Stacking is Stacking

avatar

         Sometimes, stacking is boring. This is especially true when it comes to precious metals. Often, I want to have a cool piece that's not too far from the spot price. Reason being, I want something more than a standard bar with some brand name on it. It's rather greedy to have that sort of outlook.

         When you think about it, that's asking for all the upsides and none of the drawbacks. A custom piece usually sells for much higher than the spot because of the time and work went into it. Not to mention, there's a potential collector's value. Getting such piece at or near spot price is a steal.

         Okay, not everyone can be lucky and picked up that 10-ounce bar with fancy designs at a reasonable price. Chances are, silver may never go up 10x to $250 an ounce in our lifetime. Getting those assets, however, could be more than valuable in my eyes.

         To me, land is the most valuable of assets. After all, we are physical beings. It doesn't make much sense for me to be fiat rich, or having large amounts of liquid holdings. The only reason why I have liquid holdings is because I am looking to put them into something.

         My parents, for example, have always only kept a small portion of their net worth in USD. Enough for a few months of expenses. The rest of their wealth is always in some sort of investments. They can be stocks, land, etc. They still aren't into crypto yet, but time will tell. They understand that if they kept all their wealth in fiat, they are losing value with passing time.

         Back to me stacking silver bars. Stacking may not be pretty or exciting, but stacking is stacking. It's something I hope I will be glad when I look back. The same goes to everyone who's been stacking in the last few years in crypto and whatnot. I hope you can look back and be glad that you persevered and kept going.

         Of course, no financial advice. I'm but one tale of enduring the bears of the market cycles. It's not about nice guys finishing last. It's about enduring to the end.

I agree about land being the most valuable, a nice piece of land will be just as valuable if not more in 100 years so you can't go wrong with land as long as you choose it wisely. Of course you can't quickly tur it into liquidity unless you use it as collateral

Gotta get my first piece of land. We can worry about the liquidity thing later.

It's good to keep on stacking with the way the dollar is being diluted, the only downside to land is if the Government wants to tax you off of it.

Variety has been on the low side since the whole GME and WSB thing.

Been having a hard time finding interesting pieces.

Those are still pretty cool looking even if they don't have the fancy artwork or designs! I agree with you on land. I'd love to get some real estate under my belt. Besides my current home I mean. Ideally, I would love to do some kind of business with my buddy where I put up the money from Crypto for houses and he does the work to flip them and then we split the profits.

Aye! That's the dream, ain't it?

I don't think I would go into real estate, but I would like to have at least a piece of land for myself.

It's great to have a stacking mindset as opposed to a consumption mindset. Planning to get some gold to diversify a bit away from stocks.

Yup, land is a valuable asset! You've gotta own a piece of America.
And silver and gold! It endures to the end!

Precious metal is the GOAT of the mediums of exchange. It cant be made in a lab, hacked, or printed out of thin air. It has uses in production and is held by central banks as a store of value. If you don't hold it you may not own it, get some precious metals(STORE OF VALUE, not a speculative play)!

Physical - non traceable wealth is always a great option. Stack what you can, when you can and know you always have a saving account that can be handed down generations.
