My silver came! It's not the same style as what I had expected but I really don't care. The back of this one is pretty cool with the JM and 2 hammers logo printed all over it. Good shit!

Congrats!

Thanks guys! Pretty psyched to join the club.

If that is how you get your kicks...
The thing of most importance to me is getting a higher return on investment. That is not done by buying and selling physical coins and bars.

Huh?
You get a higher return on investment by investing in paper silver than you do with physical coins/bars because the spread on coins/bars is higher and the liquidity is lower. This is why paper silver was invented.

"This is why paper silver was invented".
And why people still keep trusting in paper. Because it makes so much sense.
Well keep it up when that tail wagging the dog finally shows it's fleas, I hope you are into it in full. Due diligence and all that.

Like you could ever figure out the ins and outs of the silver market, using any vehicle. Give it a rest.

Relax bro, Im not trying to convince you. I have done pretty well investing over the years by not doing what the chicken littles in this, and other, corners of the internet preach. I never claim to know the ins and outs of silver, Im just posting basic ideas.
I wonder if you have shorted SLV based on your opinions? I would hope so, because if not then I would suspect your are just talking bullshit. I personally dont know and dont own SLV. I have in the past and may again in the future. Maybe Ill get SIVR instead. I think we can take it for granted that you are against that too.

Just because it's not a buy, doesn't make it a short. You are the one talking complete bullshit. Don't recommend SLV over real silver investments, based on your bullshit idea of what makes a market. You sound like a fool.

Thx for sharing. Are you going to reply like this every time I post an opinion in this forum?

The way you are talking absolutely does. If its a scam destined to fail then you should be shorting it. Otherwise, its just going to go on tracking silver.

No, but when you talk smack be prepared for it. Now it turns out you really don't know shit about SLV, you just recommended it for no reason. People are on here for real advice, not some joker like you.

You are the arbiter of "real advice" now? I think memes can make that call on his own.
I think your style of posting here in inappropriate and immature. You have wasted space and derailed the thread by getting butthurt over an opinion that wasnt even directed at you.
You win, Im going to let you rule the forum and leave. Your advice shall be the "real advice".

Look at that JM bar, thats $2K of your dollars that the Fed can't inflate out of your hands.
Silver is very volatile so it can fly off in any direction at any time

lol, diecommie is anything but a troll. granted, his opinions are - at times - expressed in contest with the common views of a thread. but that, in an of itself, does not make him a troll. it makes his advice all the more valuable. the two-letter 'no' in a group of 'yes' men is worth infinitely more than its three-letter counterpart.

It's not like anyone here isn't open to opinion but when you have no factual anything to back any of your claims and your just saying shit.. that's trolling.

OK since everyone seems to be confused, let's break this down.
He said:
Quote:
DieCommie said: The thing of most importance to me is getting a higher return on investment. That is not done by buying and selling physical coins and bars.
Then he provided support for his claim when it was challenged:
Quote:
You get a higher return on investment by investing in paper silver than you do with physical coins/bars because the spread on coins/bars is higher and the liquidity is lower. This is why paper silver was invented.
His point is valid. Nobody will contest that it's extremely difficult to find physical silver at spot value. Most of the time you seem to be paying 5-10% above spot. When you sell, it's more difficult - as physical possession is involved - and you're likely not going to get the same premium above spot as you paid. The easier it is to sell back, the lower you'll get for your physical silver
then more responses
Quote:
"This is why paper silver was invented". And why people still keep trusting in paper. Because it makes so much sense. Well keep it up when that tail wagging the dog finally shows it's fleas, I hope you are into it in full. Due diligence and all that.
annd then goes back to DC's original contention and belittles him:
Quote:
Like you could ever figure out the ins and outs of the silver market, using any vehicle. Give it a rest.
and then they continued back and forth.
Fact of the matter is: DC's opinion is valid and welcomed, and the rest of you got testy because DC's goals didn't mimic your goals. You want physical silver because you don't trust in fractional reserve banking. DC wants a wealth hedge, and buys e-silver accordingly. In the end, its a truly silly argument. But i do not complain, as your debate serves me till the end: i pull from it the nuggets of knowledge that I choose apply to my situation
