    Hello my people!

    I'm a new member from Canberra and my name is Alex. Much respect for this forum and the valued members who contribute to its operation.

    I hope to create some lasting friendships and ongoing relationships with the members on here, you are my kind of people and I have a need to surround myself with like-minded individuals such as yourselves.

    Anybody on here from Canberra? It would be great to meet up if you're open to such a thing?

    G'day STKR,

    Welcome from Belco.

    We did have a get together at Mooseheads a few years back, so there is a handful of local lurkers.

    Thank you! I was in NZ early this year and couldn't believe how expensive your dairy Is!! Considering that NZ exports 30% of the world's dairy, something is seriously wrong.

    Welcome to the forum, are you a silver bug or a gold bug?

    I love gold, it's an incredible metal with amazing qualities, a perfect candidate for money - tried and true!....but nothing is more undervalued and underappreciated than silver.

    I began trading commodities in 2014 and was surprised to learn that Silver derives its value from the COMEX derivative. This lead to a thorough investigation into silver manipulation, mining AISC's, Mining ratios, above ground availability, projected below ground deposits, ore grade declines, industrial + investor demand, historical influences in price volatility and it's links to monetary policy - past, present and future - both locally and globally.

    I know I'm preaching to a choir here, but in a world full of cheap credit, corrupted monetary policies and never seen before debt levels (government and private), silver is the most undervalued asset in the world. With a mining ratio of 9:1 to gold and a trading ratio of 88:1 - silver presents an incredible opportunity for the long term.

    I work for myself and because of the reasons I set out above, I choose silver as my superannuation fund. I also save for my childrens future in silver and encourage them to do the same.
    hell, I even make colloidal silver/ nano silver to take advantage of its antimicrobial, antibacterial and antifungal qualities.

    I could go on and on and on and on and on and on....

    The short answer would have been "I'm a silver bug", but my obsession is engrained far deeper than those 4 words.

    Welcome. I'm from Canberra too! I attended a Canberra meetup a while ago in the Gungahlin library organised by Sammie Silver. I'm interested in historic coins, with a focus on European from 1871-1930 or thereabouts.
