Gold is more of a sure thing. Silver has more upside.
Well GD, having an insatiable curiosity that's led me into many hobbies and activities, and a proclivity to take things I'm interested in to, some...
Ah, but the question is ... Should it be?
GD, I'm going by how Scott Travers defines the "rules" of grading. If the industry wants "subjective" grading then they'll never solve their...
