Was Buying Silver and Gold A VERY BAD Idea?

No, it’s a great savings vehicle. Whether it’s a good investment or not, is a quirk of timing.

It's been a perfect way of turning easily spent money into something I couldn't spent. Also I've always been a bit of a collector and hoarder, so gold is great for me. 

Any new gold, is good gold for me 

The Silver price has gone down because there is a reduced industial demand.  hold on tight. 

I would like to say no one knows where the price is going though the ratio with Gold is interesting for vault account holders.  

As everyone knows In the real world Physical silver is sold at a massive % above spot in the UK after taking into account vat.  Even on the forum silver is expensive and i would say its very competative on here.
