    IDK. I peronally don't think it is. I agree with Wes in that it's probably too late to buy $10-15 silver, but I still think it's fine to get into now and just stack and stash.

    This is still cheap silver. The Fed has a new inflationary policy. They finally went public with what we already know.

    To me this is the mid-70's....post recession but with numerous economic issues. (Except this time our economy is much, much worse). Whenever we hit the 1979-1980 equivalent we will hit a new paradigm in valuation. We are not there yet but we will see unfathomable values. Back them $850 gold and $47 silver was unimaginable in the early '70's. We may see fantasy numbers in the future like $8,000/450. Outrageous, I know. Note: I wouldn't want to experience that kind of world.

    Another thought I have is this time we are tied to the Internet for info whereas in 1980 info came from newspapers and network news. How will in information-age skew the peaking process. I think many will get scared out too early and sell. Information can be your friend or your it can be your worst enemy.

    <<Is it too late?>>

    You gotta get in some time.
    I remember buying at $6 and thinking to myself is this the right decision.
    Said the same at $10, $15, $17. Start by pulling your copper cents from your change, at face.

    Is it too late?

    As long as the government continues to spend money like drunken sailors, it will never be too late.

    It's never too late as silver will still increase in value quite a bit.

    However, I would wait and buy a dip.

    Why? Because to think that silver will never drop below its Friday close is nuts.

    I last bought silver only a week or so ago at $20.81. I hope it pulls back around there. If so I will load up even more. If not I will wait for some sideways action and then buy more, I hope this makes sense to you.

    I'm currently hoping for another small pulback to $20ish. I am happy with what I've managed to accumulate so far,
    but just can't help thinking right now that... $100 bucks will only get me 4 ounces of silver? image

    Before too long, $100 will get you only 2 ounces, then one ounce.

    Having bought silver bars at $8 an oz. and silver eagles at $12 or $13 each, a 10 oz. JM bar at $158;
    I now have a hard time coughing up what it takes to buy silver bullion. I have not paid the price to buy more lately.

    Ah to sit here and remember the good old days when you could get 10 ounces for $100.

    I can remember dealers at shows dumping out bags of average circ. silver dollars into big plastic bins, your pick at $1.50 each.
    People complained that that was too high.

    Seeing how everyone is waiting for a pullback we will probably see $30 before we see $20.
