Many became preppers in 2021 are You ready to become a Stacker in 2022?


There seems to be a movement quietly gaining steam in the prepper communities recently. It has always been a prepper talking point to include precious metals but recently I have noticed this become one of the most frequent topics being brought up in chat channels. Most likely this is due to the current inflation numbers but personally I don't want to end up at the end of the line waiting to buy TP ever again.

I think it is possible that many preppers have accumulated their hordes of food and firearms and are now looking for something else to add.

In any case, I think it is prudent to acquire a small amount of silver given the current low prices.

Does anyone have a good reason to not buy a stack or two of silver, is it any better or worse of a gamble than crypto?

Silver tarnishes, so you better figure that into you longer term plans. Buy "real" coins not bullion. Gold its less important who minted the coin.

I think we've got a land boom coming. You think house prices are bad now wait til people think that homes and land are the last store of value to be had.

After society collapses, how much will silver be worth? It's not useful for a lot apart from decoration. Food, clean water sources, construction metals, tools, etc will be far more useful.
