This thread started out making me feel pretty uneasy. Over the years I've lost a heck of an amount of money to whatever came along at the time. I was into silver when the Hunt Brothers were. They kinda did better than I did. Even bought a margin account on silver, making myself a whole lot of money when silver topped. And then my broker quit taking phone calls....
I called the FBI, detailed the transaction, and I actually got some money back - but not the full amount.
I'm still holding quite a bit at well over the spot price today. Doesn't matter, that's the protection of finality = when we start killing ourselves for survival.
I haven't ruled that happening out yet. And, trouble is = you can't EAT silver or gold.
Kinda better than doing nothing anyway.
Maybe a better investment might be ammo viewing the turmoil today.
