Hello there, folks.

I am starting this thread for those who are interested in
'hard money' - call it 'paleo-investing' it you will.

The silver price has apparently been suppressed - for a while.
Many so-called pundits and prognosticators predict that it MAY
soon move upwards.

The purpose of this thread is to keep track of these things.
Participate if you will...

Lead would be the only precious metal worth buying and then there is a limit it does no good.

Gold and Silver are only worth something if the economy crashes slowly and recovers slowly. Its controlled by the same people who control paper money. They tell you to buy it while its high and when you can't hold it because you need the money you sell it back to them at a low price. They win all the way around.

Lead is a noble metal. Some noble metals are also precious metals - the former has scientific justification, the latter just manmade significance. Some may classify lead a precious metal but IMO that's a stretch. However, lead ammo may very well be precious in some instances.

The day you or I can no longer afford to buy it. Or can't. The depressed value of Gold and Silver makes no sense as fiat currency continue to be devalued.

I've got the nagging suspicion that the world's controlling elites are purposely being manipulated, crashing precious metal value. This until all silver and gold ownership will again be surrendered to the One World Government "at fair (depressed) market price." Can't have the (former) middle class and peons owning gold.

In the meantime, abodanza! Mangia! We really have been blessed to have lived in a brief era of mankind when we truly could practically eat whatever we wanted, affordably, freshly, and with the greatest variety. Some days I could scarcely believe how fortunate I was -- noshing on a dinner of fresh jumbo shrimp, filet mignon, etc....for barely the price of an hour of work.

So to that, tip your glass of ChiCom wine, and let's dig into our ChiCom farm-raised Talapia, ChiCom farmed veggies, and dessert :-) One day after the elites' metal confiscation, the elites' generosity will end.

And in memorium to the days of banquets that even the lower class of America could afford ocassionally, here is one of my favorite scenes from Soylent Green:

Is that dip in '08 due to McCain losing the election? More confidence in the dollar, after mcsatan lost, followed by panic silver buying after a year or so of Obongo.

If it looks like a Bush or Clinton might get elected in '16 the value of precious metals could skyrocket, due to a sentiment of impending doom, and fear of, The End Of The World As We Know It (TEOTWAWKI).

Silver looks like a good buy to me.

Yup. IIRC,it was two billionaire brothers in Texas that manipulated and destroyed the silver market. They bought it cheap and then their massive buys and the rumors they spread drove the price up,and then they bailed with more billions and the silver market collapsed.

The Bass Brothers? Does that sound right?

Silver has a lot of industrial uses. It will (most likely) eventually get back up there. Question is: When? (IMO)

IMHO it will never go that high again. It's not rare or particularly valuable,wasn't worth that much money back then,and will probably never be worth that much ever.

Gold and Silver are only worth something if the economy crashes slowly and recovers slowly.

They are only worth something if there is someone who has things you need that is willing to trade for them. In a total market collapse,things like coffee,bandages,medicine,gasoline,and bullets will be more valuable than either.

Let's say for example the entire US economy collapses,which it will one day unless things change.

Then lets say you have 20 lbs of gold stuffed away in a closet. Who in your neighborhood are you going to find who will trade you food,water,clothing,medicine,and comfort items for a few flakes of gold? Or even the whole 20 lbs? You can't eat it,drink it,or defend yourself with it,so what good is it to the average person?

Even fi there were an established price per ounce for it,how many people do you know other than drug dealers that have scales accurate enough to weigh grams and who have access to transportation and markets where he can sell he gold?

Every consumer item,including gold is only worth what people are willing to pay for it.

I remember some old timers telling me that during the great depression, that the most common item for barter was .22 LR shells. I would have thought eggs, or something similiar. But, eggs did have a rather short shelf life. One of the characteristics of good money is durability.

Yup. Durable goods,seeds,water,whiskey,bandages,and other things that don't spoil are always valuable trade items.

So what if somebody wants to offer you 100 for a gallon of gas to run his generator if the gas stations are all closed? Where are you going to buy the gas to replace it,and how important is being able to occasionally run your generator,tiller,cultivator,etc,etc,etc?

One of the characteristics of good money is durability.

Well,the truth is that a 100 dollar bill is not money. It is only the promise of money.

Money can truly be defined as "anything you can use to trade for things you need and don't have."

Gold and silver aren't very useful to most people,and neither is paper.

Hmm, I spent 12 years as a precious metal refiner, as afar as I remember, noble metals are those that need to be reduced by more than one acid, usually Aqua Regia. (Hydrochloric/Nitric)

Lead is reduced by nitric and made a to a sulphate with the addition of sulphuric, that's how to remove lead from solution.

Lol, ....ha, ya, Aqua Regia is Latin or something like that for 'Royal Water', because of its ability to reduce noble metals, silver is NOT a noble metal, as it only takes Nitric to reduce it, in fact, the addition of Hyrochoric will cause it to form a protective shell around it. Once it it reduced with Nitric, it's precipitated out of solution with Hydrochloric. Ran through a filter and washed and sent to foundry and made into anodes for further refining using electricity.

" Money can truly be defined as "anything you can use to trade for things you need and don't have." "

Money is merely a medium of exchange.

It has taken many forms over the centuries, sea shells, tobacco, fish, minerals, .22 ammunition, etc, etc, etc. But probably the longest serving form has been gold & silver coins.

Because it's real, it's stable, and from the look of the chart is likely to go up even if no major economic collapse happens soon.

Fiat paper currency has no intrinsic value, it's all based on CONfidence. Silver is a commodity which will always have value.

A definition of a noble metal is one that is resistant to oxidation and corrosion. Cetainly gold falls into that catagory as it requires Aqua Regia ( a mixture of HCl and nitric acid)for it to dissolve. SOme classify copper as a noble metal but it will readily dissolve in just nitric acid (gives off some very pretty colors when it does).

A $5 canadian silver coin will buy you a lot of goods when the paper collapses. Rice, beans, water, fuel, TP, bullets you can stock up on also. A smart man buys at least 2 coins a week as long as the price is below $25. At worst, it is a loss of $13 or so. The Maple dollar will still be worth a 5 spot, and that is a who lot more than a Lincoln will be worth after the world dumps the dollar.

You can't eat silver (or gold or platinum or anything other than food). Currency only has the value that people place on it. If sh*t hits the fan carrots will be worth much more as currency than silver (or gold or platinum.....)

Yes, silver is real. However, silver is not stable by any means. Stable means not likely to change or fail; firmly established. Silver has been doing nothing but changing or failing to the down side and losing value. Furthermore, silver in no way can be considered firmly established.

You looking at the 5-year Silver London Fix Chart and saying silver is likely to go up is to which something is as probable as misterwhite’s Magic 8 Ball and just look at his results. Of course if you are an expert in Technical Analysis then you may to some degree forecast the future price of silver based on an examination of past price movements. But that will be one huge “may” since the success rate is very small when using Technical Analysis as an investment guide thus proving that Technical Analysis Is stupid.

As an interesting side note, take time to read this article that was projecting silver price to increase 400 percent in three years. Note the date on the article is November 2012. With four months remaining, what do you think is the probability of the forecast in the article being correct?

Fiat paper currency has no intrinsic value, it's all based on CONfidence. Silver is a commodity which will always have value.

That is correct, fiat money has no intrinsic value, but it is still used solely as a means of payment. Fiat money does risk becoming worthless due to hyperinflation. Silver has value relative to what….fiat money?

All this is no reason not to buy silver. It only points to a question that cannot be answered. That is, when and at what price? Just looking at a chart will not furnish that answer.
