You wouldn't happen to be a boomer would ya?

Nope, proud Gen X-er here.

Although, strangely enough, my older brother who is only three years older than I am is technically a boomer. Funny how those generation things work.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got to go see a man about a zebra anticipatory linguini pattern so I can tell what to wear as I go back outside to do more shoveling.

Proud gen X'er here too, but I could swear you were a boomer, as gen X tend to be a little more (sometimes alot more) savvy about technical things.. Are you sure you're not born on the "eve" of gen X


Okay so about my boomer coworker friend, sweetheart of a lovable guy, but he doesn't keep up with or follow anything. Worked at the same job at the phone company, did the same thing for 35 years. Retired and works with us now waiting for his SS.

He has No idea about silver, or gold, or coins or stocks, or tech, or even anything going on in the world. Whether it be the economy and how it works, or geopolitics, nothing, not a clue. Spends too much time scrolling TiK-Tok videos for entertainment and indulges in the magic herbs in his free time. Nothing wrong with it but.....

Anyway so whenever certain topics of discussion come up at work and everyone is talking about it and knows what happened and why and what's going to happen next... He's always the guy that had No Clue what happened... So what he often does to try and fit into the conversation is he finds some funny meme or video on tik-tok or Facebook, anything that's making fun of whatever we're discussing.

And he passes it around and everyone gets a chuckle for a minute. Even if it's sometimes unrelated to the topic, but he thinks it is, and he smiles and feels better. So I kind of get it... But it's also kind of sad though, in a way, if you know what I mean..

The number to beat is $92.015, not there yet, and if it doesn't do it by end of regular trading, then it may just do it in the overnight.. Or not..

Silver futures just hit the HOD at $91.34 less than a dollar away from the higher high mark.

Looks like they may push it over the goal line on the night shift.

Now totally irrelevant what the price of Silver is .
There exists refining issues , you cannot melt or
get paid out on anything not pure .
Dealer liquidity issues are getting worse with many
dealers crap bidding Sterling or Constitutional Silver
or not even buying at all .
What a wonderful stable market ..not!

@jbuck so true



For me I would call it more of a misunderstanding of millennials though. Gen-x was the "feral" type, left to wander the streets, discover things and fend for our selves generation.

@barryg if you weren't sure what to wear for shoveling snow just look at your Farmers Almanac they're way more reliable...



Snark? You ain't seen nothing yet buddy

Yup only us true Gen-X'ers knows this. But in the 80's there was a commercial that came on TV every night to remind our parents to come look for us.. It came on right before the late news and it went something like this...

"It's 10 pm, do you know where your children are?"

When the street lights came on it was how we knew it was time to go home. Good times.

I know there's a meme or video out there about this commercial but I'll let someone else go find it.

Yup those scoundrels waited for the very end to drop it.

But they didn't drop it all the way to the $86 support where I was waiting with my buy order.

Shenanigans I tell ya.

They are in the overlap, generational cuspers or Generation Jones.

For the record, I am not. They are all older than me.
