<p>[QUOTE=&quot;doug444, post: 1871492, member: 38849&quot;]You buy (junk) silver NOT to trade it, but to preserve the purchasing power of the money you already have.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s the explanation that seems to make sense to most people.&nbsp; Let&#039;s say that right now, a loaf of bread costs $1.80 (yes, there&#039;s cheaper bread; read on).&nbsp; Let&#039;s say that&#039;s one silver dime.&nbsp; Hyperinflation comes, and a loaf of bread costs $5.&nbsp; The theory is that silver will rise in value proportionally to inflation, so a loaf of bread STILL costs a silver dime.&nbsp; You have preserved the buying power of your savings.&nbsp; Consider yourself lucky that you break even, or may even make a little profit.&nbsp; You do NOT sell your silver at the end of X years, because you will be receiving rapidly-depreciating paper money in return.&nbsp; That&#039;s the theory.&nbsp; It&#039;s the best theory that stackers have.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
