I’ve been stacking for about a decade now. Mostly silver….I stack/buy my silver through my own two ways. I scrap metal (aluminum, copper, brass and light….heavy metal). I kinda get into it and look around my local area for people placing items out by the curb. If I see the people near their house I ask ….is it OK for me to take this ….and sometimes I luck out and they say… “just a minute I got something else”. The second way I save up some money for silver is I have a metal detector and any basic change that I find I tumble it and clean it bring it to the bank and turn it into $20 bills that I convert that to my silver stack. >Wayne

Just a little over a year ago I was holding my very first 1 oz. silver Maple. And I thought, “damn, this is going to take forever...”. Well, I don’t have a lot, but I am up to approx. 170oz (among collecting gold, copper, and industrial metals for fun). Basically, what I am saying don’t get discouraged starting small. Just start, that’s what’s important. I’m 42 and wish I got into this game a long time ago.

I'm stuck in that mindset that I need to save my fiat currency. Most of it comes from owning a business and needing liquidity. BUT that being said... I still make myself convert some to precious metals every month, sometimes a few times a month depending on the deal I'm getting. It helps me have the confidence that I have those hard assets but also have the liquidity that I need. It's really became a savings account for me and I love to save this way.

I am 34 years old been wanting to invest in my future/retirement via purchasing physical silver for quite some time. Looked into it several times over the years but always bottled it. Finally bit the bullet early this month and got 2 x 1oz silver coins from the Royal Mint. I am now hooked I have now acquired 15oz in silver in less than a month. I am buying cool design coins/collections as opposed to eagles, brits, maples etc at the moment(I will get into those at some point for now I am just having fun). It may not be the most cost effective way to do it but I have always enjoyed collecting things so I want to make this fun so that I keep buying some every time I get paid. I don't really have an end game in mind I am just looking at it as an alternative method of saving, I still save fiat currency in a savings account and also crypto. I want to collect up a nice stash to help protect my wealth against inflation and also as a possible retirement it needed pot. I hope I never have to liquidate it and I earn enough that I can simply keep my stash pass it on one day to my children. These videos are great been watching loads and it has really encouraged me to want to collect more and convinced me I am doing something that will one day be beneficial to either me or my family. In my very very limited experience what I am trying to say is It's never too late to start, average it out each month when you get paid just buy what you can afford also save some fiat for quick access to cash funds in emergencies (The money I have left to save after my expenses I am splitting between fiat savings, crypto and silver) and lastly have fun with it that way you will be more likely to keep at it long term.

I’m curious why you say that if you’ve only stacked for a year. If you’ve been dollar cost averaging with your purchases, aren’t you planning to see a ROI in 10/15/20 years’ time? Are you planning to sell your silver soon or are you buying to hold long term like most stackers? Not being sarcastic-my questions are sincere. I began stacking at the start of 2021 and while no one on the planet knows what will happen with spot price, I expect to witness silver go to $40 or $50 an ounce in my lifetime. If not, I’ll let me kids deal with my stack.

Silver Dragon, I've been presented with a company called 7K. You might know about it. It's like a pyramid silver company. I am not interested in joining their team, however, I am curious why they say the numismatic coins they buy and sell are worth so much. They pay a lot for each coin to start with, maybe $120 for one, but they claim the value increases quickly compared to other silver coins such as $15-$30 in value within a year. Is this true? What do you say about Numismatic coins? Are they worth the investment? When I see that the current silver rate is approx. $23, I find it hard to believe they are really making so much. Seems to me in the end it's a ripoff. Thank you for any comments and advice.
