Is the government reaction to the pandemic just a ploy to cover up a pending collapse of the U.S. dollar ?

Questions about buying precious metals -

What's the best to buy, gold or silver?

If I was to buy precious metal, can I just add it to my Roth/IRA or should I physically hold on to the coins/bars myself?

Where's the best, safest most trustworthy place to buy precious metals?

Ultimately, if SHTF, precious metals are only worth what someone wants to pay for them?

I wouldn’t trust paper silver. I only hold physical. And not where I live. Lol.

I go to a bullion dealer. You have to find one you can trust though.

You want to find one that doesn’t charge heavy premiums.

For example, the guy I go to usually sells silver at spot price plus 5%. Pretty unheard of rate, though. Since Covid he’s spot plus 10%. I haven’t bought though. I got in cheap years ago.

He buys at spot. Maples or USA oz coins it’s spot plus $2.

Fair I think. Hard to find a fair dealer. (Dealer.. the irony)

Make sure your dealer has a tester. PMI machine. Positive Material Identification. (XRF analyzer). Wouldn’t buy if I couldn’t verify. More fakes with large bars. Oz’s are rarely faked but it does happen.

I have personal access to XRF/PMI and other restricted analytical tools so I’m not concerned with fakes.

As far as SHTF. The precious metal you want is lead, and lots of it.

Yeah, if covid hits hard again there we will be seeing bare shelves at Walmart most probably.

And speaking of China, big eye opener on the worlds dependence on them for goods. Too bad we've lost so many Canadian industries to China and abroad. I'd like to hope our current government would address this, but at this point we're almost a vassal state for China, so I can't see that happening.

You can bet china is stacking gold. Also notice even modern zinc coinage doesnt say "federal reserve token".

Lol, yeah gold plated tungsten bars.

XRF is useless for this. Gotta start drilling holes unless you have access to radiography equipment.

Are you insinuating that I should block you, or??? If that's the case, I'd rather actually have an on topic conversation with you.

And with that being said, I apologize for snapping at you.

I knew you would make me regret it. I'm not surprised, after all you are an unemployable halfwit.

Have you ever considered that your problems with employment is your attitude? God forbid if a prospective employer saw your posts here. I hope you don't act like this on your social media account. But then again, you're not that bright are you?

@DrKiz see? i even got a 'like' out of you..now that you've calmed down go back to @Rob Roy post and you'll see he opened the door regarding the pandemic. Look at what i highlighted and the portion before..therefore, not off topic and completely within debate rules.

the 'retard' comment was my hommage to @UncleBuck wherever he may be :cry:

we're all friends here.

@londonfog i miss you:hug:

Fair enough. It just seems EVERY post turns into a Trump post. It sucks, I'm not even American. You attacked me once... remember calling me a Trumptard or Trumper for asking a question? We have our own leadership issues here.

It would be nice to have a conversation without it always turning into a shit show. Everyone is so polarized.

Unclebuck? I blocked him. Only person I have. He brings nothing to the table.
