<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 2328373, member: 19065&quot;]Are you collecting silver or investing (stacking) silver? It doesn&#039;t seem any clearer (&quot;hopefully&quot;) than whether you are actually going to be able to go into this is in a big way or not, which sounds more like you&#039;re about to take a huge risk in physical PMs without much reasoning other than suggesting you are about to come into a bunch of cash (the most liquid position you could be in) and may have said cash burning a hole in your pocket, if not spent, before you already lay hands on it and get it into those pockets to be burnt through!</p><p><br /></p><p>How do you explain profiting from the numismatic angle of junk silver? Is it not junk for the very reason that it falls too far below the level of a numismatic premium, and so tracks it&#039;s intrinsic value instead of a collector premium?</p><p><br /></p><p>Most don&#039;t stack just one type of a given metal, but take it in nearly any form procured at the best price it is obtainable at, perhaps favoring certain types only when available for a preferred storage situation (selecting bars, rolls or pucks over bullets, fantasy shaped or poured pieces that don&#039;t stack well and carry high premiums), go with fractional &#039;junk&#039; denominated coins for practicality if ever it was needed for small transactions in bullion to replace fiat currencies, and so on.</p><p><br /></p><p>As to why any one individual&#039;s choice is &#039;a solid way to invest&#039; is entirely dependent upon the unique situation of each individual&#039;s goals, available funds, outlook, appetite for risk, emotional temperament or lack thereof, and so on, and is not really something replicable, nor the best option for others&#039; situations, and rarely ever comes off as clear to readers in a forum (such as this inquiry to your ideas).</p><p><br /></p><p>So are you just here to tell us you are about to have greater spending power, or do you actually have an investment plan that soundly involves silver in some fashion? I have the sneaking suspicion it&#039;s more likely to be similar to how lotto winners blow through their winnings in short order. I&#039;d suggest buying and digesting some books on investing before going hog-wild with a windfall, retirement payout or some other surplus of funds that perhaps inspired this.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie38" alt=":cow:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> This is a cow. Cows drink water and eat grass. Cows make milk. People drink milk, and buy lots of it, especially when the weather guy/gal predicts a big storm. Grocers tend to sell out during these times. Dairy farmers need clean water and land for their cows, truck drivers bring product to market and grocers sell milk. All need your investment monies, too. Just because you like coins, don&#039;t overlook the greater market and the huge impact investing in other areas can have on ROI over funds locked up in PMs. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
