>>4466980 When you consider the ratio in which silver is found in the earth's crust, versus gold, about 1 to 12, and the present price of the metals, $14.74 / oz vs $1269.00 / oz , or about 1 to 86, it is apparent that the silver price is far more suppressed than the gold price, although both are suppressed. When the crisis comes, and the paper market used to manipulate the prices breaks, that ratio will normalize, and so, although the price of gold will rise enormously, silver's price will rise even more percentage wise. The only problem with silver is that, even at normalized pricing, it takes up much more room for its value than gold does to store; so, if you want to store a great deal of wealth against disaster, and have limited storage space, you need to store it as gold; but, if you have the room, and want a greater return on your present investment, silver is a better choice.

>>4467144 Liver pudding is a traditional sausage in parts of the southern U. S. I am familiar with it because my father's family is from South Carolina. It is made from the pig's liver and scraps of meat from the head and other bits left over from the butchering, ground, spiced, and stuffed into the well washed large intestine of the pig as a casing. It is boiled and then traditionally served with white rice. It is pretty good. I don't like liver as liver, but I do like liver pudding.

>>4467251 Fortunately, I don't have to sell my metals. They are my insurance policy against financial disaster. I bought most of my gold at below $400 / oz. I buy silver these days whenever it is below $15 / oz and I have spare dollars. Someday, when everybody else is scrambling, I'll be in a better position to survive. At that point, if land prices are low enough, I intend to sell some metal and buy some good quality farm land and rent it out.
