    I was wondering people who may ignore gold investing and take silver. I can never accept silver for next three months.

    IT depends on the type of investment. For example, I'd rather put Gold into an IRA for its stability and higher prices... Silver, is great for short term investments and domestic Preparedness...

    Have you put gold into an IRA? I have posted a few things on this and was curious about it.

    I find gold to be more useful, it has more uses like electronics everything is gold plated so I'll stick with my gold ;)

    God forbid, in the event where gold and silver become the currency of the land again... do you really want to pay 1500 bucks for a loaf of bread? instead of 3 bucks in a quarter or dime?

    Silver has been looking to me more and more like a short term flipping investment. You buy some, get a slight raise and sell it quickly, get a little profit from it and move on. I don't know how solid I'd want to buy in bulk with the intention to keep for a long term.

    Depends on what you invest in silver for... for a collapse of the dollar or other major currency? think of it this way... do you want to buy a loaf of bread for 1500 bucks in gold? or 3 dollars in silver? :) Some also, may not accept large gold pieces as they may think they are fake.

    there was a thread here about how silver is eventually going to become more valuable than gold...

    You've got a good point, Garret.

    Personally I'd stick with gold though.... It's just got far more practical applications. Especially in a technologically geared world such as our own. Gold will always be in demand for making electronics, silver though.... Well I don't know a whole lot about silver :p
