    A short discussion about why the investor demand has been skyrocketing in the past few years and also the specific reasons why you are stacking bullion.

    Did not watch past 30 sec of that vid. 8minutes of mindless drivel coming right up!

    I stack the treasure for myself, my wife and our future.
    To hold a secret like a stack close to your chest gives you depth as a person.
    My stack is mine, if you want it you will have to be prepared to die.
    I don't stack because I am rich, nor do I stack to get rich, I stack because one day we will all be equal but we will still have a stack.

    I also stopped at 30 seconds. Everyone stacks for their own reason.

    Not an 'investment' to me, it is an insurance policy and/or an inflation hedge.

    ...or a survival tool.

    I will not sell my first ASE until I am desperate, and have nothing left to negotiate with. I can do that at the rate of 4 a week for 3+ years.

    I am a skeptic - a person inclined to question or doubt all accepted opinions. I do not believe in Evolution, Climate change or the ability of man to govern himself wisely. I distrust politicians, most generally left wing ones but also fascists and the globalization efforts of the U.N. and similar political/religious movements.

    Having assiduously examined the evidence I believe the KJV Bible to be the true account of history in English and am a Bible believing Christian. As such I do consider we are entering a time of global chaos which can be examined as prophesied in the books of Daniel and The Revelation.

    Fiat currencies are going to fail, no question. Where else can one try to protect ones family and each other except by trying to minimize the effects through silver and gold?

    Whether the powers will allow this remains to be seen. Computer power enables the political establishment to spy on every aspect of our lives.

    Yes I am a conspiracy nut, however before criticizing me watch - Agenda: Grinding America Down. Curtis Bowers. http://vimeo.com/63749370 The successfully executed Marxist plot to destroy America.

    Skepticism or scepticism (see spelling differences) is generally any questioning attitude towards knowledge, facts, or opinions/beliefs stated as facts,[1] or doubt regarding claims that are taken for granted elsewhere.[2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skepticism.

    Being a Christian does not mean leaving my brain at the door. If you want to see a good film about misapplied skepticism/censorship of thought watch 'Expelled No Intelligence Allowed' by Ben Stien' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5EPymcWp-g

    Examine the evidence!

    if you believe the end times are coming... what use will gold and silver be in the end time, i am not a christian and know very little about it.. but from what i understand you believe that the holy spirit is going to come down to earth and take you away to a magical land of cotton candy in the sky. will your metals also be raptured with you? or will you leave them here on earth for your blaspheming friends and family to enjoy once you are gone?
