I have never owned silver, or gold, or crypto.
Oops...silly me.
My first gold was $12xx in cash from my buddy. Basically spare cash I had no use for and a guy who was a gold bug. My first BTC was like $10 .. literally.. I've stupidly spent BTC so many times that the stories are so depressing. Instead of being rich I'm just in a place of financially comfortable.
Silver .. probably $25. Silver purchase was at the beginning of covid.. Gold earlier. Actually according to emails I bought Silver back in 2011. I was still a young man.
1 gram Gold Bar - Secondary Market 1 gram Gold Bar - Secondary Market 100 @ $4664. It is as $129.68 a gram and I got it for $46.64. Not sure where inflation is.
At one point recently I was going through emails and saw I bought 10 ozs of platinum and totally forgot I even had them until I was looking through emails. Which is bad because they could be seen as Silver and seriously underpriced at some point while selling. I found them though.
Silver it appears up to $32 an oz as max I paid.
Regardless - outside of crypto it has been ok.
I might take a BTC and buy gold. Always wanted a real bar of gold 20 oz or so.. something with real heft. Problem is just selling it in the future. I'd probably just skip out. 1/2 Ozs might be best so that you fall under various thresholds if I was to ever sell them.
I feel like gold has went up too fast too suddenly for it to be a good price. I'm ok with keeping around a lot of cash. $4k an oz .. seems too likely to be under water at that price.
Trump has seriously done a number on the US so far. The value of USD should be seem like something analagous to the price of a stock. Not trying to be political but we don't have covid or anything else as an excuse so it seems like a fair observation. I mean we even cut a lot of the governments expenses and still.
I need to look into the Trump tax cuts. This might be a good time to sell some ETH and buy real estate somewhere. It just needs to be resilant to various concerns of mine like lack of water + possible fires.
I completely believe this. Walgreens Stock was around $84 in 2017, :D and plummeted to around $11 in 2025! :eek:

Trump walked back his comments on huge tariffs he was planning for China
that was what caused the market to tank on Friday
futures are way up
Trump is sensitive to the market -
he doesn't want it to tank while he's is office
that's good news for investors
but many other issues can impact stocks -

TACO.
Count on it, and make money off it the way I just did.
All these traders lost money Friday. I MADE money shorting NFLX Friday (short against the box), and then bot META and TSLA near their very bottoms on Friday, and sold much higher today.
As you know, I hold many of the top stocks long, and regularly trade additional shares.
Cha'Ching!
I do agree though that a big drop is coming, and will have as much to do with profit taking as any new rattling news. But in the long term, we go up regardless.
Speculation without facts--very typical of those affected with incurable TDS.
Trump haters will conjure up basically anything hoping to offset all the frustrating wins he's provided for this country. Remember when Qatar gifted the COUNTRY with a decked out 747, and those with TDS, including here, claimed Trump was personally enriched by the plane? So now we have the same people who've been completely debunked a dozen times when it comes to making things up about him, saying "he's robbing the country blind with all his power-grabs just to add to his wealth".
Haven't you poor souls tasted enuf crow, egg, and toe jam/foot gel yet? :)
My own work. Whether legal or business related.
Stock trading I don’t even do every day or even every week. Just high probability trades of extra shares of stocks I own long term. Speaking of which - over all appreciation in long term stocks probably eclipses especially some years my legal or business related income.
This retard has no significant amount of money to invest in stocks.
