Why does everyone need their silver and gold so quickly? Aren't you guys going to just sit on them forever anyhow?

What's not to like besides a shipping delay for a commodity you plan on hanging onto for years?

No, not everybody who buys bullion is going to sit on it for years. Here in the U.S. you can convert American bullion (Eagles) into
cash without the restrictions that are on Krugerrands or other foreign bullion. So if you're of a mind, it's a good way to get some extra spending cash that you don't have to report to the IRS. Though of course you're
supposed to, and no good little lemming -- err.. I mean citizen -- who "plays by the rules" would ever
dream of not reporting all their income to the IR of S, now would they?
