just a kind reminder that you still have 20 oz gold in your shopping list
Indeed I do... and it is about time to get on with that shopping!

That is awesome brother. In the end 1000 turns out to be just another number. The real question is which one of us will be the first to get to 20 oz of gold? LOL
Thanks, TBK. Yeah, I know what you mean about it being just another number. It is that for sure. Needed to have some idea of where I was going with it though and just picked that one. Now that it is here, I still have an itch to buy some silver. lol

However, science better extend the average age of death big time in the second half of my life in order to get that done, lol....
Not a problem, Hawk, for there IS another possibility. Suppose that 5-10 years down the road, silver is in VERY short supply, the price goes WAY up, and we can trade silver for gold at a VERY favorable ratio.

So if Silver prices go up $3 dollars you could realize a $3100 profit. then you could wait for the next dip and repeat.
That would be possible but shipping costs will take a big bite out of that $3 per oz. if we have to ship it. Also, who says that there will be another dip? There probably will be more dips but there is no guarantee of that. This is my financial "Oh, S***!" insurance. Would hate to cash it in for fiat only to have the dollar and / or economy crash at that particular moment.

It can be there for any number of reasons. You have yours and I have mine and neither of us is right or wrong.

Congrats. If I combined all metal content (gold, silver, copper, etc), it probably would not be half of your silver stash weight.
Thanks, Fuzzy. Everyone starts somewhere and is at some point along the path we all trod. Where we are is less significant than the fact that we ARE on the path!
