    Great video. My wife and I started stacking in the summer of 2020. Our first goal was 100 ounces. Then we set sights on 500 ounces. We stopped counting ounces after stacking #1,000 last summer. I budget buying ten ounces per week or more if the spot price is tanking. Keep stacking my Friends. The future of money is silver and gold.

My wife insisted that I stop stacking silver 20 years ago when I surpassed my body weight of 200 lbs, she said if we have to bug out I couldn't carry that much weight around. But I can't pass up a good deal now and again so it has grown to about 4,000 troy since then. I am working on a 2nd Kilo of Gold though, keep on stacking !

All I did was buy about 10 ozs a week and just whatever was on sale. Did about half in rounds and half in 10 oz bars. We have no 401K our metals are our savings. When wife said no more silver I started on fractional platinum, mostly 1/10th oz Britannias but just hit 2 ozs on those. Don't trust stocks or paper money as they can be worthless in a split second. ... God bless and thanks for the video

    Interesting as others have also noted. I never made more than $50K/yr, even with my wife's pay check added in. But equally divided between kids, wife and myself, my holding puts us all in that 1%. However, I always considered it more valuable to take one's full monetary worth (minus housing) and figure what percentage of that total you have in precious metals. I'm a little less than 1/3rd%. None of it was as investment to gain wealth but rather to try and protect a little of my savings for when the SHTF.

    I purchased my first ounce in November of last year, just this Saturday I calculated all of the silver up and I now have over 55 oz! To learn that I am in the top 20% of silver stackers while personally thinking I was in the bottom 10% is really reassuring to me. I didn't even think that I had that much, but seeing all of these numbers in context really makes me rethink my journey. I know millions would kill to own as much silver as I do now, and I find it insane that I personally own this much as well! My goal is by the end of next year to be in the top 5%, and maybe top 20% of gold stackers as well, hopefully that number is pretty low itself!

      I have only started stacking last year and I own 2 tubes (25 1OZ coins each). Quite cool that this already puts me in the top 20% of all silver holders. (:
      Silver is just so god damn incredibly cheap even though its so rare and has so much use. I really baffles me.
      Even 500 ounces (top 1%) are only like 20 tubes. That is around 15,5kg of sliver or around 13.500€ with taxes in Germany. Yes it is a lot of money and a lot of weight ... but not really?
      I mean it weighs less than 2 six-packs of pepsi (1,5l bottles). And it is around 1 year rent for an apparentment in a bigger German city (1125€ per month). Also 20 tubes easily fit in a childrens shoe carton.
      It is just so baffling how rare yet cheap silver is today.
      If any rich entity on this world decides to buy up silver it will all instantly be gone. There were around 800 million ounces of silver mined in 2022. That is around 18,5 billion dollars for all silver mined on earth for a whole year. Musk yoloed 40 billion for twitter on a whim. All of this is just mindblowing.

It is amazing that only 10% of the population actually own any silver. It is a tiny market. I record all my purchases of metals and mark each transaction and the date to give me some peace of mind. I am in the thousands. NOW, l still hope in my lifetime for a major
    move UP in the price. There is no reason why silver's current should not be in the $50.00 to $75.00 range if it were not for the paper markets.

    A very interesting analysis. I own more physical silver bullion than your calculated estimate for the top 1%. It does not seem that difficult to achieve. Given a choice between a recreational vehicle parked in the front and silver bullion, I choose silver bullion. Mining professor Simon Michaux posits that silver will be in very short supply in the future. Financial tools or "manipulation" will not fix supply constraints.

    Interesting math. Each time you cut the fraction of people in a level by 4 or 5, the amount of silver to reach that level goes up by about three: 50 oz, 150 oz, 450 oz. So the top 0.20% would require about 1350 oz, the top .05% would require about 4000 oz, and the top .01% would require about 12000 ounces. If there are about 300 million stackers worldwide, there are about 30 thousand people in that top .01% level. To be among the top 300 stackers (one in a million) you would need to have about 100 thousand ounces. That's 100 good delivery bars, or 20 Comex contracts.

      How is that any different to the same $20 that became much less than $15 in stocks or just about any other asset? Precious Metals dropped, at most, 30% in the last 60 days. Compare that to the up to 74% loss in other markets. PM,s have held their value much more compared to those losses. PM’s CONTINUE to be a better holder of wealth.

    A stacker is defined as someone who has much more than "a couple silver coins". I would define a stacker as someone with over a hundred ounces, unless they have just started out.

      Let's not split hairs - we can call them holders. Thanks for watching.

    Reasonable brake down! Good job. Plus I happily realized that I am way more invested that than the 1% threshold

    I’ve been stacking since my early 20s. I’m turning 60 on my next Birthday. I have around 4500 ounces. I remember when I was buying a roll of silver eagles for 135 a Roll . Keep Stacking.

    I began accumulating silver in 2021 and felt like I was significantly lagging behind. It's astonishing to discover that I am part of the top 1%.

    It’s interesting what u did as research and calculation ( the silver market is so small ) so everyone need to know that any small entry from big players will be game changers for the availability then for the prices

    How about that, I'm just a little shy of being in the top 5% and I wasn't even trying. I used to do a lot of silversmithing and when I quit doing that I had over 9 lbs of sterling and a bit over a pound of fine silver that I meant to sell but never got around to. Call it 120 oz worth of fine silver to account for the sterling and a little loss in cleaning up the scrap silver. I should dig that out of storage before it gets thrown out as scrap metal ;) I'm retired now and thinking of getting back to silversmithing. See if I can still remember how to do any of the basics after being away from it for a few decades.
