<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 339958, member: 3011&quot;]It might be a good idea to run some numbers before making a blanket statement like that.&nbsp; $1 grows to about $18 over 60 years at 5%.&nbsp; It grows to about $33 at 6%.&nbsp; And these numbers are pre-tax.&nbsp; Plus, 6% was unobtainable at banks from the end of World War II through the 1960s.&nbsp; Put any reasonable tax rate on top of the interest and coins do even better, relatively speaking.&nbsp; Coins are pretty competitive with bank interest despite the desire to believe otherwise.&nbsp; There are a lot of coins around that have grown 18 to 33 times in value since the end of World War II.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
