Kicking myself

Postby Tantalar » Wed Apr 20, 2011 5:04 pm

I have been waiting for a correction in silver since it went to $35 and now its over $45!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. Thinking of dumping now because I can't see how it could keep going much longer like this!

Sure dump it. Then once it hits $100 and "corrects" down to $95 you can buy some more.
If you are waiting for the "correction" to buy you need to realize that the increasing prices ARE the correction.


$100 Silver soon coming to a location near you.

You could start a business doing that. I had to take a dump this afternoon, but was working on a job 13 miles from a clean bathroom.

Theogy... couldnt you plant some shrubs and go behind them? One thing I learned from a few years of tree planting is always have a roll near. Its either that or rip of the sleve of your shirt... You could only do it twice though.

I sometimes think how cool it would be if I'd bought in big back then. Instead I bought a Z28 to impress some chic I was dating. Now both she and the car are gone. If I'd put what I spent on that car into silver it would buy an average house now.

Live and learn....

Yea but you can't replace memories.

Did your Z28 have leather, did the chic? Tell us about 'some chic'. It'll help ease the pain.

I bought 2 oz at 25 and stopped, waiting for a correction. It went to 30ish and fell to 26ish. I was blindsided and thought the correction would last more than 3 days so I missed that jump in.

Next I missed the America the beautiful from mint seller guys.

But I got a bar at 40 so I'm not to bad off.

It could always be worse.

I wish you guys would quit making posts like that and cracking me up. I had oral surgery today and hurts to smile.

I also think it was a great first post. Got me laughing.

However I would have to disagree on the use of sock. After a good day of work I would not put my sock anywhere close to my skin after it came off. And if there is time left in the day I would not want to go without a sock. Ive been in that situation many a times and would never give up a sock and this is coming from a guy who wares two pair when in the bush..

If that is the case, you may want to reconsider the friendliness of the property owner! :lol:

I'm fairly certain the terminology "yeah, I've socked away some [shucks]" was meant to refer to stashing precious metals, not actually... :shock:

Fill in the blank here for me too. I think about all the "Stuff" I've bought instead of silver since I starting buying over the past year. :evil: Still way ahead of a lot of people though...
