Today I found out what I had long suspected, that I’ve been a precious metals stacker literally since the day I was born!
The above photo is a sterling silver spoon I was given when I was born.... cue silver spoon jokes...
It was exciting to find out that I have always owned precious metals and started right away, and I mean RIGHT away. It is important to understand the place gold and silver should have in a portfolio. Especially when I ALSO received this message in the mail today:
Its a notice from my credit card company announcing my credit line increase.
So far so good.
UNTIL THEY CALL CREDIT “PURCHASING POWER.” Credit has nothing to do with purchasing power. Credit is actually “Debt Power” or “Borrowing Power.”
When I think purchasing power I think this:
When I think how to protect purchasing power I think about this:

When I think about how to protect purchasing power in STYLE I think about this:
And finally, when I think about singing about protecting purchasing power with my felIow Steemians think about this:
Thanks mom and dad, for making me a silver and gold stacker right from the start!!
Thanks for reading everyone,

"Silver spoon'" - cue followed, but I'll keep the joke to myself :-).
That graph of loss of purchasing power of dollar is tremendously telling of the modern economics. If we find it too difficult to look thorough the modern economic jargon, then I propose a test.
Keep a pure silver or a gold coin (not a very expensive one) on the table and next to it keep a hundred dollar bill. Look at them together and contemplate about which one you like more. Not which one you want more (because then your most urgent need would come in play and would spoil the test).
You have your answer. Your instincts and genetic memory are telling you the right thing. It is gold and silver that have earned their place in history to be called real money and not a piece of paper that makes a false promise.

As a child I did not have anything in silver or gold but when my two daughters were born the first bath of each one was in a small basin with a gold sovereign in the water. So they received the touch of gold since their beginnings. I am just waiting to continue that tradition with my future grandchildren. Maybe with Mene gold...

I got to realise that purchasing power is protected in silver stacking.
The above statement makes a lot of sense to me. It’s like a store of wealth.
I never considered this. I’m learning daily.
