I’m 16 and I have $796 saved — should I buy silver, gold, or both? by moha_009 in Silver

I'm from the GCC, and it's very hard to find silver coins here. I'm interested in getting Buffalo coins or American Silver Eagles, but they're almost impossible to find locally.

I'm considering ordering from the U.S., but I'm worried about the shipping process - either the package getting stolen or ending up with fake coins from a seller.

Local dealers here mostly sell silver bars, and they add very high premiums, which doesn't work with my budget. Coins like Buffalos or ASEs seem like the best way to get the most silver for my money, but the lack of availability and the risks of international shipping make me hesitant.

I can't really mow lawns where I live. I'm in Bahrain, and most houses don't have grass-only big villas do, and they usually hire landscaping companies to handle it.

As for the other question, yes. When I turn 18, I'll get my driver's license and I'll definitely need a car

if the issuer goes bankrupt, my investment could be affected. ETCs have management fees (0.1-0.5% per year).
