It's about 1 PM central time.
I show my wife the Kitco silver chart.

First words out of her mouth: "Holy S#@$%!"
Second words: "Buy Silver"

Gotta love this woman!

Thats great, it does not happen often at my house.

SD

our favorite metal is at a discount! I can't wait to use my ebay credit to buy some silver.

In my house, its "I bought silver" and my wife rolls her eyes. (but she accepts it)

If mine said those words, I'd be on my knees praying, because I'd know the apocalypse was nigh.

Oh Sh!t is right! We broke the $18.00 barrier!

hold on to that woman for dear life

wish mine would..... mine wants money in the bank... savings account...

She's a keeper. Bonafide.

Mine said the same thing when it first went under 20. Hopefully I wont get banned, lol, but I was the one who said no this time. We have some other things to fund around the homestead before that. Id better go grab all the still needed commem silver proof sets I collect for my kids while silver is low though.

See now if you were never married, you wouldn't need to ask her if you are allowed to buy it.

If it's money that YOU earned, you should be able to do what you want with it.

Your mistake was signing that marriage contract, which is really just a financial arrangement. It has nothing to do with love.

Wives serve as a valuable counterbalance in ensuring we don't forget to buy food and pay the bills etc.

I wish mine would say that now and again though she normally just rolls her eyes and complains that I've spent all the money again... To which I counter that I have saved it. I wish that we're true recently. Amazingly it has been better to keep cash in the sock drawer compared to PM's for a long time now.

Mathematically we must be nearing the bottom...it's not like there is another $33 to lose on the spot price

So I need to keep buying just to offset some of the prior paper losses and keep cost averaging in. As a result I suppose my final stack size will be larger that what it otherwise have been. So if it does a moonshot it will feel like hitting the jackpot

Now just to figure out a way to keep he wife happy while I drain our paper money for more and more metal....

This made me laugh out loud

Yep, that kind of calculating wisdom is refreshing

Your memory must be really bad then! I don't forget to buy food and pay the
bills and I'm a single guy that usually jokes that I have "Ronald Reagan memory".
(In reference to his famous "I forget" during the Iran/Contra hearings...not his
later years...)

As a married guy, I'll say that the only logical reason for marriage is to ensure the welfare of the children. One that's done, i haven't found a logical reason for it to endure another 3-4 decades.

Hmmmm. I'm going to break a rule here. The rule is: Do not tell anyone about The Red Pill.

I feel sorry for all you guys who dont love your wives. (or have one you like) I know some of you are joking but I dont think all of you are. For those people, it isnt worth it, get a divorce and find someone you like or get a dog and some houseplants.

A marriage license is the equivalent of a 401k. It comes with some tax advantages, but huge penalties if you ever want out.

Love is treating the person well enough that they'll WANT to stay together, rather than having the union enforced by the state.

Truth! When mine is out of town it's a lucky thing if I remember to wear pants!

Sure but irrelevant to me. If you got married because of tax benefits get a divorce. If you are married and stay with the person because of taxes, get a divorce. Or not to each his or her own. Life is way to short for any of that noise.

You don't have to be "in love" to stay married. Love is a decision, not a feeling.
Marriage is a commitment.
Where does it say you are supposed to enjoy it?

Thonged hit the nail on the head. I honor my commitments, even if they were stupid to make in the first place.

Marriage changes women, and not always for the better. I still love the girl I married, even if the woman she grew into resembles a DMV clerk more than a great business partner.

If she wasn't guaranteed half the fruits of my labor, watching her sit on her ass while I strive to get ahead wouldn't bother me so much.

It changes us menfolk too.

You never know what kind of conversation you are going to wander into on a Realcent silver thread.

I don't believe in divorce, which is why I'm not married yet! Don't say "til death do us part" if you really only mean, "til we get tired of each others crap".
