   This week I learned the biggest downside to physical silver stacking is that as price volatility rises, liquidity from coin shops dries up completely. That's a bit of a problem when you just got slammed with a few grand worth of bills you need to pay.

     APMEX threw a $72 quote at me a couple days ago when spot was still above $87. I probably should've just taken it lmao.

     @Hoss do you stack coins? which kind?
     I like having one coin from many types, which is bad stacking practice, but I don't intend to liquidate it anyway

     I'm not going to dump my stack, but I am resigning myself to get jewed on the spread letting go of all small piece of it since I need liquidity now and I'd rather not pull it from my equity positions.

     Now is the time to jump out of PM's if anybody is locking in these prices.

     I'll take it into consideration. I'm up by a lot, like 80-300% in some cases, but considering inflation...... Less than that for real spending power.

     Just me talking. Yea.
     
     Remember in the '08 crisis and PM prices spiked for a few years? I'm guessing we're in a high point, so now would be a selling time.

     I ended up dumping 50 Britannias for $63. Couldn't be helped, I needed cash. Still sold for a solid profit.

     Metals or gems only work as long-term investments, you keep them to weather collapse or instability

     Which is why the majority of my investments are in commodity sector equities, easier to get in and out of even on thin order books compared to physical.

     I keep as little in cash as possible. This has served me well for years, I've managed without having to liquidate anything up until now.

     yes inflation eats it but it's better than having to liquidate your investments

     Much of my financial strategy has been facilitated with credit, which admittedly seems somewhat paradoxical given my contempt towards the banking system. In practice, I exploit it as much as possible without paying toll to banker kikes, which means I always pay off outstanding balances in full and exploit 0% APR intro promos so I can take advantage of the liquidity consumer credit provides without ever giving them a dime in interest.

     I liquidated less 10% of my stack from shit I bought in the low-20s. Did I get jewed? Yeah, I did. But I'd rather get jewed on trimming physical than trim from my mining that are undervalued relative to spot appreciation.

     Considering my hours got cut this year, in all likelihood the long-term capital gains income from the sale will remain under the poorfag limit and I'll pay 0% :marseycheers:

     Yeah, I did. Objectively, it still worked out. I ran lean on cash for years and this was the first time it became a problem. I've still profited from the strategy even after the sudden haircut.

     It can't be helped. Obviously, I'd prefer to sell nothing. Unfortunately, life put me in a situation where I had to triage my positions.
