Should you STACK CASH when buying Gold and Silver

Dollar cost average is a great way to buy but it’s not the only way. In the video I’ll discuss the alternative along with its pros and cons.

@@nitdiver5 try and figure out a single thing about me, you and everyone else will be 100% unsuccessful. This is a random auto generated username that I've never used anywhere else and I use a VPN. My 60k fiat is stored in a location that I don't even visit. I have one of my drivers who has worked for me for 20 years collect for me when it gets to around 60k and they are the same person who adds to it at the undisclosed location until it gets to that amount. You also need to understand that even if I were to lose the 60k, it would probably be the same thing as you losing an ounce of silver. You might buy a sandwich for a homeless person and I might rent them a home for a year and this would be less of a loss of my net worth than the sandwich would be for you.

Dave Ramsey wouuld approve of stacking enough cash for an emergency fund. I think he defines an emergency as surprise car trouble, or anything that would require a credit card. Some of us define emergencies as finding a great deal on silver or guns, or a bank closure, or a party. Regular ATM withdrawals add up and draw no suspicion. Keep a stack of $50's with the silver stack, add to it regularly.

Practical topic. Thanks for the vid. I should probably start dollar cost averaging a little more. I’ve been doing more strategic buys recently like your buddy. Prob not as great as him but been buying the dips the last couple months.

[@StatesideStash]

Well done! It definitely takes patience and an understanding of the market to buy at the right time

[@tgraymk]

I prefer to buy the dips, but if it is holding steady, I make a once a month purchase. I do believe in stacking cash because in the end, cash is still king and will be for the foreseeable future. I don't want to liquidate any of my stack since that is long term holdings for me. That means my short term holdings have to be high enough to cover major expenses.

[@StatesideStash]

Well said sir

[@wasillastacker]

My thoughts exactly. if you don't have at least 1000 to 2,000 cash stacked up you probably should not be adding to your precious metal stack until that happens.

Definitely good to have X amount set aside

[@gregbeaudoin2443]

Another good one brother. I don't pay attention to fluctuations in the market. Buy,buy,buy...if you pay a little more money here and there no biggie it's gold you'll get it back.

For the youtube algorithm 😎✌️ #DCAandCHILL. Hey I'm all about DCA every month on Silver and as for gold I do it every quarter... and let's just say I make the bank laugh every time I pull out money 😂... but as of recently I've been focusing more on Silver and hopefully can play the ratio game like I have in the past... and to be honest it's kind of a pain in the ass having to watch the markets and time it just right, then trying to talk my LCS into doing a trade into gold can be a pain sometimes... But over all, if the opportunity arises I'll definitely trade some of my silver into gold, but I'm trying to not stress it like I have in the past....

[@StatesideStash]

I play the ratio game big time! Thanks for always watching and commenting brotha!

[@milessakauye8819]

Hi Stateside, I think everyone has different goals and reasons for stacking. I bought on the dips. This approach definitely could cause some anxiety. But if I bought too early or too late, I either purchase more or just hold till the next dip. Silver is so volatile, it seems like you don't need to wait long for another dip. Thanks for the vlog brotha!

[@StatesideStash]

You’re not kidding about how volatile silver is!

[@O.D.B.420]

Cashiers ask what you're doing with money because they're trained to ask so they can warn people against scammers. While it isn't any of their business they most times are just trying to help out.

[@dukenukemani07]

You just gave me an idea, Stateside... A couple years back when silver was below $20 spot, I bought some silver eagles and generic rounds that are second hand and the guy I bought the eagles from, did not properly package them so they got scratched and dinged up pretty bad. The second hand generic rounds, although nothing actually wrong with them, look like "gas station" silver (for lack of a better term). Both tubes are an eye sore so I keep them separate from the rest of my stack and I've been wondering what to do with them... I thought about maybe trading them in towards a half-ounce of gold, but now I may just cash them in and keep the money at home just in case I need it for something else. Thanks for the insight. 👍

What I love about Art silver is the spot price isn't the entire value of the silver. I've seen the same design bar go for a range of $55.50 ( May 2 '24) to as high as $92.95 ( May 26 '24). This is a 1 oz bar. Granted its value is about $80 in the collector market, but its cool to see a spread in price. Just tonight I seen a 1 oz Art bar go for $87.75 - I bought this same bar 4 days ago for $54. Even thought I started out Constitutional silver and still like it. I definitely enjoy my Art bars due to the spread in value even if the market price for silver doesn't change much.

[@StatesideStash]

Art bars are fun and exciting to buy

[@jamesitsines6890]

I think Dollar Cost Average on a schedule is good advice for people new to stacking or not confortable with there PM holdings. Holding some Cash back for deals, big pullbacks, estate sales etc. It also protects you from Bank runs, EMPs (Solar flairs), Bank Closings/hacked etc. My new car dealer had to service my new car on paper because the program that 70% of car dealers use nationwide was hacked...Hmmm Me personally I buy Silver/Gold when it dips below a 6 month low (That number is always updating) kitco 6 month charts. If you buy at that level you will never overpay regardless if its $22 or $35 a ounce. Currently I got tired of waiting on Gold to hit my level so I switched to graded Saint Gaudens because premiums are nothing and if gold dips those premiums will shoot up. When PMs dip quickly you need to switch to stuff that is cheap (bars, impared secondary ect) Because premium stuff (Libertads, ASEs etc) will just raise the premiums keeping price the same. Hi :)

I have tried stacking cash in the past. For me cash is too liquid. I ALWAYS end up spending it. I’ve never been able to hold more that a few hundred before “having” to spend it. That’s a higher reason I love buying metals. I can see how much I have because it’s not just a number in a bank. And it’s 1 more step to spend it. What have been doing is coin roll hunting and filling coin folders. Every pay check I’ll take out what I was planning to spend on silver and gold and coin roll hunt that amount. It’ll take me the weekend, but I’ll typically set aside $10-20 each time. And I’ll spend the reason on metals. Now I have a few hundred in coins On top of what is now about a month and a half in expenses in silver, gold and platinum saved up. It is still possible to spend the coins, but it’s a bit harder to go to the gas station with $20 in nickels. Especially if they are ones I set aside because they are old or particularly shinny.

I think having some cash is good for a cyber attack, if the cards don't work anywhere its a good idea to keep a few hundred laying around. I'd also like to add, it doesn't seem to matter with the $1-$2 dollar changes in silver, premiums always seem to make up for it.

I think you should always keep some liquid cash on hand. If some minor emergency happens it keeps you from having to sell some of your stack to take care of it. Something is always going to happen. Once in a while you get extra cash you did not plan on. I take that extra cash and put half in savings and half in metals. I do not care what the spot price is. I have some blow money in my budget I regard as extra cash. I do the same thing with that blow money. When my savings gets to a certain point then I put the excess into metals regardless of the spot price. I know in the short term this may be a bad deal. In the long run its worked out pretty good for me. I remember buying an ounce of gold for $800.00 which was a bad deal a long time ago in the short run. Now it looks like a genius move lol.

Good video but i think your wrong about dealer premiums. When a dealer opens a shop they start with x a amount of inventory . As long as they maintain the same amount of inventory as when they opened they make money off of spreads not spot . Charging a little more than their wholesale prices & paying a little less than what they can sell back to wholesaler for. So even if they take a loss on some oz' s they also replace them cheaper

In addition to stacking gold and silver I buy foreign currencies because I'm not exactly good with my money so when I go broke I need money to pay for taxi cabs sometimes. But also and at the same time I have these currencies because at some point I plan on spending them in those respected places like Canada and Europe. I won't just stop with buying Euros and Canadian dollars I plan to also pick up bills from all the nations that I wish to travel to in the world on a bucket list. Guatemala quetzal Peruvian sol the Argentinian peso and Lebanon pound. I realize that it's really questionable to pick up something as weak as the Argentinian peso in Lebanese pound but the truth is there is a bottom to all markets. So in addition to picking some unstable or weaker currencies like the Iraqi dinar which may be getting stronger every day I also like to pick currencies that are stronger than the American dollar like the Swiss franc and the British pound. One last thing to put in your wallet that will keep you a little more secure on your path in life is to take a 3x6 baggie and put a couple or a few checks from your checkbook inside it and put that right next to your bills in case for some chance that fraud department puts a lock on your card or the ATM doesn't have money for whatever reason you can post date whatever it is you're buying with a check.
