[QUOTE="yukonjack, post: 3148004, member: 2939"] You do realize that some of us that put precious metals aside have been doing so long before the Internet was invented and the hucksters put out their commercials? This isn't something new. After they quit minting silver coins in 1964 my great grandparents started saving them. They immigrated from Russia in 19O5 and lived through the Great Depression and Dust Bowl. None of us knew until after they passed. They hid them in different places around the house and put each of their children's names on the containers they were stored in. Maybe they knew something, eh? I still have the fruitcake tin that was full of silver dimes that my grandmother passed on to me. Never have I bought at market value. Either traded, bartered or bought from folks that needed quick cash. And what gold I have I mined in Alaska myself. And how will I pay for that loaf of bread? Silver dimes, quarters or half dollars. Or maybe instead of paying for it I'll just bake it myself since I know how to do that. Say what you will but I bet my preparations for whatever calamity may arise for me, my children or grandchildren are much more diversified then yours. Never be so closed minded that you can't see the possibilities. [/QUOTE]
