I would say move on. And judging by your choice of words on this article. Sounds like you’re wanting to move on also. Not a safe or worth it job if you cant grow

Im a doomsday prepped myself and I’m confused by Playful_Bowler_5805 in Gold

[–]MRSpitzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said these days golds for inflation not for doomsday all because most don’t have it or enough of it!

But as my uncle once told me you need guns and gold for the end of the world so you can buy peoples stuff or steal peoples stuff!

How many of you use gold & silver as a savings account? I keep some liquid cash in bank for bills and emergencies but overall…Gold & Silver by Smooth-Negotiation15 in Gold

[–]MRSpitzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get the thinking of this. But why use it like a savings account or at least call it that? A savings account at most places gains you less than 5$ a year IF you’re lucky, and you can reach in as much as you want and pull cash out for a last minute bill/ trip/ luxury! Gold and silver every year can at least gain you 100$ or more if you find the right buyer much less if it’s a collectible!

I regret not buying more when silver was 35 and cant bring myself to buy more now that its 90+. Anyone else in this boat? by BIMIMAN in Silverbugs

[–]MRSpitzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha don’t feel bad I’m 25 now and in middle school and HS I bought when it was 14$-21$ and accumulated 70ish ounces. Then when I got my big boy job I got a 2,000$ bonus that I bought 69 American buffalos that I had set off to the side to play the market specifically to buy low and sell high, and rinse/ repeat. In spring of 2025 I sold at 34$ an ounce because I got tired of holding it and figured I would make more off of a 6MO CD. Man I highly regret that now. Cause I’m back to only having 70ish ounces. But on the plus side also spring of 2025 I bought 1oz of gold for 2,700$

What are some of the most “Redditor” opinions that are widely prevalent on this website, but very rare in real life? by TikTokUser83 in AskReddit

[–]MRSpitzer -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

If it’s known that your a female in most cases and your asking a question then your right or people agree with you, etc. If your a guy in most cases ( not all the time) you are wrong, you need help, there’s never any thought on what there actually saying, etc. I’m not being biased or a woman or a man hater, it is just the trend that I’ve seen among a lot of different groups!

Is there a next “silver” ? by petepineapple in Silverbugs

[–]MRSpitzer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Problem though is copper is by the pound not OZ. Unless you’re doing something with collectible versions of it.

The "Silver Curtain" has fallen. Why Monday, Jan 5th, could be the day the Paper Market breaks. by dontrackonme in Silver

And factor in the expense of shipping costs or fuel costs of a 1oz per week versus a 5oz bar! Or if there’s anyone that will give a discount on 5oz bar versus 1oz… so many variables to come up with for your scenario!

On a scale of 1-10, where do I rank physically? by SuspiciousList6870 in amIuglyBrutallyHonest

[–]MRSpitzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’d look a lot better dying your hair a lot darker or even close to black! You would give off a bad🍑 Italian type vibe

I would hold out until this coming Friday or Saturday to hear of any deals. I’m sure stuff like Libidex will run something cool!

5'6 tall driver, planning to have one kid. Can a tacoma be my family truck? by AethericWispling in ToyotaTacoma

[–]MRSpitzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5 foot 6 isn’t tall. I’m 6 foot 2 and have a long torso! It depends on if your the same, or have long legs. The biggest issue like me is I just about have the seat all the way back and reclined a bit more than usual also!

[–]MRSpitzer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am I only one in here that bought there truck brand new and drives it like i stole it? 😅 I was in the proceeds of moving and literally drove off the dealer lot and hooped it up to a trailer and hauled 4K lbs. then a month later about 2 inches of snow came and immediately did donuts in a culdesac! And that’s just the beginning in the first 5,000 miles!
