What People Don't Understand About Silver

In this video I talk about what people get wrong about silver. If you are wanting to invest in silver or start silver stacking then this is the video for you. When it comes to buying physical silver such as silver coins, silver bars, and silver bullion you need to know that these things will not make you rich. Silver is a wealth preservation tool. I believe that it is a good idea to own silver, but I have reasonable expectations about what my silver will do for me.

Historically the silver to gold ratio has been 16:1 when treated like money. Currently it's 80:1 in the US. I believe there is wealth to be gained when the BRICS currency competes with the dollar in the very near future.

oh yea, the world hates the dollar as the reserve currency and the IMF loans bankrupting smaller nations. I don't see silver ever returning to anything like 16:1 ratio, regardless going to be interesting times ahead. When Nixon took the dollar off the gold standard, it shifted over to being not directly but practically speaking backed by oil, and whatever happens with BRICS, looks like it's a done deal the dollar being backed by oil is over.

I didn't start stacking to get rich. It was to preserve what i have. Also, to be honest it's alot easier for me to save by stacking instead of having quick available cash sitting in the bank. What i have in my bank account determines my spending budget. Converting dollars to physical metal keeps me from spending more available cash. For me, anyway, by having metals, i don't see the cash amount in my account, so I end up spending less. I don't even look at my gold and silver as cash right now. If i had all the metals converted back to cash, I'd feel like i had more to spend. A psychological thing for me, i guess.

I just began my journey 3 weeks ago, 7 ounces of silver(5 coins and 2 separate 1oz bars) purchased during that time. I began for the sole purpose of wealth retention, as you've mentioned in this video. I am slowly putting aside funds to purchase my first ounce of gold as well. I can not wait until I am able to hold that in my hand, as it will be proof of my ability to achieve levels of financial discipline that I have not exercised my entire life(32 years). I am by no means "financially secure", as my yearly earnings are somewhere around $24,000(I do not plan to remain in this bracket for the rest of my life), with 50/50 custody of my 5 year old son. Channels like yours have helped to motivate me, and for that I am truly grateful. May the winds of good fortune favor us all on our Journey.

Take this for what it's worth, currently gold is really high. Wealth retention has a better outlook down the road with silver because it is very devalued currently.

really glad to hear this. what youre saying is spot on. My mom last week was talking about why everything is getting so expensive and I said "its not mom, your dollar is losing value".. I stack as much as I can, as close to spot as I can because every oz I buy means im locking in that dollar rate for myself. Its like buying a house when interest rates are super low, you "lock in on the rate". Sure maybe some day well be bartering with silver, and everyone has little keyring sized sigma machines. but ultimately its assuring my dollar loses no more value. of course once the CBDC hits its a whole new game.. but yeah it makes me sad to hear new stackers spending every last dime, and be in debt using credit cards for silver thinking they'll be millionaires in 5 years. its not healthy

@VincentsVideoVisions 4 ай бұрын

I don't understand this though. If it's retention, how does it work, because I sure don't get it. Right now I could go buy a silver round for let's say $25. The rate of inflation is going to far outstrip the rate of silver spot prices increasing, so let's say that in 10 years I need to sell that ounce of silver. Say current spot is $29 at that time. More than likely im only going to get spot for my round and if I do get any premium it will be small. So let's say I can sell it for $30. That's a $5 profit over 10 years, but that $30 won't be worth as much as $30 today. How exactly is that preserving or retaining wealth? Silver doesn't magically take the money you spent on it and make it immune to inflation. It seems to me that all silver does is basically lock up your money so you can't spend it on something else, or invest it. It's basically a savings account that draws no interest. Make it make sense to me.

It does hold it's value. Sixty years ago I remember my brother buying 4gallons of gas with a silver dollar. Now the price per oz still gets about 4 gallons..

@rikb69 6 ай бұрын

Absolutely, but not/oz, but /silver dollar. I’ll do the math for you in Canadian dollars and litres. 1g=3.79L so 4g=15.16L. Gas here is currently $1.36/L. 15.16Lx$1.36=$20.61. Current silver price today is $34.47/oz. One Canadian 80% silver dollar is worth $20.68. So that silver dollar still buys literally the same amount of gas with 7 cents leftover. Silver absolutely has held its value.

Great video, SD! You laid out the absolute truth. This might be one of the best videos you have ever done! You put it in true perspective. If silver (or gold) skyrocket, it means that the dollar has become virtually worthless, and this is a bad thing for everybody! Those of us with some precious metals will not be instantly broke, but that is far from being rich! If a collapse were bad enough, even PMs will not be highly valued, in favor of food, ammo, and other items. Metals are a hedge against inflation, but historically, if you want to rapidly grow wealth, stocks are a better choice. That's been true for hundreds of years, with only a few aberrations. They can be a gamble, for sure, so it's best to be strategic with one's investments. Seek competent advice for that! I hold metals for many reasons: they make me feel mores secure, they increase in value, they are beautiful, and it's a hell of a lot of fun! But they are not a get-rich-quick method, nor a panacea against economic failure. Keep your powder dry, boys.

Exactly, I have no idea where this idea of silver becomes the same price as a failing currency comes from. If that was the case when currencies failed in Africa silver would be worth the same as the failed currency, this is a logical fallacy. Also, this is a misunderstanding that central banks do not want to be on top once a collapse occurs, they do, and they will use precious metals like gold to retain wealth and new digital currencies they create. The majority of commenters in here are delusional, much like most people bought into the covid propaganda they assume everything will be business as usual forever. In history, things are rarely business as usual, and silver and gold always came out on top. Really stupid people on here who assume everything will be "fine" forever. Soon, it will not be.

I'm not worried. If silver goes to $100/oz, then I'm sure it will cost that much to put gas in my CIVIC. I am merely protecting what I have.

Hopefully the Lord will return before I have to worry about exchanging metals for food.

@figureitoutpunk Жыл бұрын

If that was the case central banks would not be loading up on gold. Why is China and India plus central banks buying precious metals? Because when the planned currency collapse occurs, you can buy up assets for pennies on the dollar while retaining the original wealth of the money. They aren't going to have a full collapse without setting themselves up to be on top, they want to buy up the economy with gold and digital currencies. You will be incorrect. Get ready.

Several decades ago, when I was first starting to make investments, a very wise man told me to invest in collectibles and stead of silver and gold. Not like baseball cards, but and rare watches. I was also giving advice about collecting cars. I worked hard and invested in a few Rolex watches. I also invested in some American muscle cars. At the time I purchased the Rolex watches at gold value. I’ve purchased the collectible cars at scrap value. I think I’ve made some wise choices and I think that buying collectibles has set me a better than gold or silver bullion.

I agree with everything you say, except I would preface that there is still a "Chance" that one might get rich from Silver Holdings, and that would be a scenario where the balance of silver to gold ratio where to go to a more sane level between 20/30 : 1, and then stabilized, anyone holding mostly silver will have greatly benefited that's really about the only scenario that any money. Really, the best scenario might be is if you have a fixed mortgage rate on a piece of property just bought, in the dollar collapses, you could pay off your property for pennies-on-the-dollar with silver, but there's absolutely no sane person that's hoping for this, because that means things are so bad that there are people killing other people in the streets for a full belly... if things get this bad, cigarettes and salt will be worth far more than silver.

That's great. I also dip into buy silver coins once in awhile, because they are already divided and fractional. If one is going to use this for money some day, it is easier to do so if you have smaller increments as well. Also, sometimes you can specialize in errors or varieties, or even scarce dates, and find a few if you buy large lots. You can either save these or sell them back to a dealer or other collector at a premium.

So here's the thing I have silver that I've had since I was basically a child and we have stacks but we definitely decreased our stacks over the years the decades. Something that is pure fact is decades ago when I was stacking some of the stuff really just randomly collecting It had a much much and I can't say it enough much lower value than it does now. Therefore, it depends upon when you purchased or acquired or inherited as I did your silver as to whether or not it could add to your wealth. If you got it for nothing or if you got it at very low prices decades ago then the value of that silver has definitely risen significantly and depending upon how much of it you have you might have gained some wealth. I will say it is very ironic how many people inherit silver and have no idea what it's worth and they sell it for almost nothing.

That is an excellent point which underscores that silver prices in general has been manipulated for various reasons. At least one huge bank has been buying up silver for many years. If they intend to continue this process they then have ways to artificially depress the value so they can buy even more. They may later do the opposite in order to get the best selling price. They have been fined but the fines always only amount to a plus or minus a day's worth of profits so a slap on the hand. It is interesting that Jim R. recently announced that gold will likely go to at least $15,000 per ounce and even possibly $30,000 or more in the coming years, after the present depression gets into full blown hysteria. This is based on sound historical percentage increases paralleling the past several increases since 1971. Where that puts silver is anyone's guess but if that sort of thing happens, silver will also likely increase by a similar rise of 7.5 to 15 times present value. It seems to me that there must be some kind of hyperinflation built into such a forecast, so rather than thinking of this as an increase in value one must still think of it as value preservation or retention as used herein. But I Could Be Wrong -- Time will tell.

Used the ~$20K from the silver sale and purchased fractional gold instead. I made $ on sale of silver generic bars, ASE and Maples. Lost $ on Canadian Mint 10 oz bars (didn't regain premium back) and junk silver. Today it's just gold and key date numismatic coins (lots of research needed here). Silver was a GREAT learning tool and I did OK.

Hello, I am new to this. I have watched so many videos and motivational speakers (yes, him too) on this matter. You are the ONLY one that has explained this in terms I understand. I could not understand how owning a bar of gold/silver would "make me rich." Logically it didn't make sense to me as holding something is a safe is doing nothing except sitting there. This is where my confusion began. You answered the magic question in this video so I thank you. Yes, I too thought "buying and holding physical precious metals is great; at some point in time these metals will go up in value increasing my wealth because I bought a silver bar." As you stated one ounce of silver valued at $1K per ounce would give you a million dollars worth of silver but it does not equal $1,000,000,000 US dollars. Please correct me if I have misinterpreted your information. Retaining one's wealth is the key here. Again thank you for you explanation!

@strangenames6056 9 ай бұрын

The way it makes money just sitting in the safe is the same as any stock, bond, or other investment works. You buy silver at a price well call it"Y". Now if the price increase past the point where you bought it you make money. Say over the next year silver went from your price Y+5 dollars. Not your silver is worth +5 dollars for every ounce. But what if you had 1000 oz and it went Y×10 you can imagine how much that would be. That the idea and dream behind it making you rich. But it's better as the video said to hold the value of your money as paper currency tends to always go down..
