I would love to buy gold right now but thanks to the dipshit in office I am unable to drop that kind of money. What I have worked into my budget is buying silver. This is something I plan on doing for the rest of my life. My goal is to purchase at least $100 of silver every month. I just did so from SDBullion and got myself three 1oz silver bars.
My question, for those of you that have already been investing into precious metals for a while, what is the best bang for my buck? What weights do you recommend? What sellers do you recommend? Is it better for my to keep buying 1oz bars each month or set aside money each month until I have enough to get a 5oz or a 10oz bar?
Bitcoin is backed by proof-of-work. How do you not know that? Its limited nature, proof-of-work, and utility give it value. I put under $1000 into Bitcoin and it's now worth $67,000. XRP can't compare.
And have you even heard of USD and all the nefarious things it is used for? Most bills have cocaine on them.
It's real value comes from the fact that there is a finite supply of bitcoin. Once all the 64 million or billion bitcoin have been mined, that's it, no more. They can't create more bitcoin and devalue it, like they do with printing more dollars.
edit: Forgot to add - However, my belief is that if TSHTF, anything based in the digital/electronic aether will be worthless. Precious metals will be king, along with food and fresh water.
