for ease of passing on you could always get a member of your family who shows an interest to sit with you and navigate this site and if something does happen then leave them your pw etc and they can post questions on here and get advice on selling the stack...

no-one would let your family get ripped off.. 

this is great advice and something i think more members should do - especially those who are over the hill, I’m sure there are plenty!

Even if selling on the forum was a bit daunting for a family member, there is no better place to get advice.

you would be surprised at how many back street pawn/gold shops would take advantage of someones greif and buy a shed load of gold at rip off prices.
 

Forum members always have each others backs, kinda wierd when it’s just a bunch of (mostly men) sat on the internet who never meet lol.

also rather than a member just go silent it would be nice to know if something happened to them

Kind of dificult - impossible - to give investment advice without knowing your full circumstances, but im not really sure it’s investment advice you’re asking for - just PM advice.

Sovereigns have to be the EASIEST gold coin to shift/value. Just buy bullion sovs. If you/family are unsure of value either multiply current 1oz spot price by 0.235 OR just look on websites like atkinsons for a price.

As others have mentioned - don’t just rely on gold. Think about any debt you may have and other ways you can improve your financial position over the next 20 years.

The forum had some very knowledgeable people, and also some varying opinions - learn, and then develop your own opinion on what’s going to work for you. Good luck 👍

The 2018 Perth Mint dragon and phoenix has to be one of my favourite coins available and it doesn’t disappoint

This, and the dragon & tiger are 2 coins i wish i owned

Bank holiday 🤷‍♂️ 

Thanks for that info really helpful 👍 

Im  curious but how many bullion sovs are there if you had a continuous date run to todays date? 

I don’t want my gold cute, i want it terrifying

I was thinking more Scarface machine gun martha vibes tbh

Niceeeee set (free bump)

He’s not….when he does, sounds like there will be some deals on the forum!

23 years and I've finally called it a day.

I tip my hat to you young 'uns @AuricGoldfinger @katyc @modofantasma? you have the drive and the energy to slog on!

It's not the game it once was 😐

Selling up? I don’t blame you if you’ve had enough!

What tipped you over the edge or is your gold stack worth so much now to hell with property?

Finally got around to visiting the gold stack today and topping it up with my remaining gold purchases. 

Added a few more sovs and a double, a 1oz Brit, and used this spare valcambi box I had to keep my proof jubilee sov sets and singles separated. Will add the memorial proof set to the valcambi box once, if ever they turn up

Niceee how many ozs?

Mathematically depends what return you generate from ISA on average... Personally would pay off mortgage before stacking. 

Beyond the maths some people like the feeling of being mortgage free which has a value. 

What about earn more pay off mortgage and keep ISA and stack?

TAX is my enemy here. Not saying I don’t want to earn more given the opportunity but I’ve been getting taxed through my eyeballs so getting rid of my mortgage is a fair few thousand a year I can keep in my company or at least be more tax efficient with - most likely will make pension contributions with the money to further reduce my tax liability.

All for the maths but i think the feeling of being mortgage free will also be very satisfying in the current climate.

Hmm hadnt really thought about it like that. Think half from each at least i still have a bit in both. Plus i wont have to touch the invested part of my ISA which is currently down £5k 🙄 and also cant put any more money in my isa than i already do so I can’t actually replace that money

like @Mtaybar said i can start buying back straight away with no limits on the gold

Waiting for a dip on the gold part of course!

Pay off your mortgage with all of your ISA keeping as much gold as you can. Will save you paying interest on your loan.

Your ISA is Fiat its loosing over 10% of it's buying power , gold is keeping up with inflation.

Im torn as to whether i want to sell half my stack half my ISA and pay off my mortgage. Hard to let go though as it can always go up!
