<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikem2000, post: 1652233, member: 30574&quot;]Sorry, but this is just wrong. Nickels are not a FREE investment and you can lose.&nbsp; This is also a pet peeve of mine.</p><p><br /></p><p>First I will admit it is POSSIBLE to make some money, but a lot of things need to align for that to happen.&nbsp; I will not get into that now since it is not the point of the post.</p><p><br /></p><p>The point is that our currancy is not designed to hold for the long term.&nbsp; Our system and currency works best with mild inflation.&nbsp; You can expect inflation and need to plan on it.&nbsp; When you hoard cash and are getting 0 return on your money, you are NOT BREAKING EVEN.&nbsp; You are LOSING BUYING POWER.&nbsp; If you are holding an investment that is&nbsp; keeping up with infaltion.&nbsp; THAT IS BREAKING EVEN.&nbsp; So the bottom line is, if you have hoarded nickels for 30 years, and they are still just worth face value.&nbsp; You have LOST a butt load of money.&nbsp; There was nothing free about it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
