    'Factory seconds'

    I have a couple of the Southern Cross, and they are very beautiful, but a nice clean Perth Mint bar has it's own down home kind of quirky charm. I'm waiting on an order of ten 10oz PM bars from BB, I'm thinking that they would have to be brand new shiny bars straight out of the oven after a six...

    I tried to short silver.

    Thought it said you tried to snort silver. That's a no-no.

    -30?

    We've all recently had at least two great opportunities to buy, ie Bulliondeals group buy and the new and sexy SC bars. Seems everyone was very keen to jump in and spend a bit of cash regardless of the spot price. That's the way I've been looking at it recently. Spot may go much lower, but you...

    -30?

    Nup. Had enough of this milling around. Let's go. Time for a nice long, steady climb. Everyone was happy when the price went up every day. It was good, it was fun, it was positive! Everyone loved each other. Remember? I want everyone to be happy again! C'mon everyone! Chins up! Let's reach for...

    Somebody missing something.............?

    I like this bit: "Hmmm. Didn't you guys dig up 400 gold sovereigns?" "Ahhh, no. Who told you that? Look, there's only 300. Yep, that's right, only 300..." "So, what's in your pockets?" "Nothing. Just loose change. Had a big win on the pokies..." :lol:

    How would you spend $10K on gold & silver

    50/50 by weight. Very tricky for 10 grand! *tries again...* OK, maybe 7 oz gold and 7 oz silver works pretty well. Not much of a silver fix though. Aiming more for 50/50 by value. See how we go.

    How would you spend $10K on gold & silver

    Yeah, was also thinking about all gold... less bulky, less volatile price-wise, set and forget kinda thing. 1 oz gold coins eh? But as you say silver can out perform in short to medium term. AAUUUGGGHH!! IT'S ALL TOO MUCH!!!! Maybe I'll just give him $10k cash and tell him to go and have a good...

    How would you spend $10K on gold & silver

    Thanks all. Much food for my thoughts. I guess ten years is considered longer term than I thought. The recipient in question is only 14 years old, so I considered it to be medium term for him. The thing is, he doesn't get to touch it for several years, so it does need to be a low maintenance...

    How would you spend $10K on gold & silver

    Hmmm. Sounds cool. That would, however, involve a bit of a learning curve for me, being that I don't fully understand any of what you said. Maybe later on though... :/ All kilos? Maybe. Did want to score some gold too. I do get that would provide the most oz for the bucks. Thanks. Taken on...

    How would you spend $10K on gold & silver

    I reckon around ten years. Not really sure how medium that is, maybe tending long? ] Ah, the dragons. Seems a hot topic round here. Not available till September I think. May be too late... maybe save some until they arrive? Maybe even some well selected numismatics. Thanks Blake17, will...

    How would you spend $10K on gold & silver

    Greetings SStackers. I find myself in a situation where I have about ten thousand Aussie bucks with which to make a clever medium term investment (or at least look like I have), on behalf of a friend. Having spent a bit of time hanging around this forum, and already having a bit of a stack of...

    Availability of 10oz silver bars - Perth Mint

    No need for such sarcasm, we all know the real reason: The Chinese government were so upset that Ben Bernanke had killed Osama Bin Laden, that they had the COMEX manipulate the price of silver down to the point where the Perth Mint thought it was completely worthless, and threw all their silver...

    looks like a dead cat bounce

    The price madness doesn't bother me too much, cause I ain't selling. I've never sold any silver, the only coin I ever sold was a 1996 Don Bradman that I bought for $35 and sold for around $300. But he wasn't even silver. Just a slow and steady stacker here. :)

    I was gonna say I couldn't find a pic of a 1 oz silver Tweety Bird coin, but ten seconds on Google and... May have to change my avatar. :/
