Thanks! It has been invigorating to know more about the future of silver and gold. When and if you can come down and see us even thou going to be short, there are things I need to know more about , our paper money when it goes down the drain, and I still have money in the bank, how will that work for me? I also understand that the government says you can only spend 30 percent of your worth, when you by gold. It’s mind bogeling, I’m going to be 80 years old next year I just want to do right by my children for their future.
First off, glad you figured out how to comment, now to your questions. The beauty of buying gold and silver coins right now, is they can’t be tracked. In other words, you do not have to fill out any paper work to buy or sell gold and silver. You can just walk into a coin shop and give them your money and buy coins, or go sell coins at anytime, no questions asked. A lot of the gold dealers you see running tv ads tout this fact in their ads. So if you had, let’s say, $50,000 or $100,000 in the bank, first we’d say, “you go girl!”, Â but then if you wanted to buy gold, you could walk into a shop and just buy it. Now if it were me, I wouldn’t buy too much at the same shop just as a security precaution. You don’t want anyone knowing what or how much you buy. I’d probably go buy 5 ounces of gold at various shops which is about $8500 and make a point of telling the shop that you are buying these to give one to each of your grandkids. This way no one thinks an 80 year old lady has lots of gold coins laying around her house. And by all means, do not show any id or give anyone your address. This whole concept is known as OPSEC meaning Operational Security which is a military term basically meaning, keep your business to yourself or don’t tell anyone anything about your finances or anything valuable. If you’d like to get some, I can certainly help by getting you a referral from a reputable dealer here. In any case, you’re doing the right thing questioning the long term sustainability of our currency.
Now to the day, it’s a freakin mess around here. The misses is tearing the place apart, cleaning and rearranging for the party. I don’t see how we can make it to the party in Colorado Springs tonight. We might have to opt out. The boys are well and all is good. The oldest guys band concert is tomorrow night at 7:30 pm, right smack dab in the middle of the Bronco game, but of course, I’ll be there. This morning the misses gets her hair done and I get mine trimmed at 9am.
It looks like we’ll finally get some snow around here, especially in the mountains which really need it. Lots going on in the World from tsunami radiation wreckage showing up on the shores of Hawaii to earthquakes to the fiscal cliff to I think Princess Kate in England having morning sickness. Man do I hope we don’t have 9 months of baby coverage on tv! What’s wrong with our society.
It’s now 5:30 so time to run. Hope all’s well with everyone. Oh crap, here’s the hospital on tv now where Princess Kate is staying, whoo hoo!
God Bless
Thank you for the lovely comments, Grandma Eleanor.
