[QUOTE="EagleEyed, post: 60895, member: 3261"]"The government authorizes..." "The government allows you to own..." These two phrases should scare the heck out of anyone who chooses to prepare for the future by owning precious metals. If the government allows you to own them today, they can disallow you to own them tomorrow, paying you whatever, if anything, they feel like for them. Please also be aware that the freezing of safety deposit boxes is well within the government's power. They confiscated gold before and can do it again. I don't think silver will be confiscated because it has too many industrial uses. That could be wishful thinking on my part though. It is reportable only if someone knows who you are when you buy it. Deal with amounts under $10,000 at a time and do not brag about it. It might be a good idea to buy gold and silver with cash and not give the dealer your name. Just remember, when the time comes, and it will eventually come, that some nice man from the government asks you where your precious metals are, say, "oh, I sold those for less than I paid for them to some guy a few years ago. I don't know where he lives, I met him at a bar. I think his name was Bill." Really, I am not a paranoid whackjob. :)[/QUOTE]
