To trade silver you do not need a dealer do you.

You do if you want to have physical in the Philippines.

The presumptions you guys make. Do you think I am total clueless idiot and I wouldn't know that.

When Jason Hommel was holding my silver it is because that was 2007 and I had only started gaining interest in precious metals in 2006 for the first time in my life. The first time I ever held a gold coin was in 2006. I had no clue where and how to buy the stuff and I got into it because of Hommel, so I trusted him. Obviously after the $21 incident, I learned very fast.

Realize at that time I was more interested in programming and technical pursuits and I viewed the management of my savings as a side show. So I wanted it to be convenient so it wouldn't disrupt my main vocation and interests. And I was also traveling to Asia and I didn't have any one to manage my affairs in the USA. And that is why I am telling you I don't have the correct lifestyle and situation to be a speculator.

I am not here to slander you.. I am here just to have discussion. I am indeed interested in knowing what the future will bring us because I can monetize it. That's why I am here pretty much, learning from wiser people and indeed I am curious/interested in your predictions if you have a track record of great success, and obviously you do not even need to be always completely right, it is enough you are more right than wrong and that there is bigger reward for being right than the financial punishment for being wrong.

Personally I traded also the silver break out in 2011 and I did it with 4 times leverage via online broker. I made killing, I remember I was walking on the streets of Vaasa city (those of you who do not know, it is a city on the west coast of Finland) and I lurked my trading account approximately worth of 10 000 euros growing like heck. The feeling was magnificient and it was fast ride... I think I did not hold the position open the whole ride though so I could potentially have been made more money (I had the position open for some time though, it was so called "swing trade").

At some point in 2010-2011 I even installed some kind of btc wallet when it came but I found btc too technical for me and I gave up with it. It was the biggest mistake of my investing. Too close to be there but yet did not search enough to make it happen. Wise people will learn from my mistakes and the smart ones will learn from their own mistakes.
