<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Clawcoins, post: 2562448, member: 77814&quot;]I&#039;m contemplating, when the prices are favorable, in investing (for the long haul) in either silver American Eagles (probably in quantity of 5 or 6 per purchase depending upon price) or in 1/10th Gold Eagles, which would be an equivalent price for this discussion.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now the only initial advantage I see in gold is equivalent storage space.</p><p><br /></p><p>A 1/10th AGE tube holds 50 whereas an ASE holds 20 1oz.</p><p>thus at current prices 1 tube of 50 AGE 1/10ths would be equivalent to 17 tubes of 20 ASEs.</p><p><br /></p><p>Quite the storage space difference.</p><p><br /></p><p>But in the long haul, looking back at trending history, which would be better to own and thus <u>SELL in the future</u>. <b><i>Selling more ASEs may equate to a larger potential profit versus fewer AGEs</i></b>?? seems to be the question at hand.&nbsp; Yes I&#039;m asking about your magic future predicting powers here, but only looking back at history.</p><p><br /></p><p>Excluding concepts that PMs are potential losing factors once inflation, etc are factored in as If I included emergency CASH which is always a $1 to $1 factor irrelevant of inflation, and Ag/Au varies with a longer term increase in valuation versus Cash (is my thinking); thus the reason I&#039;m thinking of PMs in addition Cash in the SafeDepositBox. </p><p><br /></p><p>Also, No need financial recommendations as I have Gov&#039;t bonds, moneymarket, gov&#039;t retirement bonds, stocks, retirement accts and other various investments that I&#039;m always working on.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course there&#039;s add&#039;l cost for a larger SDB but let&#039;s leave that out of the equation for now (yeah, yeah, it should be calculated in there for a 20 yr hold or whatever as it is an expense but I keep other things in there anyways, but I just want a general idea of people&#039;s concepts).</p><p><br /></p><p>Either way, It&#039;ll take me a long time to fill one tube of 1/10th AGEs assuming one per month maximum, but it will even save storage space versus cash.&nbsp; And I want to keep a small SDB versus maybe needing a larger one for ASEs.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is for tube BUs, nothing slabbed, nothing Proof which is add&#039;l over BU.</p><p><br /></p><p>What are peoples thoughts on it for the long haul?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
