I don't think anyone knows for sure, but here is my guess as an amateur non-economist. When the next Fed chairman takes over, he will lower rates...
Agreed. Let's talk about silver.
Message deleted to appear more politically neutral.
Here's where collectibility or numismatic value might come into play. When the U.S. confiscated gold around 1933 (EO 6102), numismatic coins were...
I am a collector by nature, so it pains me to admit that bullion beats 90% silver in certain real-world scenarios. I suspect this is hard for many...
I agree. But I think this prolonged bull market has been a stress-test of sorts regarding what's most liquid. People speculated in various ways...
What I find insane is you can get a decent uncirculated roll of silver half dollars for barely above melt, like the Franklins I picked up. Right...

I'm college-educated (I know, not impressive with 30% having a BA or higher) and I've come to realize that, unless you are in a highly specialized...
I agree - I don't think a house should be weighted too heavily in these discussions, especially since it's very illiquid for most people and it...
Apparently the U.S. is about to strike Iran.
It's possible that we have already seen the peak silver price for this cycle, because silver appears to be a leading indicator for incoming...
You might be interested in the Nieu Scrooge McDuck silver coins from the New Zealand Mint (I have a couple). I've learned over the years that the...
Honestly I'm way over the whole gold standard debate, because if you are for gold, you can just buy it - or silver if you can't afford it - and be...
Yes, you have been there and are married to a Thai woman, whereas I have never been to Thailand, so your perspective is worthwhile. Taking...
