You know you make a good argument...I have some jewelry that I accumulated over the years that I don't look at. Probably not enough to get a few Bills paid but at this time it might be worth digging out.
At this point I have better than half invested in hard assets. I did see something today that would explain a little. Interesting chart from JM bullion.
BASED ON A RESPONSE TO A SELLER, I'VE ORDERED 70 GRADE CERTIFIED GOLD EAGLE COINS AT A LESSER PRICE THAN PAID A MONTH AGO. Time will tell!! https://www.ebay.com/itm/315596473212 https://order.ebay.com/ord/show?ord...=STRK:MESO:VPS&_trksid=p4429486.m2548.l2673#/ https://order.ebay.com/ord/show?ord...=STRK:MESO:VPS&_trksid=p4429486.m2548.l2673#/
There are some foolish people who wish for gold to go to $10,000 an ounce, but the smart people know that would be a disaster. You dollar would not be worth anything. Buying gold is defensive move.
John Hamilton HERE MY non educated or medicated view..............MAYBE 40 around Valentine's day then probably drop back down to the low-mid 30s. Rate fall again in November, and again in January will push it. But I don't think you will see a ratio of 90, and Gold will probably be over 3k by then. So at a ratio of 80 it might stick around at 3
I hear ya' but I also think that's a Twilight Zone episode, just sayin'! It could happen but I'm at the ending years of my life meaning I don't think it'll happen in my lifetime at all!
Except when gold is real low, like under $1500, I only buy pieces that fit my collections - type one double eagles or minted in 1840. The 1853/2 double eagle was reasonably priced considering it's rarity and gold content. The 1840 gold group took a while to gather, but I have at least one of each now. Haven't added to that in a long time.
Gold bullion, yes, at the right price. Gold coins, no. I buy the gold, not the coin. Melt value. I will not pay a premium for a gold coin that has little to no numismatic value, and believe me, most gold coins only have MELT VALUE.
Please rewrite your response using proper punctuation. I do not understand what you are trying to say.
Plan your life better. Make better investments. Don’t blame politicians, Biden, the Fed, the banks, etc. for the fact that you are not rich or a millionaire. Stack silver and gold as savings, not as an investment. Work harder. Cancel that Premium Cable TV subscription. Stop eating junk food. Exercise.
Are you speaking from your life experiences? I ask as an insomniac zero credit rating Octogenarian, who has lived the life, more intense than the normal! The statements are easier than the actions, which generally I've met no peers! I suggest that voting properly, smart investing based on experience, simplified self-motivated work efforts, personal experience choice eating, having active pets to follow as exercise, a great partner, will allow intelligent cable education, and MUCH MORE! JMHO

Bukowski I am not rewriting anything if you can't comprehend too bad and as far as punctuation not worried bout that either or spelling so move along...
Personally, I am going to follow your Wealth Plan! I think you and Suze are the Greatest. I'm going to make Millions! Millions, I tell ya! I sincerely Thank You.
I've been bullish on gold for a few years now...my predictions were for $3,000 by 2030 and $5,000 by 2035. We might hit the 2030 target much earlier, today's 3% drop notwithstanding. The supply trends for gold (ex-CB sales) are very poor, lots of headwinds. Demand (including CBs but not necessary for it to go higher) is a big tailwind. It's going lots higher. Remember when people would post about buying MS-65 Saints at $500 or so and we'd just say "WOW" like folks who could once buy gold at $35 or $50 or $100 an ounce in the 1970's ? Well....when an MS-65 Saint goes for close to $4,000 people will look back on recent prices with the same missed-out feeling.
I can appreciate a bit of each, i.e., melt and numismatic value - but you have to know what you are buying in terms of scarcity and desirability among collectors. It can be fun and might be worthy of investment if you take it seriously, watch and learn a bit.
What's the difference between gold bullion vs. gold coins, when the latter trade pretty much at the spot gold price give-or-take a miniscule premium ? If a gold coin has a 2-4% premium, that's too high for you ?
