    Hi everyone,

    I am fairly new the stacking world and had been searching for a good forum to read and post about precious metals. I visited a few different sites and this seems to me, at the least, to be the most active forum. I am almost exclusively a silver stacker, it is in my price range. ;) I have been buying silver since about a year. Just a little bit at a time, slowly building a small stack. I would consider myself 80% investor and 20% collector. Investment wise, I like having a small portion of my investments in PM to help protect against inflation. However, I do like the idea of tangible assets and something to take out and appreciate everyone one in awhile. I will say, I do fear a super inflation economic situation, so I do not invest all my money into PMs, but on the other hand, I do not usually hold on to significant amounts of cash either. I would rather invest my money in another type of financial vehicle.

    I have been reading some posts online as guest for a little while and more recently as a user. I do truly appreciate the vast amount of knowledge and experience that is available in this forum. I look forward to more reading, good discussions, and of course more stacking with everyone on this forum.

    Glad to be here,
    Jamie

    * Meant to say I do not fear a super inflation situation. I could not find the edit link.

    Welcome Jamie

    The edit tab should be bottom right area of your post.

    I am not sure that there has ever been a situation where the world's reserve currency experienced hyperinflation, so I don't worry about that scenario either.

    Welcome!

    I like the 80% Investor 20% Collector get out clause!

    It reminds me of a comedian who walked out on stage and said he was going to give the audience a bit of comedy and a bit of poetry. If no one laughed at a joke, it was poetry instead!

    Thank you to all for the warm reception.

    I am from the First State, Delaware. Born and raised.

    Jislizard, 80% investor/20% collector is great scenario as it allows me to justify pretty much any purchase in my head. Especially, when I go on a buying binge.
