Seriously £18.54 will buy 13.2 cans of soup.  
 

10 years ago silver was £23.00 and for that I could buy 46 tins of soup when they were 6 for £3 at Morrisons………I can take the P all you want but those  morons on YT saying silver is a true store of wealth who the hell are they trying to kid? 
 

Even when silver bottomed at £10 that’s still 20 tins of soup per oz that’s still 51% more soup than today.  

to keep to a the same silver tin of silver ratio today then silver has to be a minimum of £64.40 per oz. If it’s not, then it’s not keeping up with inflation so impossible to be a good store of wealth……….I don’t want to dance on anyone’s hopes and dreams and if you think I’m wrong and silver is a good store of wealth and it’s a hedge against inflation I’m 100% genuinely happy to hear it as I’m sat on loads too.  

Your advice to me last time was to stack canned baked beans, so I did !

because it has?

Common sense and a quick comparison to gold shows clearly that it hasn't.  Consider gold, which has risen from around £1285/ounce in September 2021 to 1563/ounce now, then look at silver which has risen from around £16.85 to £19.08 in the same period.  The silver spot price is deliberately kept low by crooked banking entities and even when it gets a little boost if they happen to take their eyes off the ball for five minutes it never rises more than a few pennies above £20.00/ounce and never stays at such giddy heights for long.  One day it might however, and on that day I will consider selling.

I depends when you bought, you could have picked any number of entry points to clearly show Silver outperforming Gold. I would agree Silver currently appears historically cheap in comparison to Gold but see that as a positive. Serious question, do Gold bugs imagine the G/S ratio making new ATHs ad infinitum?

I agree on your £20.00 an oz theory. but I think the actual number is $24 an oz. If it gets above this amount I don't think they'll be able to hold it back by dumping paper silver on the market.

With cash isa's now offering 4.2% flat (cash in the bank) is looking far more attractive than silver..........And just think how much you will save on postage a year?  

Until you hit your £100k limit or is that just speculation at the moment from Hunt?

The very vast majority of silver stackers are buying and holding far less than 100k of silver.  

Don't I know it! :(
