<p>[QUOTE=&quot;zekeguzz, post: 1158793, member: 15455&quot;]Here&#039; more. The bonds are my biggest investment. When I cash them in I&#039;ll be just getting what principal is left so that&#039;s not taxable.&nbsp; Selling the old silver and gold and taking a profit now and buying more at today&#039;s prices is like profit averaging, isn&#039;t it?&nbsp; I figure if silver goes to $50&nbsp; or more then I&#039;ll cash some in and take more profit. Silver prices tend to follow gas prices and $5 a gallon is inevitable. Maybe I&#039;ll buy some nice old coins after the second profit taking..</p><p>I&#039;m retired and depend on SS for rent and a little bit more. I&#039;m at the bottom of the tax code and capital gains won&#039;t hurt me</p><p>too much.&nbsp; Nothing else seems to be making me any money.</p><p>There&#039;s one hitch and a big one.&nbsp; I&#039;ve got a gold coin at Heritage&nbsp; Auction now and it&#039;ll net about $35-$40K.&nbsp; That&#039;ll be capital gains for this year.&nbsp; If I sell the old silver and gold that&#039;ll just be more capital gains which I DON&#039;T want.&nbsp; That leaves me with waiting a year or using the principle from the bonds and that&#039;s all I have.&nbsp; Need more advice, please.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; zeke[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
