No way.
You would have been the ONLY guy on earth who thought that... even analysts did not foresee it... so unless you had a crystal ball or were just reaching there was no way you "foresaw" that far back.
We all knew it would go up eventually... this is not rocket science.
But you DID NOT KNOW it would be at 100 at beginning of this year... EVEN 6 MONTHS AGO... ONLY a handful of people had an idea that it could by end 1st quarter 2026... and NO ONE other than Comex high ups and India analyst outlooks / LBMA flow analysts knew it could MAYBE go to 100 by first quarter... but they were NOT for sure and only speculated it MIGHT hit 100 by the end of marches calls.
ARC, brotha, relax, take a breath. You're not the only one who has connections in the industry. I knew it would go to $100 and even much higher into 3-figures back when I invested at $19. Do you think I’d be dropping a lot of $$ to invest on a whim?
I never said it would be hitting $100 in Jan 2026, or the beginning of this year; that’s your assertion. I felt it was coming soon based on all the recent activity and increases in price, but I didn’t have an exact date, nobody’s that good. But I knew it would hit $100 and soar even higher, and that's why I dropped $$ into investing in Silver back when it was at $19. It was only in the last several months or so, as Silver was in the processing of rising on a constant basis that provided a closer view/idea as to how soon it might reach that mark, as we continued to get closer.
Look at the people who invested in Mel Fisher when he was searching for the Atocha. He knew he would find it; they knew he would find it, but he/they just didn’t know the exact day, month or year that it would be found (today’s the day!). And who really cares? He knew he would find it and he did.
So no, I didn't know EXACTLY that Silver would be hitting $100 in Jan 2026 until we got really close, and I never predicted that it would hit in Jan 2026, only that it would be hitting soon. And for the record, I'm NOT some kind of Silver guru, not an analyst, not a trader, never claimed to be. But like I've said in many other posts, I use my life experience, discernment, and plain ole' common sense to help me make decisions.
AND, in the case of Silver, I had some major help. I have an acquaintance who owns multiple businesses, and one of those businesses is involved with Silver investing. He personally has 10's of Millions of his own money invested in Silver. It was HE who suggested to ME that I invest in Silver, because HE knew it would be hitting $100oz and rising into the mid 3-figures, even higher. He also believes that the real price of Silver should be either equal or very close to the price of gold, forgetting the 7 to 1 ratio as demand for Silver is higher than demand for Gold. So, I used my life experience, discernment and common sense to jump in at $19 based on his recommendation. So, I don't have a crystal ball, I didn't have a dream, I didn't flip a coin and didn't count on luck. A multi-multi-millionaire with 10’s of Millions of his own money invested in Silver gave me advice, I took his advice, and it's paying off.
I AM the one who leaked the news of upcoming 100 at first of the year first here.
Believe that.
I’ll believe it when I see it. It wasn’t on this thread, so please provide the thread and post # where you leaked the news at the beginning of the year. I’m not doubting that you may have said that, but it wasn’t on this thread. I’ve made posts on other forums and other threads saying the same as well, but it’s my thread here that we’re talking about.
SO,, IF you "knew"... you were ONLY guessing.
So again.
You saw nothing even if you were aware of all that.... and no one without serious knowledge of the silver scene as a whole would have even had a hint.
IT was purposely done UNDER radar... so "regular" buyers and such would PURPOSELY not know and be late to the party.
I wasn’t guessing, I was taking advice from someone who put his $$ where his mouth is. He’s not an analyst or trader, sitting behind a screen, trying to figure out what the market is doing and trying to tell others what to do. He’s a hard core investor who is deeply involved and has a business in Silver. It’s like the old saying “If you can’t do, teach”. He doesn’t teach, he simply does, and I’d much rather take advice from someone actually involved in the game with his own money than those staring at screens trying to prognosticate.
And just so you know....
I can also prove ALL of this i said... So before you argue.........
OK, if this is the case, by all means, please provide proof. If you’ve said this on Tnet, please provide the thread and post # at the beginning of the year where you stated that Silver would be hitting $100. I may not have seen that thread or post; I'm just focusing on this thread.
LIKE just starting with the first fact that silver would NEVER be / hit 100.. NOW or even by end of 2026 if it was not added to the Strategic mineral list IN NOVEMBER. (as well as other following suite)
And KNOWING this was ONLY privy to those who KNEW these lists were coming under review.
And did not become LAW until three months ago.
So this is just ONE... FACT.
AND ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS FOR THE FAST RISE !
had that not happened... SILVER would be $45- 55 MAX an ounce TODAY... and WOULD NOT HAVE hit 100 EVEN THIS YEAR.
And KNOWING this was ONLY privy to those who KNEW these lists were coming under review.
And did not become LAW until three months ago.
So this is just ONE... FACT.
OK, so those are facts. They may be facts of events that have contributed to Silver’s incredible rise, but they aren’t Facts that prove that you were the first person in the history of the world who “leaked” that Silver was going to hit $100. You said it yourself in your first paragraph that “
We all knew it would go up eventually... this is not rocket science.” And I knew it too based on the advice I was given a few years ago when I first started investing in Silver. I knew it was gonna happen, and that’s why I invested my $$ into physical Silver. I didn’t have a date or month, don’t care, I’m in it for the long-term, but I knew it was gonna happen, just couldn’t predict exactly when. So what?
So those facts are all fine and good, but they still don’t “prove” that you were the first to utter a prediction. You very well may have, on another thread, or in another forum, but we’re dealing with this thread, the thread that I started, and if you look at the top right of any of my posts, you’ll see the banner “Thread Owner”. So please provide the thread and post # where you were the first to say that Silver was going to $100. I may not have seen that thread or your post. I’m only referencing this specific thread.
Have some respect for what i brought to your thread..
I absolutely do have respect for what you’ve brought to the thread, and I think I’ve made my appreciation apparent on several different posts and replies to your posts.
I will stop now by simply stating.....
I call BS...
Sheesh man... you USE AMPEX for pricing.... that says it all. heh
LOL, as if the spot price chart one uses has any bearing. I like APMEX, I like their spot price layout, I like the larger fonts. Using a different site to get a spot price doesn’t make you a better prognosticator; no more than driving a more expensive car doesn’t make you a better driver. I haven’t seen any two different sites with spot prices that are exactly the same; they’re all showing different prices. The differences aren’t huge, maybe pennies or 50 cents, or whatever, but they all are typically within a buck of each other. I just look at the spot price as a gauge, an indication of where Silver is heading. I don’t have to get into the minutia and down to the very last penny. All of that is fluff anyway.
