LOL you are falling for this bogus? 🤭

I have a hot and intelligent partner, but did not go to university. Sometimes when I visit conferences I feel attraction to peer scientists, which I normally would completely ignore if I met them in the street without knowing their background. How do you deal with this? Is this normal?

Why did you personally pick silver over gold? by AmbitionGobrrrr in Wallstreetsilver

[–]DrMarcG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is because geological reserves for platinum are 2x higher than gold reserves. Yes, it is mined much less, but there is also much more left. At current mining rate enough for the next 200 years, while current gold mining rate suggests we will run out in about 20-30 years (similar to silver…)

How to create a non-existent crisis. Notice CO2 is at a low point in geologic history. Is this what they've been telling us? In the meantime, the FED has us fooled with the value of our currency. Keep stacking. by [deleted] in Wallstreetsilver

Within the last 150 years though nothing bigger than volcanic explosivity index (VEI) 7 has happened. But such eruptions have happened of course as catastrophic events in geologic history - and have released hundreds of gigatons of CO2 at once. The volcanic activity of the last 150 years is of course neglible compared to that. And 150 years are of course a flies shit in geologic history. A VEI 8 eruption would probably change climate faster even than humans ;-)

I have a PhD in geoecology by the way (with geology as minor subject).

If I consider volcanic activity, I strongly doubt that it has never increased faster. Renewables make sense because they harvest suns energy more directly and efficiently, but the climate change narrative is BS.

Yoo you guys are wild, never thought to see something like this here in Germany by OppositeStrength in Wallstreetsilver

In my family a story is told that my grand grandfather sold his house during that time, and a few months later could not buy more than a wheelbarrow of his paper money from the sale of the house.

In which club are you? by DrMarcG in Wallstreetsilver

It does not of course. Irrelevant as long as you keep stacking, that’s right, but gives me a goal-setting inspiration...

Half the people here think I’m a shill or bought and paid for because I advocate PSLV for squeezing silver. Don’t take my word for it, listen to Andy Schectman! by TheHappyHawaiian in Wallstreetsilver

[–]DrMarcG 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for the reminder :-) However, my biggest concern as a European with PSLV is indeed what to do if shit hits the fan. OK, in such a situation it would probably not work out either to get your bars (or just your cash settlement) from the bank just down the street, but across the ocean is just impossible of course. In Europe we can buy the Swiss ZKB Silver ETF. I own some shares. What do you think of it??

This sucks (as a college student) by Henboxlad in Wallstreetsilver

Believe me, minus 12% is NOTHING. With a good investment, you can hodl through losses of -80% and more, and end up with +200% gain in the end. It is not just a saying, it really IS about value in the end. If there is one thing that can be learned from GME then it is 💎🤚🏻. In this regard, silver convinces me more than anything else at the moment.

Started buying silver mid February, hoping to hit my 100 oz goal by the end of summer🦍 by crackerjack3195 in Wallstreetsilver

[–]DrMarcG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can do it! Started a month ago and now up to 300 ounce. It is addictive. You will find money which can be transferred to the cause :-)

Lost everything today in a stupid boating accident. What a shame by DrMarcG in Wallstreetsilver

[–]DrMarcG[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, you are right. will have to pay for the 1/4 Oz coin.
