New Hampshire ?!?
Oy, I was sorta hoping for something much more exotic - like Bhopal India, Czech Republic, Guinea-Bissau, or Moldova.
Well, you already know that silver investing in the USA is extremely easy, fast, and cheap - and the USDollar is strong (and will probably remain so for a long time - which is why silver is so inexpensive at the moment).
There just isn't much interest in the metals market while confidence in the Dollar remains high. But things can change quickly, and while I will never offer any investment advice to anyone, my personal interests have me buying as much silver as I can - because I don't imagine it getting much cheaper than it is now.
I am old enough to remember the near run-away inflation of the 1970s - and how the Government stopped it, by raising interest rates. And while that action caused a brief domestic recession, it also restored the faith of the world in the US Government's ability to successfully manage the Dollar as a safe and stable world currency - which in turn, led to the great prosperity of the following thirty-five years.
And though America's contributions to the world of computers, cell-phones, and internet, may have played a part in the overall economic prosperity of the time, it is the management of the Dollar, which is primarily responsible for the rising wealth of the world - even for those few countries which do not peg the value of their own currencies against the USDollar.
I know that there will always be economic emergencies, and that they will always be resolved. But we never know how long it will take for these scenarios to play out - which is why I am investing now, to take advantage of the great opportunities which always present themselves when uncertain people face uncertain times.
