I had a plan when I started, but some aspects of it have changed over time. It’s good advice to start with a plan, but it’s unrealistic to think it won’t need tweaking. The need to tweak a plan doesn’t need to mean it’s a mistake, it may mean goals have changed. Whether they changed because we are learning or life throws a pivot at you, it doesn’t matter. We could all be farther ahead with 20/20 hindsight. You are a little too hard on yourself. 🙂 I have decided not to rectify my “mistakes”, I just have those earmarked for “what I will sell/trade” first. It’s not worth any premiums it will cost me, plus I’m a little lazy. 😂

After watching a lot of 2is1 yt videos I think the most conservative, durable and responsible option to stack is the 1oz eagle. Just makes sense and if you can’t afford it keep saving.

I don’t want to hand down bullion, I want to hand down a collection. I am building my Double Eagle Liberty set. Most common dates are a hair above bullion in cost, so why not! They have the value of gold ALONG with collectibility, rarity and history. That’s my play.

Double eagles are much more available in BU than you would think, too. Most were held as bank reserves during the gold standard, sitting in bags in vaults for decades rather than going into circulation like lower denominations of coins. Many were sent to sit in European vaults before 1933 and returned to the US for collectors later, still in mint state. It is only the Libs that avoided bag marks (MS 64-65 and higher) that should carry a premium over a modern Gold Eagle.

I'm buying gold not necessarily for an shtf scenario, but rather for building up my pension pot over the next decade or two. Or for buying a second property either here or abroad.

The sound and bling bling of the coins are part of the game! Some people forget we need a super nova and a couple of billion years to get the gold atoms over here on Earth! and then our grand fathers (to power of 10 or 20) had to dig this up and refine it from other substances all around.

Hit my goals so now it just a percentage of my surplus. No reason to freak out. Now im shifting to my real estate plan to buy commercial properties as prices fall.

@@nooneimportant779 Very true and potentially very dangerous advice. Debt is mostly American effective hedge against inflation if the asset is appreciating, your income is keeping up with inflation, and the market is in a high inflationary state, otherwise it’s not a good hedge IMO. My business professor suggested to buy the biggest most expensive home with as little down so you can maximize wealth growth. Many people that followed that sentiment were wrecked between 2008 and 2010. Debt is not my preferred hedge against inflation, gold is. Gold is the ultimate wealth insurance, personal debt is bondage IMO. I want out of personal debt as soon as possible. Yes, inheritance is awesome, but most don’t revive enough to retire let alone pay of a personal residence. So saving, investing, and education are key. I believe everyone should wait to buy a home until they can afford to put down at least 20% otherwise rent. Once you do buy, pay an extra payment of principle a month (what you can afford) get a 30 year loan with a plan to pay it off in 15. The 30 years is to protect you from foreclosure with lower payments if needed. You should also have at least 3-6 months of payments saved as an emergency fund. If you can’t do that, your not ready to buy. For investments, leverage them to the extent they still cash flow. Buying investments for their appreciation is not a game I’m willing to play. It’s 100% about cash flow. Just don’t personally guarantee them. It’s also possible to be creative and put little to no personal cash into a real estate deal. Of course this is my opinion from my decades of experience and more conservative approach. I’m not a gambler looking to take crazy risks.

It's really bad in the digital asset space. To the point that I only focus on a couple of coins, namely BTC and ADA, because they are decentralized and have a specific purpose.

I look at it this way, we're about to see a CBDC be introduced, and with it, the level of control over us that we have never seen. People should consider stacking silver and gold so they have an ability to live in a parallel economy don't you think? Right now there are several states who are looking to remove tax from the purchase of precious metals as well as for gold and silver to be treated as a form of currency. Look at states like Missouri and Minnesota. I want what you're saying to be right as I have most of my friends who feel the way that you do, but if I'm wrong, I still have something that won't be worth zero. The same can't be said for the federal reserve note backed by nothing. Look at places like Venezuela and Lebanon. I love your videos and you do have some valid points, but every fiat currency always eventually fails and with 31T attached to the us dollar and places like Europe and Japan about to collapse, that time could be coming soon.

@@2is1gold IMO, "boring" is what happens when I hear the hysteria, fear mongering, and people telling us to hurry and buy gold or silver... almost always from them. It's really good to just stop, take a step back, breathe, and consider that the sky really isn't falling. Could it? Sure, anything is possible. But the more radical a situation is presented to be, the less likely it is to occur. Yes, you can quote me on that. lol Because of this, I prepare for the things that seem most likely by putting most of the money I have into those things with a little dedicated to a few long-shot potential problems. This seems sensible to me and, hopefully, to others on here as well. The part that irks me most is that there are *excellent* reasons for stacking that have nothing to do with hype and hysteria. They have to do with math and the non-sustainability of anyone, whether individual, group, business, or any level of gubment spending more than they have on a continuous basis. That said, I can see where we will be having some hard times in the not too distant future. During those times, it will be of critical importance to have hard assets that do not crater like the markets sometimes do. When we have bills to pay, it won't matter to those to whom we owe the money whether or not our stocks, bonds, or real estate are doing well and we can sell them for a profit. All they will be interested in is us paying them what we owe them, in full and on time. Also, if we "own" a home, it is critically important that we be able to pay our property taxes, so that we don't add homelessness to any other problems. I strongly agree with keeping one's stack relatively simple. But this IS a personal choice and we don't all make the same choices, especially with something as variable as stacking. For gold, I have: Maples, Eagles, and a few Britannias. For silver, I have Eagles, Maples, and US 90% silver coins - mostly in $100 face bags but also some tubes, including dimes, quarters, halves, and dollars. Love the Kennedy halves and Morgan dollars. But smaller denomination coins are good too. Gotta have those dimes / quarters for my SHTF daily bread and soup rations. 😆

Greetings, fellow retiree. Welcome to the best part of life. This too was one of my major life goals and I started preparing for it at the age of 31. After 24 years of planning and saving, it arrived in late 2004. The sense of freedom from the demands of working for a living are... intoxicating! I started stacking after 2008 showed me how vicious a bear market can be. I made it through that market via not selling a single share and by buying more shares as I could. All of the money I "lost" in 2008 came roaring back in 2009-2010... and then some. Anyway, I agree that it is not difficult to become so goal oriented that we can become disoriented when we finally achieve that goal. With stacking, I have completed my silver stacking goals plus more, so only buy silver when I can get a good deal on something I find really attractive, such as Kennedy half dollars and Morgan dollars. Other than that, I only stack gold these days, usually buying 2-5 ozs. ever quarter. I buy less when prices are high and more when they fall but I am always buying some. Yes, we truly do live in some interesting times. Agree on trading silver for gold when the opportunity presents itself favorably. A sub-40:1 GSR would do it for me.

Excellent shit. You and CPM GROUP are the only youtube content creators shooting it straight re precious metals and their realistic trajectories. You should highlight these facts much more. (The shiny is always appreciated too) :)

It is important to understand that the value of gold is primarily based on risk, fear, and economic stability. To say that things haven't happened when predicted in the past, then they won't happen to any degree of certainty now is not the best way to see it. The plan needs to be bigger than buying precious metals. Asset allocation across a wide group of asset classes (stocks, bonds, real estate, commodities, and others) based on current economic risk is the key to everything. If you haven't realized it yet, we're in deep economic trouble. The chickens are coming home to roost for decades of mismanagement of the economy and easy answers no longer exist. Maybe the planets didn't line up in the past, but they're close to lining up now. As a diversification, silver is a good asset to own, but gold is the asset to have in the precious metals class. Rather than using silver to buy things, you could trade gold for whatever stable currency there is and then spend it quickly to buy what you need if inflation is hot. I recommend buying gold as economic conditions warrant it. At times it may be a necessity to buy more and other times it may be better to buy less or none or even sell some.

I think everyone are stacking for different reasons. The prepper truly believes in some kind of collapse, it’s up to the people watching to do their due diligence and figure out why they are buying precious metals. I started stacking because I’m a prepper, now It’s more of a savings for me. I understand what you’re talking about though and agree with your method of buying metals. Thanks again for another great video 🤙🏾

Thanks. Always appreciate your rational thoughts. I’ll pick up some silver here and there, but I’m not planning to stack it. I’ll get one Maple (complete), one Reverse Proof Morgan and Peace dollar set, a Kookaburra (complete), eight Britannias with Charles’ effigy (already have eight with Liz) with intent to gift as pairs next Christmas. Should be one or two more Germania Allegories released in 2023. Occasional generic purchases but plan to limit silver to ten oz. per month. Gold. Finish out my 4 states Goldbacks collection (complete). Buy one 1/10 oz. Kangaroo (complete), Kookaburra (complete), and Britannia with Charles’ effigy. Already have Liz. Pick up a good quality pre-33 Double Eagle as my birthday present to myself. Stack 1/4 oz. gold with hard goal of 12 and soft goal of 15 to finish a tube. Pre-33/AGE preferred, but Maple or Britannia are OK for cost averaging (4 of 12). After that, stack dollars to take advantage of the continuing recession, coming 40%+ stock market correction and a crash in demand for quality numismatics.

There have been gold spikes for years. However most people call them crowns or tiaras. I have never been one to want to get rich quick from gold because a lot of it would be in nominal terms implying a financial issue. That isn't really about prosperity. Its just a very cost effective way to have a liquid asset without counter party risk. If one does not think financial crime is on the rise , well maybe they never heard the name Whitney Webb or Bill Still for example. Yes the US empire might be shrinking. So did the Byzantine empire. over a thousand years. Even at its zenith safety was relative. Safe behind their walls they decided it was safe enough to have chariot riots . The US has recently felt very secure in dividing itself,

"Invest" in neither. Save value for the future in gold, speculate (or save if you can't afford gold) with silver. Either one develops discipline and awareness how you spend money. Both will go up and down, a lot, trending upwards but not necessarily when you need to sell it (but the stock market isn't any more reliable).

You could invest in mines or futures or options. Its possible, if thats what you want and if you accept the risk. Physical is not investing though, I agree.

Curious. Why did you choose to trade in your 1/4 pieces for 1oz pieces?

@2is1gold

Жыл бұрын

Initially, it was based on what my local shop had at the shop. They never had quarters and always had 1 oz. Once I had the 1 oz, the quarters seemed less impressive maybe. It became a rhythm and that had as much to do with it as anything. I'd buy 3 quarters and then my 4th purchase would be to size it up to a 1 oz. In those years, the premiums weren't nearly as distinct as they are now. Cheers!

I applaud the logical and disciplined approach but I still feel like the kid in the candy store looking at all the different gold coins available! I love the thought of hopefully never having to sell my gold and one day down the road, having a mini treasure chest of all kinds of different gold coins to show the kids or grandkids. For me its sort of like the grown up version of my baseball card collecting days of the 80s, except gold beautifully captures all those days of hard work and preserves that hard work into wealth that can become generational! (that said, if it comes in a slab and its not super rare, then I also set it free😉).

Have a good weekend!

Truly excellent video and a very welcome counterpoint to the bulk of gold and silver videos on KZread. You have a sound strategy that is right for you (and minimizes the constant distractions and the newest shiny objects). Mine is completely different, but is right for me. I am not a stacker for two main reasons 1) I do not believe the S will hit the F in my lifetime (I'm quite a bit older than you) and being brutally realistic about it, if it does I will die. 2) I can't see paying high premiums for metal I would pay to have stored in a vault anyway. If it is going to be in someone else's vault, it may as well be in GLD and SLV, which are incredibly liquid with one cent bid/ask spreads. One cent! Personally, I believe the prospectus more than I believe people who say the metal isn't there (and who, by the way, want to sell me high priced coins). To those who say "If you don't hold it you don't own it" I say "If you own enough to really matter, you own too much to hold yourself." Besides, I can get my fix of looking at beautiful gold coins by watching your videos. Keep 'em coming!
