the question you dont want to ask

[craig12]

ok i know i do start a lot of threads but i had a brainwave tonight as i dont think this subject has never come up     my answer £1060 

 

ohh the question 

how much have you spent all together on silver /gold in total   since you began collecting/stacking

[craig12]

dont worry your other half dosent know your log in details

[HelpingHands]

I dont know. Some five digit figure.

[Kman]

Hmm bit personal

 

I've spent no more than I could afford to lose, so If gold went to 0 tomorrow it would suck, but wouldn't effect my quality of life.

[Shamatti]

I have no idea. Spent, swapped, sold bought - after 2 years? Anybodies guess. Rather a lot I expect.

[ukstack]

some people will just put maby1-2k into it and some willing to put 50-60k maby more into it see videos on youtube with stacks over 300k large :{} 

 

Personally its all down to income vs disposable income 

 

Myself iv got a target and when i hit my target per oz ill sit on the bulk of it and just bought semi collectable coins as and when 

 

But my target allows me to cash out and be able to retire with digits in the bank in 20-30-40 years :]

[Bullion World]

Too much. I became an addict and had to go seek help at Stackers Anonymous. I've been clean for 4 weeks now.

[Cointreau]

Over 25k. No regrets.

[garthy]

Far too much but then again not enough.....

[motorbikez]

If you are talking just about physical coins, I have spent rather a lot, £2457 so far this month,what I have spent since I started collecting I'll keep to myself, but it is fairly substantial and as Kman it wouldn't make the slightest difference to me if gold and silver went to 0 it is an interesting enjoyable hobby to me and I can enjoy it more in the winter months when my bike is off the road.

This must be the best answer so far!

[HelpingHands]

Maybe you should change the title of this thread to:

'the question you dont want to answer'

[MickB]

The amount i have spent within the last year makes me wish i had spent the same amount ten years ago. Then I'd have more to show for my money!

[Pipers]

I've been buying Gold for a long time, and stacking for a few years so, I'll keep that information to myself thank you.

 

Its not how much a person has spent but how much a person can afford to spend, then over the years it mounts up!  

 

So a person on minimum wage might only be able to buy 2 silver coins at a time per month or 25 coins per year, to him/her this may be a bigger achievement than other people spending thousands each year.
