Transactions without invasive governments are vital to liberty.
I bought at around $23 spot a couple years ago.
$60 in quarters left my hand today at $38.52 spot.
A good deal to get the receiver started in metals and maybe other commodities in the future.
It's all education.
I think there are five or six states already on board.
My state, New Hampshire, has voted it down two years in-a-row, but it's up again this year.
I'm in good relations with my State and Fed reps. I'm sure they can get me better info.
And boy do you get one. When I first bout Silver, the fee was about $3-5/oz. And I did not realize I would pay that fee in both directions.
Imagine paying $15/oz + $5/oz = $20/oz.
And when it its $30/oz you get hit with a $7 or $10oz fee, and find out a doubling of price paid the dealer and not you.
So, I refuse to sell. And the fees keep going up. Also, in many cases, you cannot buy near spot and certain cannot sell there (because they just change the fees).
On the other hand. It's a real asset. SO I have no problem holding it.
Also, now I understand why my buddy sold me his at market price years ago ($36/oz, he felt it was going to drop, I Figured I would save the premium, he would save the discount).
I am finally green on that transaction, but NOT BY ENOUGH to sell it, though... LOL.
Again, nor do I want to. Leaving it to my family.
Wis ended sales tax of 7.5% about 2 years ago.
A couple years ago I handled 1/4 mill pickup and delivery for a friend as I was in an area where sales tax was not collected. That may have made an interesting traffic stop.
If you don't want the Deep Swamp, Big Brother, NWO, Suck-A-Bucks following your every purchase, use cash at every opportunity.
Watch any old movie going back 50 years, they tracked the subject by their credit card purchases.
I want our HOA to install them on all ingress/egress out of our neighborhood.
We get these "groups" of people who are dropped off on one side and walk through stealing whatever they can out of cars. And meeting up with the car on the other end, and driving away.
In the cover of night. I have 4 cameras. I caught poor quality images.
We are now adding a WiFi auto-detect, and looking into a Cellular detector (fake connection to a tower). So every phone that passes by can be tracked, linked to a photo if walking, a LPN if driving, and sent up to a server.
My goal is to identify and coordinate these break-ins with enough details that we can finally nail these groups.
personally, my cars are parked in the garage. Always will be. I Told the wife. If the cars stop fitting in the garage. We get rid of a car, and it starts with hers, and I won't let her use mine!
Amazing how empty/clean the garage is after 30 years!!!
Now it feels like a $100 bill is a food stamp.
every time I go shopping for food it's like $200
CRAZY.
While I am all in on Crypto. I mean the kind that is NOT CONTROLLED like CBDCs. or the kind that cannot be restricted, which I fear the USDC and USDT will be. So they will function LIKE a CBDC in the end.
I am not for that.
I am for a form of cash, that we can transact in WITHOUT the government or bank involvement.
It has risks, to be sure.
But banks create money out of thin air.
That's not right, considering how hard we have to work to earn money!
Are you familiar with the term Allodial? These are allodial monies; you/we own them.
I've secured enough physical commodities, now I'm moving toward crypto currency. Maybe a little late in the "game", but worthwhile pursuing, and as an investor in a server farm with a guy I know from years ago.
I want my "Wealth" to be held in a form that cannot be taken from me, and cannot be devalued by criminal bankers.
Allodial Title... Just looked it up.
Yeah, this is important.
Dr. Martenson recently had a guy on from Texas. They are suing because they found the counties are BANKRUPT, and adjust the valuations of the homes to raise the tax revenue to cover the payments. They literally have caught them doing this, and then telling the adjusters how much things need to go up to support the #s they need.
We should NEVER pay tax on unearned asset inflation. (If I should pay an annual property tax, it must be charged against ONLY the purchase price). THIS fixes homestead exemptions, etc. etc.
Glad you got it. You are still early.
Just figure out where to store you keys.
AND WHERE NOT TO! LOL (Found a lady whose cleaning lady apparently found her backup printout, took a photo. And right after she was gone to the wind, this lady finds she has ZERO BTC)... Store things safely.
We're in the same book .... different pages ... kindasorta .....
Finally, in the context of property tax. Capital gains are not pre-taxable. Homestead Land is an investment. Ergo .... Also, School Boards initiate levies through bonds. There are supposedly people finding that these bonds have never been cured. A lot to unravel right now, but the rate of awareness and actions is increasing daily.
But you can find him on YT.
Here is the public side of that interview.

I've already gained infamy with the school board by challenging them under Fed and State law felonious activity. Now I have the time to get into their knickers on this bonding issue. I haven't had so much fun since mom cut holes in my pockets.
You will be a great addition to comprehend the criminality and fraud these counties have perpetrated. DeSantis found that a lot of these counties/cities have been DONATING their money to LIBERAL causes.
FWIW, this is why he is threatening the Property Tax. It goes to the county, not to the state!
It's like people might be waking up!
"They are Man's," said the Spirit, looking down upon them. "And they cling to me, appealing from their fathers. This boy is Ignorance. This girl is Want. Beware them both, and all of their degree, but most of all beware this boy, for on his brow I see that written which is Doom, unless the writing be erased. Deny it!" cried the Spirit, stretching out its hand towards the city. "Slander those who tell it ye! Admit it for your factious purposes, and make it worse! And bide the end!"
And so, is the ignorance malignant or malicious? There is malice within a few. The majority need to see the error of their belief and have an equitable opportunity to correct the behavior. But I pull no punches when I illustrate what penalties may be imposed. My County Board and School Board are not bonded. Their estates are at risk for malfeasance.
Self interest governs everything.
