Any silver stackers on the board?

Silver removes various contaminants in drinking water. Just by placing a 90% silver coin in a large container of water it will "purify" it to some degree.

Yup.

You can inhale colloidal silver in a nebulizer to get it silver into your bloodstream which may have a therapeutic benefit in treating the bubonic plague. The hooker is that you have to have been doing this for several months before contracting the disease.

I guess if everyone starts snorting silver prophylactically (sorry for a haughty term, Brian), demand will rise and supply will diminish, resulting in a rise in the price of silver.

I am not recommending this however.

This is good news for David. There IS a way silver could go back up in price.

Don't say that!

I need silver to stay low so I can stack more.

I remember reading a story about a family who has some kind of genetic mutation that caused their skin to turn blue. It had something to do with a defect caused by silver.

What would be the investing benefit of have a large heavy box of 1 ounce silver pieces in my garage vs. just putting money into a reputable silver investment fund and seeing what happens?

(Putting aside of course the world collapse scenario, where total disorder breaks out, my family is starving to death, and I take one of my silver piece out of the safe and walk up to the last 7-11 open in New Jersey and trade it in for a loaf of bread and a gallon of water.)

Not really an investing benefit, just a peace of mind benefit. For me, I would rather have something I can hold on to, open my safe and look at it anytime I want to, rather than having some ETF or certificate that says I own it. Let me relate it to cards. Would you rather have your cards in hand, or setting in PWCC's vault?

If you're not the type that needs to have it in hand (and there's certainly nothing wrong with that), then buy it and put it in a self-directed IRA. At least you would get the tax benefits.

On another note, one of the objections that I hear quite often is that it's too bulky, too hard to store. No, that's not really true.

A few ASE’s and Indian Heads in the collection but I’ve been purchasing gold at spot or above for years. Nothing major, just a coin here and there a month. It adds up over the years. My latest passion is British Sovereigns. Beautiful little coins and almost 1/4 ounce of gold. My latest.
