I personally prefer coins (for gold), and whichever of them for silver

I am asking a question for which an accurate answer probably does not exist. Let's assume a "western country", like the UK, but it could be the USA, Germany or France. And let's not take into account just investors but "normal people". What's the percentage of the population stacking precious metals?

Looks wonderful

Fantastic. Well written 🙂

I voted for Buying Gold & Silver, but I'm also positioned in cash

That is my silver. I've started stacking 2 years ago and I'm in my mid 30ies. I'm wondering how much space will it take me when it's time for retirement.

Stacking goals for 2020? As Napoleon would say while planning a campaign "We start, then see what happens".

Thank you very much for the answers. I've always been skeptical about the safe deposit boxes. I've read so many bad rumors about personal belongings being stolen from private safe deposit boxes. Perhaps I am just paranoid

Good evening. I'm an Italian citizen living and working in U.K. since 5 years. I'm 34 y.o., and I didn't know anything about PM until a couple of years ago, when I've started allocating a significan part of my savings in physical gold and silver.

I've always been using mostly cash. I use the card for the payments about which I don't have alternatives (flights/hotels for the holidays, buying PM's onlines and so on and so forth). My standard practice is withdrawing cash at the cash machine at the beginning of the month. If it is sufficient, I put the redundant cash in the "pygghi bank". If it's not, I withdraw again. Due to my status (EU citizen living in United Kingdom) I hold a good portion of my portfolio in cash of both the currencies (British pound and Euros), and cash gets along with my precious metals. I am slowly reaching
