This guy agrees, but has one question.
Silver and gold have been, for the past few years, a stable investment, not rising or falling very far. I got out mainly because I wanted new wheels for my 2013 Dodge Challenger R/T. I consider them a gift from my father. If I start hearing more about the Fed I may reinvest. As far as coin collecting only the dealers make any money.

I sold a few ounces recently as well. I had a small amount with an online international gold storage company. Some EU changes left them unable to service US cardholder accounts.
I was forced to sell before my card expired and since one reason I opened the account in the first place, was because I could go online, sell a few grams, fill my debit card, and use it to make purchases, I just sold everything I had stored with them.
They keep telling me they're working on other arrangements, but I haven't seen anything to that effect. Then there is the IRS requirement to file a form that you have an offshore account, or if you forget, they're gonna fine you 100K(?) and 10 years(?) in fed lockup! Our founders must be rolling over in their graves.
If we ever lose the ability to have some sort of fungible exchange on our person, we're screwed as a race of beings. Forever after we'll become the slaves of the worst king of humanity possible - if we're not there already!
