So once you've bought you first bit of silver, you need to decided where you plan to store it and keep is safe. Remember this stuff in valuable and we're running on the prediction it's going to become very valuable one day.

Usually silver stackers are pretty secretive and also kind of paranoid, so most people will suggest not telling anyone and trying to keep it a secret. So I will definitely pass on the that advice since it's pretty good. I've even read a few times along the way that "The first rule of Silver Stacking is Don't tell Anyone"

Of course if we soften that a bit, I would at least say try to be secret. Tell as few people as you actually need to and don't be blasé or brag about it. Most people won't tell you just how much they really have. (or their wives for that matter) You hopefully don't need to worry about your friends and family, but maybe their friends, or the friends after that. Of course if you tell too many people you can certainly make yourself a target so it's often suggested to keep some of your stack somewhere else, at a close friends or family members, if you trust the banks you can always get a safety deposit box.

If you are going to store it at home, try to find a well hidden place. A lot of people use diversion safes or have decoy safes. It's probably a good idea to get a good safe at least. The type that is hard mounted from the inside is usually best, but there are all kinds of good ones. Try to keep it out of the master bedroom, since that's the thieves first place to look. Mostly just be smart about it and take some precautions.

There are even people that make sealed containers out of PVC pipes and actually bury it somewhere like real deal pirates. You will read all kinds of advice on that. Of course there's also a subset, that will tell you get a whole lot of guns and stay home and protect it all day as well.

Overall there is no perfect solution the but overarching advice is always to try to be secret and smart about it.
