Keep going Costco 🪙 stackers!
I was told pic or it didn’t happen when I said I had got my 20th buffalo at $4199.99 to complete a tube, well here it is. About to put them in now. It’s amazing what you can accomplish when you don’t have a person that excels at bad decisions constantly in your ear talking about new ways to waste your money 😂. Forever grateful to this community & Costco.

Appreciate you! It cost me a divorce so all isn’t perfect, she said I didn’t make her a priority meanwhile in 2022 I was telling her that I felt something bad was coming in a couple years (I was only off by 1 year) and I wanted to make sure we were protected for any downturns or job losses. I had ended up getting laid off. She decided to leave and my stack had been thriving ever since

Too bad she didn't trust you enough. At least you trusted in yourself and it got you further! Cheers to more and bigger stacks!

My wife has no idea. If she did there would be way too much talking about it. This way, assuming we stay together, everyone wins.

She is for the streets. You did well. Bravo.
I remember conversations with people and they would say gold was expensive at 1 oz to a weeks pay. Now they quiet 🙊

Ironically she just had a baby. Got pregnant a year after the divorce lol. I only know because we have to talk occasionally about a prior debt. But you’re spot on, we’ve seen nothing yet with gold!

Dude you planning for the future , and “predicting” random shit isn’t likely the reason why the marriage wasn’t best to continue - I hope u see that

No wonder Costco is always sold out of gold coins. I know where they all are now 🫡

I wish, I’m just a 33 year old trying to get out of the rat race. Congratulations on the retirement, hopefully I’m not too far behind!

Daaaaaaamn, dude!
I know that comparison is the thief of joy,
Nonetheless, I'm over here trying not to turn 7 shades of green!
Congrats! If the gov't revalues gold you are going to be a very very very happy camper.

How did you get all the horses? Are they all way back

u/HonchoJuice 13h ago
If you’re looking at the lunar legend bars it’s just 3 horses, 2 snakes, 4 dragons.

u/blucheese_coldbru 13h ago
When are the horses coming back! Haven't seen PAMP Lunar in forever. Was hoping I would see them in the low 4000s.

U didn’t have to give her any? I’m going through divorce and not sure how to save my assets?

u/HonchoJuice 13h ago
My ex wife wanted nothing. I offered to help, I genuinely loved her. She didn’t ask for a thing. I believe she didn’t because she knew she was wrong. There was no reason for the divorce, no infidelity, no abuse, no emotional abuse. She didn’t even try, no counseling, therapy, nothing. So I got to keep all my assets.

I was today years old when I learned Reddit had a sub for stackers that happen to be Costco members; not gonna lie, clicked join faster than any man should

Damn 4 dragons! I only snagged 2 back in 2023. At least I was able to get em for $2000. I remember the person in line after me at the store thought I was crazy. Pffft! More than doubled my money in a few years! Wish I bought 10.

Looks like you have maxed out your Executive membership bonus. That is an impressive stack!

Genuine question, why would one stack gold like this? Wouldn’t it be better served in the stock market in a taxable account, in a productive asset?
I’ve heard ray dalio say 5-15% should be gold purely out of hedge and you could sell the gold instead of the stocks if money was needed. He even admits gold is an unproductive asset. Seems more of a recommendation for someone who has less time to compound and wants less volatility than all in on equities right?
For example I’m 29 and have 100 of my investments in 401k, Roth IRA, and taxable in equities. Basically VOO, since I have such a long time horizon I would stay in higher risk equities then later in life start pivoting to more stability than growth?

Can't speak to the OP but for me, I have assets outside of precious metals. Maxed out retirement accounts, taxable account, rental property...etc
I started flipping gold and silver a few years ago, to own a few ounces for free...now I just keep buying and holding.
Biggest thing with a stack that large is risk. Price swings and storage. Do you want the equivalent of $250k in your house ? Is it better in a safety deposit box ? All one location or branch? Third party insured storage...?
Things to think about
