    I have been stacking since 2008, just an ounce every so often. I met my wife-to-be in 2011. I found out she had also bought gold for the same reason as me. This mindset has kept us together through marriage and two kids. We bought and sold an overpriced house, converted much of the earnings into gold, and bought a smaller house, and have our gold (and some silver) to pass down to our children. Our children receive a gold or silver coin in their stocking every Christmas. If I had to start over, I think I would do the same thing.

    As a person who could not save more than $300 without spending all of it, silver has helped me save where I could not. Now its just a battle to maintain the purchases, and not be side tracked to the next cool looking thing.

    • @edb3877
      @edb3877 6 месяцев назад

      It's really good that you found something that is valuable, lasts, and is a great store of value for your savings. I look at in that way too. I never had any trouble saving, as that
      was ingrained in me by my depression era Mom. She was among those who suffered terribly from the 1930s depression, so knew a lot about how to manage any money that
      she had. She was a ferocious saver and a miserly spender. She passed that on to me, so I've always lived below my means, saved the rest, and became a pretty fair investor.
      Thanks to all that, I was able to see that earning a good amount was great but finding a way to protect that wealth from the thief of inflation was also important. 2008 was
      my Wake Up call. Shortly after that I started buying some silver, very slowly at first and eventually 250-300 ozs. at a time. 10 years ago, I started buying some gold. Man, I
      wish that I had bought more of that $1100-$1200 an oz. gold! lol But I didn't have lots of free cash available, so started slowly and ramped it up as I could. It's been an
      interesting journey and, hopefully, a very worthwhile one. I like silver a lot but am waiting for the GSR to fall to 40:1 or lower so I can trade about 2/3 of my stack for gold.
      I'll try to do that in stages of 10% of the silver stack, so if the GSR drops further, I can follow it down and get more gold for the trades. If it moves higher, then I will be
      happy with what I have at that point. I don't stack silver anymore unless I can find a really good deal on something that I really like... like high quality Morgans, 1964
      Kennedy halves, and proof statehood quarters from the early 2000s. Such opportunities are rare but they do happen from time to time. I have a cash stack just in case
      something comes along that looks good to me. Meanwhile, I buy a few ounces of gold every quarter, more on the dips, and am hoping to reach my gold stacking goal
      sometime in late 2024 or out to mid-2025.

      Absolutely understand where you are coming from. I buy very small amounts of silver because here in the U.K. it’s subject to 20% sales tax although the secondary market prices are reflective of this too. But for example this Christmas I had only £300 so I bought a half sovereign and spent £100 on Silver coins.

    • @edb3877
      @edb3877 6 месяцев назад

      @@jkly495 Agree that gold is concentrated wealth. That makes it portable and easy to grab and go in an emergency situation. I've bought gold and silver at high, low,
      and in between prices, so probably have a decent average price. I'm OK with that. I know that one cannot always buy at a low and sell at a top, so try to keep what I pay
      for PMs to a practical medium. I tend to buy more when PM prices are down and less when they are high. My usual buys are from 2-5 ozs., so when prices are high, I
      will buy 1-2 ounces and when they are low I will buy 4-5 ozs. In a real pinch I will pick up some 1/4 and 1/2 oz. gold coins. My stack is all in Maples, AGEs, and some
      Britannias... probably in about a 60-30-10 mixture by ounces. This is not great variety but it is the ounces that keep me interested and not what's stamped on the coins.

      Absolutely and the sole reason I mostly buy quarter and one tenth ounce Britannia's. Filling tubes steadily over the years and trying to find the lowest premiums and with no need to liquidlise them any time soon.
      I do occasionally buy something that takes my famcy but that's rare and pure indulgence and I don't worry too much about the returns.
      I do love the US coins but they don't sell as well in the UK and the premiums can be eye watering.

      @@edb3877 indeed, VAT on silver and platinum in the UK is borderline criminal in my opinion but the peer to peer market isn't too horrendous as any online "dealers" who are VAT registered can buy in bulk, get their 20% tax back and then charge a small margin to the buyers. It's not ideal but it's better than nothing.
      As you probably know, the price comparison with official dealers is substantial to say the least and that keeps a thriving market going on Facebook and the like.
      My metal portfolio is far under 10% in the silver coloured metals anyway and that percentage is only decreasing as time goes by but I do have a soft spot for silver and platinum and will happily grab some bargains and sought after bits when I see them.
      I do also think that platinum will probably be a good medium to long term investment and having some beautiful numismatic pieces doesn't hurt either. This is what I tell my wife anyway! 😁

Maple Leafs if the buy/sell spread favors the ML over the U.S. gold by more than 1%. Also, if I can net out well under what dealers pay for 1 oz bars I have purchased a small amount of the Costco bars since July. I generally DCA each month but may delay or up buys by 2X depending on the spot pricing trend.

    Love the channel. UK based. Just started my gold journey at 23 by buying my first coin a few days ago. I bought a 2022 Jubilee Sovereign at a pretty high premium. My thoughts behind buying this is that I believe this coin, long term, will increase its premium given the fact that it was the last Jubilee year of Queen Elizabeth as well as being the last year of her life itself. Also, I was previously planning to get the 1/4 ounce Britannia 2022 coin, but it is sold out. Perhaps people also had the same idea of it having a high demand in the future. Nevertheless, my next coins to follow will be much nearer to spot price.

    Many years ago I had the good fortune to own a 10 oz Pamp Suisse Fortuna bar. God it was pretty ! That was back when spot was under $1000 so that whole bar was about ten grand in value. A LOT of money at the time, esp for someone like me who didn't have much extra cash. Reason I'm writing the comment is that when I went to sell it, local coin shops weren't interested because it was so much money and then they would have to find someone who wanted that special / expensive bar. I ended up selling to one of the online shops, who didn't value it too high :( Moral of the story is like 2is1 said, think about who is going to want to buy it when you go to sell. Numismatics or high relief or big bars may seem cool but there is not a huge market for them. You'll never go wrong with 1 oz Eagles or Maples, as well as most of the other main 1 oz coins and bars. There's always a market for fractionals too, because the price is a few hundred bucks as compared to a few thousand. Problem with fractionals is the premium you pay when you buy - will you get that back when you sell ? Maybe not.

    If I was starting today I'd stick to one ounce coins primarily because you generally can't beat the premium. For fractional I'd buy Brits or possibly Maples since that's the home town coin for me. I did a lot more waiting this year than buying which was a change for me. I was fortunate that I pulled the trigger pretty much at the bottom of the market twice in 2023. I've been doing this for a while so I'm pretty well positioned with metals so while I plan to continue buying I'm not going to feel compelled to buy when prices are high. Instead I'm hoping for a bit of a low key run up in gold prices this year. Thanks!

At least with the gold, it may go down a little, but it also could go up an hedge against inflation robbbing my cash holdings purchasing power.

    If I knew then what I know now, I would of started by stacking 5 and 10 oz generic silver and gold bars because they have less costly premiums compared to fractional metals like grams and 1/2 oz etc. If you bought grams of gold that equaled 1 oz. within one year of stacking all that and compared to just buying one whole ounce of gold, it does show a difference in premium costs between the two.

      I really like quotations and have saved a lot of the really good ones in a computer file for reference. Mark Twain was one of my favorites. He once wrote that, "A gold mine is a hole in the ground with a liar at the top." From that I assumed that Mr. Twain once invested in a gold mine that went bust. lol Anyway, while I do invest in stocks, mutual funds, and ETFs, I
      haven't ever bought a mining stock of any kind. It's not that one can't make money there, it's just that one needs to know a LOT about the mining industry, the people in it, and the
      governments of the countries where the mines are located. IMO, mining shares embody the worst features of stocks and PMs, so are not something in which I would invest money.
      I'd far rather hold the physical metal than the shares. I could see speculating in some mining shares with a small portion of my investable wealth but that would be about it. A safer
      way to do this might be to buy a mining ETF or mutual fund. While this would cap the potential gains, it also would cap the potential losses to something more manageable.

    It looks like we will come off the "right shoulder" just in time to meet up with the winter doldrum, so I believe we will have a slip back down to the low/mid 1900's right around mid-Feb again. But, after it recovers from that dip, I do believe the >$2K prices are here to stay and will likely accelerate, kinda like the DOW back in the day constantly flirting & dancing around that 10K mark, but once it really broke the ceiling, it was off to the races. With all of the inflation, I think we're due for another massive overreactive catch-up like from '77 to '79 and from '03 to '11, then the customary pullback after the overcorrection.... I'm thinking $2500-$2700 after the dust settles in a few years.

      I like this approach in general but the combo looks like a great way to hedge the risks inherent in both stocks and PMs. I have stocks, ETFs, and mutual funds for growth
      of capital and PMs as the insurance for those paper investments. Both have their function and the combo seems to work pretty well, having done it for the past decade.

And if the people in power do not conform to what the people want, then they have the right to vote them out but first you have to stand up for what you want in numbers and let them know, the first little step is always the hardest to do and this could also mean reforming the by-laws that are already in place for the area that your in.

    I wouldn’t change my gold purchasing regimen. My mainstay gold stacking is AGEs, AGBs, and common date VF to AU pre-33. I’ve never purchased super high premium bullion like the high relief proofs. I’ve purchased some moderately high premium slabbed numismatics because I try to collect $10 Liberty Head Eagles. 1892-S MS62 would be a good example, but overall I don’t like buying slabbed unless it’s a $1, $2 1/2, $3 or California fractional which I guess you could argue is high premium. I’ve let a couple of raw high grade $10 Indian Heads slip into the stack 😉. I’ve never bought Roosters, ducats, florin, guilden or anything like that mostly because I never see them at my LCS. He wants nothing to do with them and explained why. Basically unfamiliarity, odd sizes, odd weights, odd purities and no customers asking for them. Made sense to me, although someday I might buy a Sovereign because I like the design.

    I kinda feel like I did start over. A year ago, "being out of silver" meant I had 500 oz set aside and just wasn't buying any more. Now, it means I have five tubes of ASEs. Silver was converted to gold, and gold was consolidated around one tube for 1/4 oz Gold Eagles and two tubes for one oz Gold Maples (which were already the base of my gold stack). These tubes should be finished off by the end of 2024...and along with two tubes of ASEs, they fit nicely in a Pelican M40. Buffalos are on deck for 2025...and maybe 1/4 oz Britanias.
