I too have a bit of gold, and some moderate amount of silver. Not enough to be considered an investment or diversification vehicle, but rather as a Depression Hedge. If things get really bad, you can buy beans and rice for silver.

But among metals, I prefer copious quantities of lead and means with which to fling it.

Debt free, real estate, good dirt for growing, good fields of fire, wood and a freestanding fireplace to heat and cook on, food stocks, etc. Yeah, it’s all there..

But as an investment, I have millions of people get up in the morning and go to work to try to make me more money with their productivity. That’s where an investment can really literally WORK for you. I invest in productive humanity.

And it works well!

That investment strategy will always work......no matter the era.
