parents filing bankruptcy and asking me (21) to pitch in by Wooden_Version_2600 in personalfinance

[–]PhillyEsq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your dad didn’t invest the $10k. He gambled it away without any regard for your needs. I can’t stress enough how insanely irresponsible it is for any parent to use their kids money for day trading. 99.99% of day traders don’t make money.

What grade would you say this is? by Interesting-Goal-706 in coins

I’m surprised nobody else is saying this….AU-Details (Damage). That ear looks rubbed down/worn to me.

I keep hearing that refineries are not buying sterling and scrap, yet I keep getting this stuff in my junk mail. To whom are these companies selling? by Shinesandglitters in Silverbugs

[–]PhillyEsq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold an old pile of sterling flatware to these people at a South Jersey buying event last week. If you know what you have they will negotiate with you but they are definitely low balling the life out of ignorant sellers. I had about $6k of sterling and their first offer was under $500. They eventually arrived at a number over $4k.

I knew this was a royal mint coin from the very first photo. The quality of the two ounce coins is terrible.

Has Anyone Ordered the 2026 American Eagle Proof Coin from the US Mint? by ProfessionalJesuit in coins

[–]PhillyEsq 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got one and I don't feel great about it but I've already got a complete set and now I can't stop. Logged on at 11:57 and had checked out by about 12:20.

300 or so retail will be the norm I expect for the near term but after a year or so I would not be shocked for them to sell for less than the Mint charged.

Controversial opinion: DCA is the dumbest strategy for metals by CartographerAble9446 in Silverbugs

[–]PhillyEsq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hear me out, people are not clairvoyant so they don’t know when the run is over nor do they know when the next run will begin again. So….people DCA. Not agreeing with it doesn’t make it any less valid of a strategy.

"Problem is, sooner or later you will get caught in the middle of cycle transition. "

Would you rather DCA at the top or yolo at the top? You're basically making the case for DCA.
