of gold, $100 face value junk silver. Theoretically 300 oz silver eagles, 300 oz of 1 oz bullion(rounds etc), 200 oz of 5 oz bars and 200 oz of 10 oz bars. It's fun working towards each goal
Inspiring! Thanks for the advice on how to invest in a healthy way as you are doing. I would really love to know how much work you did put in to get to this stage
I engage in various prolific investments by compound interest & leveraging and as well operating with an investment professional Mrs Alicia Theodore , so far I've attained returns of over $30k last month
I buy as much silver as I can afford. I've got maybe 145 oz - been stacking since April this year. No gold. Maybe if the ratio goes down, I'll convert some.
LOL...100,000 oz. That would be something. You would need to fill an extra room or most of it would have to be stored off-site in a vault. That is over 3 tons if those are troy ounces. I hope you achieve this goal SD!
Stacking silver here as long as it's under $25/oz My investing money is 90% PM, and 10% riskier assets (I do crude oil & BTC). I only do this because other hard assets are unattainable (land, housing), and the market seems to crash monthly.
Silver Dragons.... would you be willing to create two anonymous polls of your viewers, please? One asking how many ounces they currently own, another asking them how many ounces they plan to own? Just a few simple identical ranges for each question would be helpful (e.g. under 500, 500-1000, 1000-2000, > 2000). I would be very interested to know peoples opinions as well as where they are in reaching their stacking goals.
My body weight. 3,000 oz 200lbs. My goal by the time I reach 65 yrs. Done as of Aug 2023. 3 step plan to unload: 1/3 when ratio to gold falls to 20:1 or lower. 1/3 when silver reaches $600/oz or higher. 1/3 to pay monthly rent when I am old.
I mostly buy platinum bars, but do love stacking fractional silver and 2-10g gold bars; I'm not worried about the premium, I'll get that back selling to the public; if you buy large bars then you're forced to sell to coin shops and dealers.
I have more silver than gokd, weight wise of course. $$ wise its about equal. If silver will ever take off a luttle, I'll probably convert some to gold . Price has to be right, im not going to lose on my silver. I buy just about every month, almost all silver, 10-50 ozs. Its my savings/stacking/hoarding/SHTF plan. I hope we see a day soon where premiums on junk silver drop some - ive got 1000 face in quarters, 500 in dimes, need to get more 1/2s but too pricey right now. All my junk silver has been 18x face or less.
Hey Dragons... love the dragon themed silver, i was born in the year of the Fire Dragon. Anyway, i was engaged to a jeweler and looked into refining her scrap and recycling, thisbwas a few years before youtube and long before Sreetips. But i've always wanted to get into "rolling my own" metals. That being said, small volume refining isn't worth it unless you get a lot of scrap, or free scrap. I like the idea of stacking my bodyweight, you're nearly there with your 3k ounces, lol. But maybe i'd modify it by stacking my body weights-worth of silver, in silver and gold. So that's (currently) over $100k, split between silver and gold. I used to be a coin collector, i've passed the numismatic stuff off to one of my sons, i'm keeping the junk silver though, i'be been able to pick up dimes below melt on a certain auction site, so i think i'll try to do $100 face each in junk for the family. I guess i'm also stacking copper? I've been saving pennies for years, though maybe i should exchange those for silver....
I've been stacking for about 1 1/2 years now and stacked over 250oz of silver and 2oz of gold. Like the old saying goes, "You can never have enough of a sure thing", and precious metals metals are a sure thing. Just keeps stacking til death or price becomes unaffordable. Whichever comes first 😂
I'm swiss and i reached my goal of 1000 ounces of silver. It's enough for me. I've got a bit over 115 dollar face value in us junk silver (dimes, quarters and half dollars) and over 2500 swiss francs face value in 835 swiss junk silver which is around 300 ounces fine silver. Around 60 percent of my stock is junk silver the rest 999 silver.
I got three shelves in my safe. One is full of silver (getting full). One has gold (slowly but surely getting there). The last is for my hopes and dreams (completely empty, an absolute void space).
Great to know your personal Gold to Silver ratio, thanks! My goal is to have enough Silver to live for 3 years off of it if I need to. I live simply and so can do with 3000 ounces. Even the 1929 Stock Market Crash bottomed out by 1932 and started rising from there. So I figure society can go upside down for 3 years before a turnaround. I could be wrong but that is my current reasoning.
i had well over 1000 ounces and it became a problem so i sold 750 ounces recently and it felt great, way too much trouble to stack so i have 350 eagles that i will keep just in case.
I'm trying to buy 10z every payday (2 weeks) , whatever is cheapest in 1 Oz. Increments. I'm at 65 Oz. But whenever I get extra cash I go to my local store and buy more. Mostly I buy online due to work restrictions. When I get to 1k ounces I'm concentrating on Gold and 10 Oz. Silver bars.
Yah this is a tough one to answer for sure lol. Everyones got different goals, different reasons they stack, different income levels, different needs for their quality of life. For me personally I just want an investment that I hold in my hands physically to diversify a little bit from the normal. For me its a little insurance if everything went south and something cool to pass down to the kids one day. I plan on picking away bit by bit for life but for now the starting goal is 500oz.
i have no savings. so 4 months of savings is still nothing i have never heard you should have 3 or 4 months of savings. please explain. what is the reasoning behind that idea
@@DrSchor it s a financial safety concept to have 3-4 months worth of living expenses saved because that (used to be) the average time needed to find a new job if you lose your current one.
I buy silver whenever the price drops, I buy it because I like it for what it is, I have no intention to sell it/trade it, sure there may come a time but not planning on it. As for goals, I'll stack for as long as I can, just like anything else, buy what you like to own, buy it on your own terms, buy it when its on sale. If I had to set a goal, it wouldn't be about the silver but more so a personal buffer goal, I'd say about 10 years worth of property taxes, maybe more. I worked my butt off to own my life, however one thing I can not buy piece of mind is property tax, miss your dues and they'll claim it all for themselves, I'd be nice to know I wouldn't have to worry about the government for a decade or so.
Body weight!!? LOL ~ that's hilarious. 😛 I'm nervous as heck regarding the global economics and the financial crash that seems unavoidable and imminent here in the USA---but, I can only do what I can do, so I refuse to beat myself up for not starting sooner.
I agree with you...I too have hit my goals over and over again...1 monster box...then 2...then 3...etc...etc...etc...lol...I just surpassed my last goal by 175 ounces and two months earlier than expected...because of all the market manipulations going on...keeping the spot prices down for quite some time now...like today spot hit 22.26 and I picked up (4) more $5.00 FV tubes of "Mercury Dimes" while premiums are low at this time...and only $4.29 over spot for "Mercury Dimes"...from Monument Metals...smiles...haven't made up a new goal as of yet...but why stop stacking if they are going to keep manipulating market???...especially if you like myself are not intending to sell them anyways...it just means we can get it on the cheap longer...and why I keep stacking silver every two weeks without fail...not a lot...but at least enough to get free shipping when I do...smiles...and every two weeks I look forward to seeing what's new on the market...and or what's on sale...smiles
A 2000 Oz is the sheer weight of the stack became sort of unmanageable so I switched to gold now I'm probably 90% gold 10% silver thank you as always Mr silver dragon
My goal is 100 oz of silver and 1 oz of gold per year for 5 years and just Hold. Now if the price of either goes below spot at today's rate I may by more per year.
I think the answer for that question is really dependent on the goals and reasoning of the individual person. I can’t speak for anybody besides myself. For me, I am a coin collector, I happen to like collecting silver coins (especially coins which were once in circulation, those are my favourite) and the algorithm sent me to the legendary Silver Dragons! If I find silver coins I like, I will get them if the price is right. If silver dragons sees this comment, you have a nice collection.
I think it depends on how you look at silver. If you look at it like a investment then 15% but if you look at it as a savings account then.. it’s a endless amount?
I have my body weight in Silver, 450 ozt is in 40%/90% Constitutional. Now I'm waiting to play the Ratio to chip-up to Gold. Until that happens, my end of 2024 goal is to add another 1000 ozt.
This is a a 2 parter. When it comes to "Cost Average", I'd like to know what percentage of people calculate their cost per ounce even when they are well diversified with bars, eagles, 90% etc or do people do it like me and have cost average for 90% , a cost average for eagles, cost average for rounds etc? Second part - What are peoples cost average & roughly how many ounces it took to get that cost average. Of course for people like me that never got a chance to stack when silver was $8, $9, $10 an ounce it will vary widely I assume. I'd like to see a video about this.
I also have a current DCA for every category I have. I strive weekly to stay under it if at all possible. Recently that has led to many choices. It's just smart spending habits.
I am 15 and I’m thinking of getting some silver for Christmas? Should I bother getting in this early or wait for later. I was thinking a couple ounces or a 5G gold bar.
Question for the community, here... My grandfather left us a coin collection that had some junk silver in it. Specifically pre-1965 Quarters and Dimes (as well as a handful of Dollars and Half-Dollars). Does it make sense to convert that into pure silver rounds, or should I just keep it in its current junk silver form? For context, I currently own zero other silver, and am only just now beginning to look into this as a form of investment.
i can answer that, but i need to know first: what is your plan for avoiding the drop in value when you pay the premium on the pure silver rounds . what advantage do you perceive you will gain by this conversion
Start with 30 oz, then 60 oz, then 100 oz. From that point you will be in the top 20%er (I think). Once you hit 100 oz you should know enough to continue your Silver and Gold journey on your own.
@@DrSchor theoretically just put more money towards metals each month and this will increase the weight you have but this is unnecessary for me. If I stick to the same $ amount every month or set a goal of say 10 to 15 ounces a month it will amaze you how fast you’re stack will increase even with that simple plan
Right now I’m at 333 to 1 lol. Gotta bring that ratio down with more gold I think. That being said, you can’t get enough silver given how undervalued it is right now.
I think that stacking your weight or more in sovereign BU is a goal. The reason for BU is to be valued for a collectors item in 50 to a 100 years. I am 77 and i am passing down as generational weath. I have no use in my using it..
I had a goal for how much silver and gold that I felt was the perfect amount for me. I reached that goal and surpassed it 2 years ago. Now I occasionally buy some, when my budget allows.

fasinating. how did you arrive at that rule.
@@DrSchor Not really a rule, just a guide. The percents change a bit at times but just something to shoot for
That sounds pretty good. I'm gonna take that into consideration. Thanks
The first rule of stacking is the same as the first rule of Fight Club.
At one time I had a goal to stack my own weight in silver. And, I got 2/3rds of the way to that goal. Then came the boating accident.
Yeah I highly recommend avoiding the Puerto Rico Trench it's like a magnet for bullion related boating accidents.

I think the metals market can be roughly converted to stocks in terms of volatility
Gold is similar to mutual fund less volatile less possibility for dramatic upside
Silver is like a bluechip stock clear history but more volatile than a mutual fund
Platinum is like a biotech stock more potential for an upside but also much more risk
Rhodium and palladium etc are like amc and gamestop, more of a gamble with less market backing
Id say a conservative holding would be
60% gold 25% silver 10%platinum 5%others
A more risky but still reasonable portfolio would be 20% gold 50%silver 20% platinum 10% others
depends on your idea if risk I think platinum is more risky than silver 🔥🐉
@@SilverDragons47 it definitely depends,
Id say that platinum has a very clear path for a minimum of a 2x current value, in relation to gold its rarer more dense, interesting properties but it lacks the history of being a bullion currency
Whereas silver would struggle more to double its price, it has the history as a currency but lacks the special chemical properties, it does have a massive benefit in industry usage that platinum does have though
I thunk its very reasonable toe expect the mean to revert and the prices to fall to around
35$ silver

Inspiring! Thanks for the advice on how to invest in a healthy way as you are doing. I would really love to know how much work you did put in to get to this stage
Invest in crypto and gold💯
They're really profitable rn🚀
I engage in various prolific investments by compound interest & leveraging and as well operating with an investment professional Mrs Alicia Theodore , so far I've attained returns of over $30k last month
Wow! Wow please is there any way to reach there services?
I stack until silver goes over $30, then I'll quit and buy other stuff
I buy as much silver as I can afford. I've got maybe 145 oz - been stacking since April this year. No gold. Maybe if the ratio goes down, I'll convert some.
I stopped at 160. Changed to gold.
@@michaelphillips3123 Can't afford gold.
Started out stacking silver as a savings didn't take long to reach the 2000 Oz mark
❤❤❤❤
I stacked for my retirement and am using it to up grade my retirement. My kids want nothing to do with my my metals.
kid don't want your metals? are u sure.
Correct. They plan to sell all of it as soon as I pass. I decided to reward myself and use it in my retirement
@@Arturro-ix2zgEnjoy your life, if your kids are ungrateful then use all your money and don't leave them much.
LOL...100,000 oz. That would be something. You would need to fill an extra room or most of it would have to be stored off-site in a vault. That is over 3 tons if those are troy ounces. I hope you achieve this goal SD!
Stacking silver here as long as it's under $25/oz
My investing money is 90% PM, and 10% riskier assets (I do crude oil & BTC). I only do this because other hard assets are unattainable (land, housing), and the market seems to crash monthly.
Great video!! 😊

Silver Dragons.... would you be willing to create two anonymous polls of your viewers, please? One asking how many ounces they currently own, another asking them how many ounces they plan to own? Just a few simple identical ranges for each question would be helpful (e.g. under 500, 500-1000, 1000-2000, > 2000). I would be very interested to know peoples opinions as well as where they are in reaching their stacking goals.
My body weight. 3,000 oz 200lbs. My goal by the time I reach 65 yrs. Done as of Aug 2023. 3 step plan to unload: 1/3 when ratio to gold falls to 20:1 or lower. 1/3 when silver reaches $600/oz or higher. 1/3 to pay monthly rent when I am old.
Great video !!!
I mostly buy platinum bars, but do love stacking fractional silver and 2-10g gold bars; I'm not worried about the premium, I'll get that back selling to the public; if you buy large bars then you're forced to sell to coin shops and dealers.
Nice camera angles broski
If you are stacking for bartering, please take your tin foil hat and sit up the back - thank you 😆
I’ve also got $32 FV in junk silver (between dimes and half dollars). I think $500 FV is a great goal!
help us out: why is that your goal
I have more silver than gokd, weight wise of course. $$ wise its about equal. If silver will ever take off a luttle, I'll probably convert some to gold . Price has to be right, im not going to lose on my silver. I buy just about every month, almost all silver, 10-50 ozs. Its my savings/stacking/hoarding/SHTF plan. I hope we see a day soon where premiums on junk silver drop some - ive got 1000 face in quarters, 500 in dimes, need to get more 1/2s but too pricey right now. All my junk silver has been 18x face or less.
Yeah, I was gonna buy some silver but then I bought a new gun
Hey Dragons... love the dragon themed silver, i was born in the year of the Fire Dragon.
Anyway, i was engaged to a jeweler and looked into refining her scrap and recycling, thisbwas a few years before youtube and long before Sreetips. But i've always wanted to get into "rolling my own" metals.
That being said, small volume refining isn't worth it unless you get a lot of scrap, or free scrap.
I like the idea of stacking my bodyweight, you're nearly there with your 3k ounces, lol. But maybe i'd modify it by stacking my body weights-worth of silver, in silver and gold. So that's (currently) over $100k, split between silver and gold.
I used to be a coin collector, i've passed the numismatic stuff off to one of my sons, i'm keeping the junk silver though, i'be been able to pick up dimes below melt on a certain auction site, so i think i'll try to do $100 face each in junk for the family.
I guess i'm also stacking copper? I've been saving pennies for years, though maybe i should exchange those for silver....
Great information SD my target is ten percent of my net wealth or ten percent of what's paid for and in my name ie cars home
great goal! 🔥🐉
I've been stacking for about 1 1/2 years now and stacked over 250oz of silver and 2oz of gold. Like the old saying goes, "You can never have enough of a sure thing", and precious metals metals are a sure thing. Just keeps stacking til death or price becomes unaffordable. Whichever comes first 😂
I’m late in this game. Is Walmart on line a good place to buy silver?
lol...I did the same thing...I too have put together a separate box of $500.00 FV in 90% constitutional silver...I call my "barter box"...lol
Thanks for that feedback! I have something I'd love to share with you
I'm swiss and i reached my goal of 1000 ounces of silver. It's enough for me. I've got a bit over 115 dollar face value in us junk silver (dimes, quarters and half dollars) and over 2500 swiss francs face value in 835 swiss junk silver which is around 300 ounces fine silver. Around 60 percent of my stock is junk silver the rest 999 silver.
yup, i doubt i'll ever be done stacking gold and silver...
yeah it’s hard to fathom stopping 🔥🐉
I want that beskar bar!😂
I got three shelves in my safe. One is full of silver (getting full). One has gold (slowly but surely getting there). The last is for my hopes and dreams (completely empty, an absolute void space).
❤ The Baggins round
Great to know your personal Gold to Silver ratio, thanks!
My goal is to have enough Silver to live for 3 years off of it if I need to. I live simply and so can do with 3000 ounces.
Even the 1929 Stock Market Crash bottomed out by 1932 and started rising from there. So I figure society can go upside down for 3 years before a turnaround.
I could be wrong but that is my current reasoning.
The guy with the phone number is a fake Silver Dragons account.
I recently got a 80% Canadian centenial dollar for spot. I like it.
i had well over 1000 ounces and it became a problem so i sold 750 ounces recently and it felt great, way too much trouble to stack so i have 350 eagles that i will keep just in case.
i have 52.16 troy ounces of Silver in my stack
I'm stacking for savings and for future possibilities of bargaining
50/50 gold/silver seems good. It may take decades for the GSR to drop a lot.
yeah that is a good mix 🔥🐉
@@SilverDragons47 Is that 50/50 Oz gold/silver, or 50/50 Dollars?
I'm trying to buy 10z every payday (2 weeks) , whatever is cheapest in 1 Oz. Increments. I'm at 65 Oz. But whenever I get extra cash I go to my local store and buy more. Mostly I buy online due to work restrictions. When I get to 1k ounces I'm concentrating on Gold and 10 Oz. Silver bars.
3000 ounces….Well done Sir 🐲😎🤘✨
I asked my wife where does this end. because I'm so addicted. She told me it doesn't.
Yah this is a tough one to answer for sure lol. Everyones got different goals, different reasons they stack, different income levels, different needs for their quality of life.
For me personally I just want an investment that I hold in my hands physically to diversify a little bit from the normal. For me its a little insurance if everything went south and something cool to pass down to the kids one day. I plan on picking away bit by bit for life but for now the starting goal is 500oz.
how does that work, the starting goal? a starting goal is not a goal at all, as you already know. what is the real goal for you, and why
We've all heard "have 3-4 months of savings" and i do, in silver and in alternate currency and regular fiat
i have no savings. so 4 months of savings is still nothing
i have never heard you should have 3 or 4 months of savings. please explain.
what is the reasoning behind that idea
@@DrSchor it s a financial safety concept to have 3-4 months worth of living expenses saved because that (used to be) the average time needed to find a new job if you lose your current one.
I buy silver whenever the price drops, I buy it because I like it for what it is, I have no intention to sell it/trade it, sure there may come a time but not planning on it.
As for goals, I'll stack for as long as I can, just like anything else, buy what you like to own, buy it on your own terms, buy it when its on sale.
If I had to set a goal, it wouldn't be about the silver but more so a personal buffer goal, I'd say about 10 years worth of property taxes, maybe more. I worked my butt off to own my life, however one thing I can not buy piece of mind is property tax, miss your dues and they'll claim it all for themselves, I'd be nice to know I wouldn't have to worry about the government for a decade or so.
Body weight!!? LOL ~ that's hilarious. 😛 I'm nervous as heck regarding the global economics and the financial crash that seems unavoidable and imminent here in the USA---but, I can only do what I can do, so I refuse to beat myself up for not starting sooner.
I agree with you...I too have hit my goals over and over again...1 monster box...then 2...then 3...etc...etc...etc...lol...I just surpassed my last goal by 175 ounces and two months earlier than expected...because of all the market manipulations going on...keeping the spot prices down for quite some time now...like today spot hit 22.26 and I picked up (4) more $5.00 FV tubes of "Mercury Dimes" while premiums are low at this time...and only $4.29 over spot for "Mercury Dimes"...from Monument Metals...smiles...haven't made up a new goal as of yet...but why stop stacking if they are going to keep manipulating market???...especially if you like myself are not intending to sell them anyways...it just means we can get it on the cheap longer...and why I keep stacking silver every two weeks without fail...not a lot...but at least enough to get free shipping when I do...smiles...and every two weeks I look forward to seeing what's new on the market...and or what's on sale...smiles
My goal is to stack until ratio is in the high 40’s or low 50’s - flip everything to gold - continue stacking
My goal is 1000 ozt. 90% silver 10% gold, and I could still carry it.
Hello, will that be 90%/10% Oz division, or $ dollar division?
how heavy is the lead you will carry to protect it.
A 2000 Oz is the sheer weight of the stack became sort of unmanageable so I switched to gold now I'm probably 90% gold 10% silver thank you as always Mr silver dragon
15 oz’s of silver a month is my short term goal. 10 coins a paycheck and 1. 5oz bar a paycheck fits my budget.
My goal is 100 oz of silver and 1 oz of gold per year for 5 years and just Hold. Now if the price of either goes below spot at today's rate I may by more per year.
I’m stacking precious metals for retirement. Gold, Silver, and platinum.
I think the answer for that question is really dependent on the goals and reasoning of the individual person. I can’t speak for anybody besides myself.
For me, I am a coin collector, I happen to like collecting silver coins (especially coins which were once in circulation, those are my favourite) and the algorithm sent me to the legendary Silver Dragons! If I find silver coins I like, I will get them if the price is right.
If silver dragons sees this comment, you have a nice collection.
What about your body weight in oz? And then convert it to 1 oz gold soon as you hit the goal then reload back to body weight lol
I think it depends on how you look at silver. If you look at it like a investment then 15% but if you look at it as a savings account then.. it’s a endless amount?
Yes much more silver ,prices of silver so much more affordable and a bargain than gold!!!!!
I have my body weight in Silver, 450 ozt is in 40%/90% Constitutional. Now I'm waiting to play the Ratio to chip-up to Gold. Until that happens, my end of 2024 goal is to add another 1000 ozt.
This is a a 2 parter. When it comes to "Cost Average", I'd like to know what percentage of people calculate their cost per ounce even when they are well diversified with bars, eagles, 90% etc or do people do it like me and have cost average for 90% , a cost average for eagles, cost average for rounds etc? Second part - What are peoples cost average & roughly how many ounces it took to get that cost average. Of course for people like me that never got a chance to stack when silver was $8, $9, $10 an ounce it will vary widely I assume. I'd like to see a video about this.
I also have a current DCA for every category I have. I strive weekly to stay under it if at all possible. Recently that has led to many choices. It's just smart spending habits.
All the Beskar!
This is the way.
I liked Florida Stackers, and Silver Torch66, breakdowns on a good foundation amount of silver.
100oz.
Silver Torch66:
60oz- ASEs
20oz- Foriegn National Bullion (Maples,Britainnia, etc.)
10 oz- Generic (bars,rds, etc)
10 oz- 90% constitutional
Florida Stacker:
55oz- ASEs
20oz- Generic/FNB
25oz- 90%
❤
I am 15 and I’m thinking of getting some silver for Christmas? Should I bother getting in this early or wait for later. I was thinking a couple ounces or a 5G gold bar.
no one buys christmas presents this early. wait for christmas, is my advice
😊thanks for sharing 😊
Question for the community, here... My grandfather left us a coin collection that had some junk silver in it. Specifically pre-1965 Quarters and Dimes (as well as a handful of Dollars and Half-Dollars). Does it make sense to convert that into pure silver rounds, or should I just keep it in its current junk silver form?
For context, I currently own zero other silver, and am only just now beginning to look into this as a form of investment.
i can answer that, but i need to know first: what is your plan for avoiding the drop in value when you pay the premium on the pure silver rounds . what advantage do you perceive you will gain by this conversion
Start with 30 oz, then 60 oz, then 100 oz. From that point you will be in the top 20%er (I think). Once you hit 100 oz you should know enough to continue your Silver and Gold journey on your own.
I am in my third month of stacking and the number adds fast !!
fascinating. how do you make adding go faster than it usually does
@@DrSchor theoretically just put more money towards metals each month and this will increase the weight you have but this is unnecessary for me. If I stick to the same $ amount every month or set a goal of say 10 to 15 ounces a month it will amaze you how fast you’re stack will increase even with that simple plan
@@DrSchor at 3 months I had 40oz of silver. Today at 6 months I currently have 110oz’s of silver and 1/2 of gold just by sticking to a basic plan
I currently have about 90 oz silver per oz of gold. I’d prefer to get it down to about 25, but silver still seems like a better deal.
Right now I’m at 333 to 1 lol. Gotta bring that ratio down with more gold I think. That being said, you can’t get enough silver given how undervalued it is right now.
I think that stacking your weight or more in sovereign BU is a goal. The reason for BU is to be valued for a collectors item in 50 to a 100 years. I am 77 and i am passing down as generational weath. I have no use in my using it..
i go with the 80/20 rule 80% value in gold 20% in silver.
where to buy legit silver or gold. Planning to start stacking up. TIA.
Body weight in silver😂😂😂 “I don’t have enough silver, better eat some cake!”
