<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sio2ga, post: 2680082, member: 83570&quot;]I don&#039;t have negative feelings towards stackers.&nbsp; They should invest their money as they see fit. I do see two things that I don&#039;t like about them.&nbsp; The first is that they seem to make discouraging comments about collectors that buy coins and if the purchase is over a few dollars over spot they stay that purchase (or you) is/are stupid. </p><p>The second is they seem to want the world to turn to crap, for something bad to happen and for the price of gold or silver to sky rocket.</p><p>If silver skyrockets and gets to be a very high price, that will end coin collecting for a lot of people as they won&#039;t be able to afford it.&nbsp; Why wish that?</p><p>And, if silver skyrockets and the economy crashes or the US Dollar becomes worthless, the world might be a very bad place.&nbsp; Why wish that?</p><p>&nbsp;Precious metals have a history of rising and falling and it&#039;s pretty much a given that Silver will be very cheap at some point in the future and it will also be extremely high at some point in the future. It&#039;s undeniable that that happens.&nbsp; A person could probably make some money at stacking silver or gold but it&#039;s not something I would want to risk and hassle with.</p><p>As to my background, I&#039;m 52 and have just started collecting coins the last couple of years.&nbsp; I LOVE silver coins, so hopefully no stacker&#039;s will read my comments negatively.&nbsp;&nbsp; I mentioned that I started collecting only recently, but I left a little something out:&nbsp; I did happen to buy some silver eagles when I was in my 20&#039;s in 1987-1989.&nbsp; Back then, silver was $4 an ounce and I was able to buy silver eagles for $7 each. I still have the receipts for some of them!&nbsp;&nbsp; Now think about that:&nbsp;&nbsp; the silver Eagles i bought for $7 in 1990 are only worth about $22 some thirty years later.&nbsp; The truth is, had I invested in other things I would have been better off.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
