    when I first started stacking I was lucky enough to be off work for 2 weeks on compo and became addicted/obsessed....

    i reckon I spent about 18 hours a day on the net reading EVERYTHING, chart stuff, heavy conspiro stuff, historical, every youtube video, etc, etc...all on a steady diet of coffee and cigarettes...

    and Im still learning stuff everyday....

    I felt like I absolutely had to, like a window of opportunity was slowly growing smaller every day and I had to learn as much as I possibly could to be as prepared as I could...

    12 steps of SSA (Silver Stackers Anonymous)

    Step 1. We admitted we were powerless over silver price manipulation and that we could manage our own financial security.
    Step 2. We came to believe that no power but oursleves could restore our wealth and sanity.
    Step 3. We made a decision to turn our will and wealth over to the care of Gold as we understood it was the only responsible monetary standard.
    Step 4. We made searching and fearless inventory of our stacks.
    Step 5. We admitted to oursleves and to anyone else who cared to listen that ending the Gold standard was the exact nature of humanities wrong.
    Step 6. We were entirely ready for Gold to remove the shortcomings of our financial system.
    Step 7. We humbly waited for Gold to remove these shortcomings.
    Step 8. We made a list of all the persons that were harmed by not knowing about the virtues of stacking gold and silver and became willing to enlighten them.
    Step 9. We made direct contact with such people wherever possible except when we knew they would be harmed by being shaken awake.
    Step 10. We continued to take inventory of our stacks and when there was a dip, we promptly added to it.
    Step 11. We sought through work and research to improve our contact with physical Gold, reasearching only for knowledge of Gold's power to preserve wealth and for the powder to carry a greater percentage of it in our stack.
    Step 12. Having had a conscious awakening a result of these steps, of the fraud that the banking cartels have decieved us with, we tried to carry this message through YouTube and the Interwebz, and to practice these principles in preserving and adding to our wealth.

    The point within a circle...
    Forget a crack high, I felt like a true junkie over this last month.

    I've had a bit of a bad time with Immigration not letting me work while my visa is being processed. With that as a result, I've been out of work for a month, so managed to pay the essentials; rent, food etc.

    The thing that has been so hard for me of late - is no buying. Just swapping.... It's good fun, and don't get me wrong, I've pulled some corking deals (apart from Matrix stealing my 2008 Kook) but its not the same as the old 'payday sweetshop' feeling you get browsing the trade section every Thursday.

    With that said though, I did manage to trade SilverTongue my guitar for a cool 10oz a week ago... so I have had a bit of a fix, though not much...

    RD - Resuming business as usual from Thursday :p

    She's denying me a boat at this stage.

    I was stacking silver for about three years before I knew it was stacking, up 'til then I just assumed I was hoarding. I am OK with hoarding, I have been doing it for ages so I can do it without any effort or stress and I don't feel the need to become evangelical about it.

    Once I found silver stackers I started checking the spot every five minutes, F5'ing to see if any new topics had materialised, reading stuff!

    Talking to everyone here gave me the idea that it was OK to talk about silver and I tried it at home. Oh well, you live and learn.

    A poorly constructed boat with PM storage is an essential though :/

    I'll second that... You really do have to watch those boating accidents though - I was attacked by Pirates off Moreton Bay en route to burying my stash.

    I saw them weeks later showing off their booty in the city, the most I could do was get a picture of them:

    Strange isn't it.

    You dont inhale it,
    you dont snort it,
    you dont drink it,
    you dont eat it,
    you dont inject it,
    and you dont shove it up your arse......

    but when you hold that cold shiny in your hands, the feeling is one of euphoria !

    There is a silver desease named "Argyria" and it makes you look like this: [​IMG]
    For the people that are color blind, it's the right guy on the left pic.
    It doesn't threaten your health, but it can be a problem when dating.
    I'm concerned, I sleep next to 275 kg :/

    Geez, that's a bit scary but from what I have just skim read I think you would need to ingest silver before being at risk of contracting this. :/
