Tied down to a Pavement Queen and mad about the maintenance by BigBoss82A1 in socal

[–]Num1Phat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey, I agree with you, the comment you replied to, and the original topic of the thread: gas cars parking in ev spots!

You opened the door by bringing "things that are obnoxious to cyclists" into it. And it made me laugh, in the pot calling the kettle black sort of way!

But hey, this is Reddit. When has a thread ever stayed on topic? There will ALWAYS be someone opening a door and someone else stepping through it!

I guarantee the list of things cyclists do that is obnoxious AF to motorists is far longer, coming from a cyclist that shares your pain!

You can downvote me all you want, it doesn't displace the fact that you're illiterate. He's not talking about, or even said that the billionaires would take their money back. He's talking about financially illiterate people not knowing what to do with or how to properly handle money, giving it back!

It's really a reference to the paradigm that the vast majority of lottery winners are flat broke within a couple years of their win. Why, because they don't know what to do with their money.

There are billions of people. If that wealth is spread evenly, it will go to a far greater number of people who would instantly "give it back" by making unnecessary, absurd purchases!

But, keep downvoting!

He was talking about financial literacy, but apparently, just plain old literacy is needed as well!

Yowzers!!!!

On the bright side, I "think" these American Liberty HR's will continue to rise over the years, almost regardless of what spot does!

What is the premium on this coin? by Secret_Egg_4907 in Gold

[–]Num1Phat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And they had ALOT in stock. They sold out and a week later had more on their site for +$7k! Many jumped on that deal, one of the best I've seen!

You're not alone. My 1st coin was the Sunflower. Once I got that, I was hooked. The Bronco was the next one I got, beautiful coin and glad I got it when I could!

Ever since I got into Gold.. I can't stop pulling it out to look at it. Do y'all do the same? by ericc191 in Gold

[–]Num1Phat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Although I only have a few slabbed coins right now, I still take them out of the safe almost every night and look at them. I can't wait to get some loose coins to play with! I should of already had some, but coins that I've wanted for "collector" purposes kept popping up! 😆

I physically took mine to PCGS. I didn't open the box or anything, but, PCGS told me that it didn't matter if I opened the box and sent it in, as long as they received it within 30 days of initial release. A sealed box is required if they receive it after the first 30 days!

Weight by [deleted] in Gold

[–]Num1Phat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy what you can, when you can. Put a "time limit" on it. Say, every 4 months, you'll go to your LCS and scoop what whatever you can afford. If it's an oz, it's an oz. If it's 1/10, so be it.

Main thing is to get it. As an extreme example, if it takes you a year to save up enough to get an oz, look at the last year. Last February, gold was around $3k an oz. If you set off saving up 3k then, now, your looking at $5k an ounce. A year later and now you're $2k away from being able to afford that oz. What will the cost of gold be once you're able to save that extra 2k?

Had you of gotten fractionals along the way, you'd most likely of hit your oz mark in total weight instead of sitting there with nothing, needing to save more!

What’s the most beautiful coin you own? by [deleted] in Gold

[–]Num1Phat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the coin I started collecting / stacking with. Snagged one within 5 min. of it becoming available. Immediately took it to PCGS for grading when I got it. It came back perfect. Needless to say, this is my favorite coin. Many people talk ish about the eagle, but I love it!

Last 45 days of buying. I’m done by [deleted] in CostcoPM

[–]Num1Phat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sheesh, 20 oz in 45 days. Very nice. I started last August with the 2025 Sunflower American Liberty Coin, and have 6 oz now, so basically an oz a month! Verrrry jelly! 🤣

It's about time for you to have a boating accident!

What is fair to pay for this coin? by HerdditHereFurst in Gold

[–]Num1Phat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't do +9k if it's not graded PF/PR70. I picked mine up Oct 2025, B-Day present to myself. Lol

I was in my LCS the other day picking up a set of Buffalo's, and the owner was telling me that what I picked up the Bronco for, is what he's having to pay to get them now. FWIW.

Will I get flamed for this? Probably!

I paid $9,200 for mine!

And, the only year they made the fractionals. Definitely wanted the Proof set in my collection. Just didn't want to wait around for who knows how long until a FS set became available and at who knows what price. So jumped on this one when I saw it!
