Pros and Cons owning physical precious metal

Pros:
1. You can hold the physical metal in your hand.
2. It will never go to zero.

Cons:
1. Liquidity, unlike the paper market that you can just click a button to sell, with physical metal you will have to find a buyer. Depending on how desperate you want to sell, typically the quickest way is to sell to coin shops. Problem with selling to coin shops is they typically offer you below the spot price and if you are lucky you might get the spot. The alternative will take much longer, example , if you sell to APMEX there's a lengthy process you have to go through before you get your check or your funds deposited to your account.

Scammer Alert!??? Jsnip4

There's been flocks of "alternative" media followers on youtube selling doom and gloom to mislead the herd for personal gain. A youtuber called himself "jsnip4" is at such.

I agree with Jsnip4 on buying silver bullion but he goes overboard by trying to sensationalize the idea and make people think that if they invest in silver bullion they...

My List of Suspected Con-mans on Youtube

Here's a list I've compiled about potential con-man that you might see on youtube: 1) Jsnip4 aka Joe 2) Max Keiser at keiser report. 3) Alex Jones 4) sgtbull07 These are some of the ones I can think of at the moment, I will add more to the list as I remember or find more. These people on the list will preach end of the world till end of the world so beware of what you watch/hear. These people all follow the same format, they will preach doom and gloom and then somehow sneak items to buy in the video, (never fails) One thing I've learned in life is : "nothing is free" These people aren't there to help you, they are there to sell you a product. To prevent scams, you always need to ask "one" fundamental question. What is this person's motive? By asking this question will usually lead to your answer and will help you filter out "real" or "fake" Another way to tell is to check their...

Central banks are freaking out as the popularity of bitcoins and ethereum are hitting all time highs. The rush to cryptos is a sign that people are fleeing away from the dollar, this will take control away from the central banks. The central banks days are numbers so they are trying to put a stop to this desperately! They even created their own crytos called "Ripple" in order to compete against other cryptos that aren't tied to the central banks. Let the people take control back to where it belong.
