    Howdy,

    I just started stacking because of a game where I won some silver coins and bars and well, one thing led to another and here I am. I am not much of a gambler but started doing some reading up on silver collecting after I had won some and what an eye opener. So now instead of bidding $60 on a 5 oz bar I just go out and buy 3 1oz rounds.

    I have been watching a bunch of YouTube vids and am learning a lot. I will say, based on what I have learned from the videos, that I am a bullion stacker over a mnemonic stacker (if I can't say it or spell it, I ain't doin' it). I got lucky on some premium coins but am leaning toward stacking 1 - 5 oz Silver bars over rounds or premium coins. I did by a gram of Platinum because I love Platinum and won 1/10 oz gold so will look into 1/2 oz gold bars or rounds as funds come available.

    I am also leaning toward future earnings vs flipping. I know it'll never be enough to live on but if I can use it in emergency or a nice vacation, I think precious metals will return more than an IRA or Savings account ever will.

    I have a couple of questions but will put them in the Q&A board.

    I am looking forward to getting to know you all and exploring this new hobby.

    Moon
