RE: How Got My Start and Why I Collect Silver/Gold

in #silver8 years ago

wish I knew or remember that magical moment when I got into stacking/collecting PM's! ....Maybe a tube of silver eagles bopped me on the head. Anyway 500oz later I am basking in the light of sound money.

500oz? Nice!!
The biggest lesson from my grandfather came with a story of depositing 300 silver dollars into his bank account. The teller wrote a check for the $300 and kept them for herself. When he asked why, she said because they're silver and the paper is just that...paper. It changed the way he viewed money and that was still back in the day of silver certificate paper.
