    In 2017 you could have bought 1 bitcoin for the same price as that gold Britannia and sold it for over 40k, its all too easy to look back at something with regrets but i would advise stacking slowly with only a focus on some distant future when your silver will be there for a purpose.
    I watched a vid a few days ago and they were explaining stacking as a way of saving energy, looking at each ounce as a little battery, i personally work all week and buy a coin, that coin is some of the labour i put into that week. the coin is my way of saving some of that weeks energy that i can call upon at some other time in my life, the coin i buy this week might be sold in my retirement and it will have worked like a battery, holding on to that little portion of this weeks hard work, the energy i get out at the other end may be more than i put in, it may be less but it will be something, i dont put my beloved silver under any expectations or pressures to perform, i love it just the way it is.

    I just buy it when I have an extra $200. Once you hit 1000 ounces you just have to smile that your work equity is protected by your metals. Does it really matter if the price is up or down I think not everything goes up eventually, just look at history and relax. I stack for long term not trying to turn a profit just protecting my money in metals. If you trip out on the prices everyday you will only drive yourself nutz. Lol

    If you are stacking for long term, dollar cost average is fine, and a great way to accumulate wealth
    If you are stacking to make money, you better understand the fundamentals-especially price range.
    Last year when silver dropped below $18 usd and i could get 100oz bars at $1.99/oz over spot , i bought. Then it went up to $26 usd/oz and I sold
    My only regret is initially not understanding the massive scale one would need to invest with to make good roi. If you want to make thousands, you need thousands of ounces of silver. If you want to make 10s of thousands. . . . Well, do the math.
