The Truth About Gold and Silver as an Investment

What if I said the truth about gold and silver as an investment is that they aren't an investment? I stack gold as a savings, so most of the negative sentiment about down trends in gold and silver price doesn't hit me in a normal way. I'd rather buy at a lower cost basis.

My experience has been that gold was the better investment for me. I jumped into precious metals clueless and bought a lot of silver when I started, and bits of gold here and there. Silver, to my untrained eye, had the better price point and I could buy piles of it. As I’ve stated before, my grandfather used to tell me, “A good education doesn’t come cheap”. I’ve learned. I’d have been better off buying a few ounces of gold. Since then my focus has been on gold, and as far as value, I haven’t gotten hurt. I haven’t had occasion to sell any yet. However, I will say this, my silver from years back hasn’t hurt me. It’s been a better value than cash in the safe or in the bank. (I have both) It does seem to HOLD value. If you’re treating it as a cash conversion savings investment, I’d say it has some value. It does not appear to be a growth investment in the way that gold often can be. I’ve hung on to my silver. I have on occasion considered converting it to gold, but as you indicate in a round about way, they really are two different metals, and therefore two different investments. I’m not looking for more silver. I bought enough for me to use it how I think it can be used, at a time where it has held its value for me. I have not achieved the level of gold I’d like to have, yet. (If there is a level that I consider enough) Gold takes a bit more discipline to buy, because of it’s cost, but I think, in the end, it is the better investment.

@@jhonkrone3446 for all those outside the US it's also a hedge against currancy devaluation. My currancy has devalued by 50% in the last 10 years, since gold and silver are priced in USD my metals have increased by 50% more. If you want an extreme example look at Turkey. Silver 20 year performance is 8500% and gold is 10000% increase. The only reason it hasnt hit the US is the USD is the reserve currancy and the US exports it's inflation/debt. It's not going to last fore-ever though. The world is starting to decupple from the USD and when it does your metals "value" will sky rocket.

There is NO mining supply deficit in gold. Silver on the other hand has an "official" mining supply deficit of just over 200Moz(2023) and this does NOT account for the heavy military usage thereof. Since 2019 we have had year after year, increasing mining supply deficits IN SILVER of around 200Moz(2019)-450Moz(2023). Silver is going 10 to 1 or better vs gold some day soon. The powers that be, keep the price suppressed, because they NEED silver for all of their industries but the problem w/ long term price suppression is DEFICITS. Above ground stockpiles are diminishing as is ore grade, globally. Mexico, the world's largest silver producer is DOWN 25% in 2023 and getting worse. It really is almost over and expect an even bigger manipulation(psy-op) to get the foolish to dump their silver, a week or a month, before the moonshot.

I collect largely for two reasons, those being to preserve my wealth and to save myself from wasting it on something useless. That being said though, I've come to the conclusion that I like stacking silver more than gold. Sure, premiums are better with gold, but I like the coloring of silver over gold and I love the tactile feeling of playing with a pound of shiny silver. Yeah gold is more efficent storage wise, because the same pricetag takes a fraction of the space, but I'm not worried about running out of room any time soon. Not to mention the 1 off purchases I'll do if I see a cool coin or bar I like, which I can't do with gold. The time may come when I've got so much silver it'd be better to convert a large portion of it to gold, or that I make enough money to justify gold more than silver, but I'm not there yet (and if I'm being honest I probably won't ever be), and so for now I'm tempering my gold lust with a hearty amount of silver

I decided to start with silver, hit a certain silver target and then transition primarily to gold. This channel definitely helped me with that decision. Silver helped me get used to the idea of metals. Looking at the data for gold and silver price from year 2000 to current, both have shown significant gains. Silver with a roughly 500% increase and gold with a roughly 1000% increase. I dont think either one is a bad trade for fiat. Im looking at long term preservation though, with some available silver for small things here and there. Gold is definitely the better option based on value over long term and just flat out weight. Yeah, a treasure chest of 5,000 oz of silver would look really cool, but its super impractical. 15-20lbs of silver, the rest in gold.

I do believe it’s do to come sooner than later especially in this environment we are in at this current time. Only time will tell. It just seems silver is abused and slapped around a little more so than gold and doesn’t get the credit it deserves.

I like how you said that buying gold gives the same "high" as buying a consumer item. I've tried explaining that feeling to my wife for 30 years to no avail. I'm not really much of a consumer. My wife will go spend $200 on a haircut and $10 for a cup of coffee. She likes that feeling she gets. I would never do that but I too like the feeling I get when I invest fiat currency into something that I can actually sell again someday and get my fiat back or more. Try doing that with a haircut or a coffee! When I spend fiat, I get high when I'm buying an actual asset. Or remodeling the kitchen or buying something that actually has value. Maybe I'm just a weirdo but that's how I live my life.

A hammer is a great tool but so is a wrench. Which is better? Well, that depends on whether one is tightening a nut on a bolt or driving a nail. Like a lot of stackers out there, I started stacking with silver. When I hit my silver stacking goal in 2019, I switched to buying only gold instead of buying both.

When I look back at my life, I don't regret not stacking sooner. I was making good money in the stock market and that occupied all of my attention until age 61. At that point, I had been retired for 6 years, started stacking silver and later gold for wealth preservation, as an inflation hedge, and as financial insurance against one of those "Oh, S**T!" moments that come along in life, usually at just the wrong time. 2008 made me aware that it was not enough to make money in the market if the market could turn on you and take all or most of it back. I haven't sold any gold or silver since I started stacking in 2010 because my retirement plan provides all the money I need for living expenses and my tastes are not extravagant. So, with a silver stack completed in 2019 and a growing gold stack since 2013, life is good. Just received my most recent purchase of 3 x 1-oz. gold Britannias and they are beautiful coins. 🙂

Financially I'm kind of in a position to only get some metals now and again. With the gold/silver ratio about 88-90 right now my thought is silver is the better deal. I'm not sure if it is a hedge against inflation but it gives me a bit of a feeling of security, something to fall back on. I don't know if the barter days will arrive before I depart and when things get tight and cash is needed, will the lcs and online dealers actually be able to buy some back. It's a faith thing, faith in the greenback, not so much; faith in precious metals, maybe. Faith in Our MAKER very important. I just like having a small stack, little at a time as funds are available. Thanks for your informed info.

Im buying low premium silver at the moment. Stuff that was selling at £30+ is now under £25. I buy the ones i like the design of. Will keep them and if the premiums dont go back up i would at least get the money back for them to put in to gold.

I would be interested in knowing your thoughts on all of us Au/Ag stackers that at some point in our lives when we know we’re not going take these Precious Metals with us, how are you going to use your metals in years to come? If there’s no one to hand it down to and you keep it for yourself like Retirement, how would you use positively use your stack?

Typically gold and silver will protect your wealth. They should hold purchasing power. However, with the manipulation in the paper markets driving the price way below what it should be. When the bubble bursts, it will work as an investment for gold and silver during that time. That time is soon.

I can definitely see the view some have regarding PM's as savings. Myself, I regard them as a hedge only. Not an investment at all. I hold them in the event of a dollar collapse, so I won't have to live under a tarp on the sidewalk when it does. I'm just holding purchasing power which will survive a crash, and carry me through to a reset. That's it for me. An insurance policy.

I am using the slump as a chance to buy more silver. I am not going to jump into gold at the highest it has been in history, just doesnt make sense to me but stacking silver at lows, darn tootin I am stocking as much as I can, wish I had a LOT more to invest in it but little by little on the lows, feels great over years of stacking :) sold my biggest chunk of silver at the high las year, that also felt great as I watched it drop constantly after I sold it ;) my friends always ask me why I am happy silver is slumping, I tell them it is so I can buy more. my whole life I loved silver, so for ME, it is the way to go. when the silver to gold ratio gets closer to 50:1.... or IF it ever does, then maybe moving to trade some silver for some gold. til then, silver all the way!

I have always believed that gold was money. Silver is no longer money. Its more of a commodity. You cant really discuss how bad silver sucks with silver bugs.

I just started buying Gold last month, as it appears to be a good time for it, and I have 30 ozs., mostly to protect some of my assets, but any gains will certainly be accepted. I've also emptied most of my cash from my several banks, and I'm putting it into 4 week US T-Bills, as that's the safest place to "park" cash right now (and get 5%+ interest).

Metals are a constant. The value is a catalyst of what you use to purchase. The dollar holds volatility going up and down. Also, supply and demand has a play on it
