Do not buy gold or silver, buy this instead

    My great-grandfather buried 3 gold coins when they made them illegal to own. He told my grandmother to look under the big rock by the pomegranite bush. Uncle Jake moved the rock and dug them up. Only treasure anyone in my family ever had or knows of.

    Get yourself one of them metal detectors,,
    I read a story once where a metal detectorist used to help find lost rings and stuff. Someone reached out to him and asked if he could search the attic of a deceased relative that the story was he had stashed box full of money in an attic ,, cash and old silver coins .
    He told the folks that metal doctors don't work like that ,, there's to much metal in a house to get accurate readings .
    But he said he give it a shot. So what the did was walk and crawl thru the attic ,, looking for any floor boards that had closer butt joints in the floor boards. When he found areas like that ,, he would use the detector to try and search thru the boards looking for signs of a bigger,, wider ,, longer response on the detector.
    He said at about the 3rd day ,, he hit something that gave a longer ,, wider signal ,, and when he peeled the boards back ,, he found a wooden box with about 10,000 bucks and a bunch of silver coins and dollars.
    Give it a shot Gator ,, ya might crawl out from under there a rich man .

    Garrett has that Ace 250 ,, it's not a bad little detector,, not real complicated to work either. You can adjust it a little bit so that it doesn't pic up different metals,, and an indicator to give you a possible ID ,, or the composition of the metal it's detecting.
    I bought one years ago ,, haven't used it in a while ,, actually been thinking I need to get out and find some treasures .

    Idk silver closed at $60 i bet it will go down at least $20 more.
    Meanwhile ive only made like $1,000 in CDs and high yield money markets on my silver and platinum proceeds. Very boring.

    Silver is closing in the mid 50s, it's dropping faster than I thought it would.
    Golds about to hit 4,000.
    So much for "you'll never see gold under 5000 again".
