I do hope he is okay. Talk about missing the mark.

We all miss, but he was pretty arrogant about it. He literally said on 10/21, "The smartest people have already unloaded and invested elsewhere. There are zero rational arguments to holding something large amounts of something that pays zero interest and costs lots to store." He also said on 10/10, "Anyone buying right now at these levels truly needs a reality check!"

This has pretty much been his MO in this sub-forum. Really makes you wonder why he puts so much effort into saying the things he does.

I love when they say metals pay zero interest. Silver up 140% this year.

Well, it does not. But asset appreciation is overlooked at your own peril.

Maybe it wasn't rational to hold silver, but evidently it was right! In an irrational world, sometimes you just need to go with the flow.

Scary thought, going with the flow. Irrational behaviour is how we got... well, you know, but this is not the forum.

no... visiting hours at the cracker bucket have changed. it conflicts with my work hours at First Pink Savings.

i remember that post, though I don't remember when it was posted or who posted it... I remember laughing at it. I showed it to the cat and he laughed at it, too. I almost replied, but thought better of it. why dignify that with a comment? I figured someone else might, but I don't believe anyone did. I proceeded forward and forgot about it. how could I have forgotten about it... oh yeah, I know: because I'm sitting on a small heap of silver a couple years-deep into a secular bull market that I read about 20+ years ago. I'm also sitting on a pouch of Au/Ag that only cost me a bike ride each night.

very shrewd move, unloading those bucketsful of silver early. no doubt the poster's fiat is going parabolic by now while pathetic Ag languishes in the low $70-range... I wish the poster well, no ill will. to each his/her own, but the cat & I will continue hanging with the stackers and trackers.

$80 silver by new year's eve.

Not quite what I was thinking I remembered being posted, but for what it is worth, I am sure he is doing okay.

And this one: https://goccf.com/t/484274&whichpage=3#4368552

It's not so much about being right or wrong. It's how you go about doing it. The examples shown don't even include everything he has said in this subforum that seems to be him telling us we're all idiots for stacking silver. I started to notice it months ago and kept quiet about it until now. :)
