You are mathematically correct, but I still like bld522's approach and do it myself. In the face of unknown conditions, I hedge my bets. I have...
Great post. I violate nearly every dang tenet, but that doesn't mean you are not completely correct. :)
I agree with your thoughts on the weakness of the Fed, but disagree on the tech boom and the ability of the Fed to recreate another boom. What did...
Just a point of clarification and defense of those people sir, (I did not vote). Let me ask you a question. If someone in Bulgaria strikes a...
I guess I disagree slightly sir. First, there have been asset bubbles cycling through the economy forever, its just the tech stock and housing...
Or metal die strikes. Perfectly legitimate answer, and even a little more "foggy".
Really? You are saying asset bubbles are from here on out extinct? Whew, that is a load off my mind then. ;) Btw the housing bubble did not...
I would add to Jim's response its human nature to complain. Ask any expert and they will tell you an unhappy customer will tell at least 10 times...

I agree only if coupled with where and how you place it. The best safe in the world is not that good if unbolted in the middle of a room. The...
I understand they are under cost pressure sir, all companies are. However, are they under such cost pressures for commemoratives? That is what...
The only concern I would have would be having guns and coins in the same space. Some chemicals used on guns aren't the greatest for coins. My...

Only one small comment sir. Btw I really do appreciate you coming here to discuss these issues with us. It helps a lot. So, my main concern...
That is fair sir, but always be ready to pull the trigger if you really believe you know something. I use PM as a hedge too, but if it skyrocketed...
I do not think I have ever lost a coin within the US. I have only ever lost them coming from overseas. Half the time, if its obvious, the USPS...
Good article, thanks for posting. Makes you stop and think. I had read similar lately, which is why in the end I moved bullion and higher end...
1000% agree. Unless there is some kind of extraordinary tax situation, "its ok if it goes down since I am ahead" is a bad psychology to get into....
US consumers with a total revolving debt of over $800 billion paying on average about 12.8% interest kind of tells me we borrow a LOT regardles of...
True, and its probably the greatest shortfall of ancient coinage. However, most ancient coins were bullion, so always worth their weight in PM at...
