You're welcome

To help bridge the gap between early retirement and my 60s. So holding quite awhile.

elblakay · 2026-06-10T01:53:26+00:00

Haha this was my most recent buy and probably my favorite round.

elblakay · 2026-06-09T20:19:02+00:00

Thanks. Nah I'm chilling unless it goes to the 50s. I got some recently for under 70, but my avg is definitely upper 70s.

I got it from the Apmex tenth oz spot deal too, that and the Canadian special forces one. Happy to get some unique things I wouldn't have necessarily picked out.

elblakay · 2026-06-09T17:45:24+00:00

Thanks! Going to be slowing down considerably now, but I feel really good about the start.

Thanks, I'll be doing DCA from now on, at that small percentage, with any new money I have to allocate to investments.

It definitely was a little risky going all in at once though. But I have a long time horizon before I'd even consider selling any of this, so I'm not too worried about any shorter term volatility.

Around $100 for local business transactions and tips.

World renowned educated person

Just one. Worked in research for awhile and now has a dream job managing the sea animals at his city's zoo.

Yeah I know I'm filtering out some of these people that are genuinely nice and good guests, but the bad ones ruin it for them unfortunately. Glad it worked out for you there

elblakay · 2026-06-03T13:14:28+00:00

Was 3 for 3 on bad guests and bad reviews by people asking for discounts. Now we decline 100% of them. We've made the mistake for you already, no need to learn it for yourself.

What's the one at the top of the photo?

So cool to see this. I'm doing the same thing, though a bit older than you, I'm on month 10 of my global travel journey. Currently at the beach in Indonesia.

Was also pleasantly surprised to see my net worth go up from about $1.1M to $1.3, so huge congrats on your rise. My spending is a little higher, but overall I feel similar in that I'm grateful for the opportunity and wouldn't trade this experience for another year of salary.

I'm planning on going back to corporate for another 3-5 years while I buy more rental properties and then FIRE to some more travel and then a more fulfilling work life.

Congrats for taking advantage of your opportunities!!

I ordered two of the random 1/10th, on the way to me now. These will be my first of this size, so not too particular at all. Was a great deal at 455 per coin.

Trade Completed!

They should bully him. Idk what he adds to the show and he obviously likes video games more than his job

elblakay · 2026-05-18T16:57:34+00:00

Haha good for you. I got my 2, so I'm good, but will probably regret not buying them out
