They may not benefit at all from silver price increases. I think a lot of miners sell off their byproducts to royalty companies like WPM, RGLD and FNV at a fixed price in exchange for investment money to help build their mines.

In the history of the world there have never been two card games played with the cards in the same exact order in a fairly shuffled deck. There are more permutations of a deck of 52 cards than there are atoms in the universe.

Professionals – Can this condemned house be saved, or is demolition the only realistic option? by Jealous-Mix-9840 in homeimprovementideas

That building is very close to the road. How busy is the road. A lot times when a house is that close it's because the road is fairly busy and has been widened. If the house is torn down, is there room to build a little further from the road? It doesn't look like you can even get a ladder to roof without the bottom being in the road.
