Gold and silver are not investments, by definition. You are speculating, in currency. A foreign currency, essentially.

Don’t get me wrong, speculating can be very, very profitable, there’s nothing wrong with it. But it isn’t investing. Words mean things. You can also lose money investing. But Websters sez investing is “something other than money, designed or hoped to provide a return.” Like stocks, or a business or a rental property. An investment provides income. Just my .02c. In Silver ;)
