    $0.20 per kg ($4 per bag). The worms love it.

    Cow turds are better.
    Horse poop is full of weeds.

    The trick is to leave it inside the bag, sitting in the sun sweating for a few months before you spread it in the garden and to turn it in nice and deep under your topsoil, mulch, straw or whatever you mix it with. It takes a few planting cycles before the horse turd really works it's magic, especially with vegetable patches.

    I am fairly new to silver. I honestly hope that none of my questions or coments come off as offensive or sarcastic, they are just questions, because I don't know. I have seen the youtube videos. And I don't believe that buying silver is buying a winning lottery ticket. I have to ask why do you (or anyone else here) bother to stack physical silver if you don't think that something is going to happen? To try and profit off of small movements in the price, a person would have to be buying and selling thousands of ounces at a time and it doesn't seem to be practical to move physical around like that. I have alot of other things going on and silver is just a small part, maybe as a back-up, maybe for retirement, maybe cuz it just makes me feel good to see a pile of shinny metal in the safe. I personally have more faith in silver than social security, the stock market, or even a savings account. If I thought that silver was going to bounce around between say $10 and $25 over the next 30 years (with some spikes and dips in there) I wouldn't bother. I understand that it could very well do that and thats why I am not putting everything into silver. I really would like to know why you guys stack. Why do you put money into silver and not other things? Especially physical. Sorry for the long post. Btw I already have plenty of horse s--t, cow s--t, and goat s--t.

    Just some food for thought. U.S. Government current debt is 19 trillion. U.S. Income in 2016 projected to be 6.38 trillion. This is a debt to income ratio of 2.97.
    Average Americans debt to income ratio is 1.77.
    Average Australian debt to income is 1.85.
    If you use gdp instead of revenue (which most economists recommend) then you get 1.02.

    Fixed it for you. :D

    You know you could grab a shovel, a few sacks head to a field and procur "rose food" close to free, to sell 150 bags at $3 each and you've blown away your boasted trading skills with no more risk than a stinky shovel.
    My point is I am no financial expert and I offer no trading advice to anyone BUT IN SO SAYING I could fall over a better idea whilst yawning and scratching my nuts than your trading strategy.

    People who make definite predictions should be applauded, because they
    Cause the rest of us to think, and realise just how easy it is to lose money.
    No use saying we just can't make a judgement about the future,
    When we are making bets on it.
    We must really consider and reconsider what we are doing.

    The better guesses are based on models under continuous review, i.e., predictions are made and later reviewed for accuracy, and the models are updated or refined so that better predictions can hopefully then be made. These predictions rely on a process of continual observation, criticism and adjustment.

    The worst predictions are based on dogma, and the adherents refuse uttery to listen to criticism in the face of a reality that diverges substantially from that predicted.
