the movie went too slow for me. i cannot sit there and watch a turtle discuss bullion.
but from the looks of it, it did appear to be a mighty stash right from the get go. i stopped when i saw rows of 1 oz bars.
and yes.. i agree with others that this person has gone full out with the metals. i do not think that was disposable income based on dresser i saw which appears to be from Bob's discount store. I think they put everything they had into it.

I completely agree on all 3 points. I gave up on the video when I saw the 3 boxes of gold, platinum, and palladium bars. That's a little insane.

Perhaps......but you can't know what people really have. As an example, one of my biggest clients who has over 2.5MIL with me and a net worth over 20MIL drives a rusty old Ford Taurus and lives in a very conservative home.
The card the bar is in is the original assay card, They are sealed and the only way to open them is to cut it. Its very thick plastic, they also have a protective film overlayed on the plastic to prevent scratches ect. The box he had the bars into is how they are shipped from the mint, Its like a retail container, the boxes are kinda generic and cheaply made imo.
Thanks guys. I was talking about the assay card box. Looks like a PCGS slab storage box. I'd never seen one. Don't see any listed on eBay. Anyone know if you can buy them anywhere?

I was running the video through my mind last night before I fell asleep, trying to recall exactly what he has (counting bullion--it's the new counting sheep! ) and I was impressed with the total. So I did an accounting just now to check my math.
This is assuming the rolls he displayed are complete and that my counts for them are accurate. Here's what I come up with:
Roll 1 oz eagles (20 oz) Roll 1/2 oz eagles (10 oz) Roll philharmonic (20 oz) Roll maple leafs (10 oz) 1 99999 leaf (1 oz) 4 ngc eagles (4 oz) 3 ngc buffalo (3 oz) 100 gram pamp (3.2 oz) 25 1 oz pamp gold (25 oz) Total gold = 96.2 oz $86,195
25 1 oz pamp plat (25 oz) Total platinum = 25 oz $26,175
25 1 oz pamp pal (25 oz) Total palladium = 25 oz $4,875
1 mint roll silver eagles (20 oz) 1 pcgs roll silver eagles (20 oz) 1 big roll silver maple (25 oz) 1 roll morgan dollar (15.46 oz) 1 roll philharmonic silver (20 oz) 1 roll prospector (20 oz) 1 10 oz engelhard poured (10 oz) 1 10 oz engelhard stamped (10 oz) 1 10 oz wall street (10 oz) 2 100-oz engelhard (200 oz) Total silver = 350.46 oz $4,412 Total value @ spot = $121,657.29
That doesn't include the premiums, which many of those items have--particularly the five-9 maple & the slabbed gold.
Sound about right to you?

Well, if that total is correct then I don't feel so bad.

Those are the Assay cards he was talking about. I don't think you can buy them empty.

<< <i>I don't know about anyone else, but I wouldn't be advertising on youtube all of the metals I had around the house. >>
Nope, not a chance. I don't even tell my friends how much I've aquired. You can't be too careful in this day & age.
Still, a pretty impressive stash.
