What's up my stackin' STEEMboat Willy's? (yes, I just called you that 😜)

Today I got a much-anticipated parcel in the mail... My STEEM earnings in shiny metallic form!

The 10 ounce hand-poured Fine Silver bar from Monarch Precious Metals. MPM has some beautiful products for a lower premium than your average poured bar. As a company, they are a lot newer than many of the others that produce similar products, but I have to tell you they are killing it !!

I will be back for more for sure! Just take a look at all that value I stored into this thing! πŸ™ŒπŸ™ŒπŸ™Œ

Just a pointer for you guys. Once you convert your steem into bitcoin, you can easily make a purchase of physical precious metals at JMbullion.com! They accept bitcoin for a better rate on their products!

Wishing you much prosperity for you all! πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

Beautiful pick up my friend. Thats real money.
Keep stacking my friend

Thank you Ray! It's such a gratifying feeling to lock in that value! This is real wealth generation baby! Boooom

I think you should convert it back to steem and double that pile in a month lol

Fair enough, however if you can't hold it in your hands then you don't really own it. The crypto game is awesome and I'm enjoying it however I prefer to preserve some of my efforts by converting steem into precious metals. It will never go to zero! You never want all of your eggs in one basket my friend!

Going all-in on crypto currency is not a super wise move in my honest opinion! ✌️✌

Yes you are right, it is good to diversify! It certainly is nice to have some silver. gratz!

It's for the children! Either way, who knows where the ceiling is when evaluating gold silver or cryptocurrencies! The possibilities are and less and I am excited for all of us πŸ™ŒπŸ™Œ

That's fantastic I've not earned enough steem yet but that's a great idea steem to bitcoin then silver FANTASTIC

We will get there my friend! Leaps and bounds!!

Is there anything sweeter than a stack of poured silver bars????? The only thing better would be a bigger stack of poured silver bars! Lol

Its crazy that we are part of the relative few that recognize it as treasure!! Nothing sweeter my friend haha

Nice, I'm doing the same thing. 8 months ago I was selling gold/silver for Steem, but now I'm reversing that trade.

For sure brother! Thats a good move!

I'm a silver nut as well, but I would be converting silver for Steem. My friend, I love that bar though. Steem On!

I respect your opinion! I'm just doing this to hedge my bets! At least if this whole crypto thing goes belly up, I will walk away a winner! Ya dig?

I just think bitshares and Steem will go parabolic in the near future. we will see soon enough

I really hope so man! That would be really amazing to see happen. When you say parabolic do you have any estimation as to the that would be really amazing to see happen. When you say parabolic do you have any estimation as to the USD/STEEM ratio in such s scenario? I know there's really no way of telling but it's fun to take a stab at it! :)

Oh, that's a 10oz Beauty!

Ain't it though? πŸ™ŒπŸ™Œ Thanks for checking it out bro! More to come! Going to the moon!!! 🌝

Beautiful! I'm a stacker as well

Thanks brother! I always know that a person is wise and prudent if they tell me that they stack silver πŸ™ŒπŸ™ŒπŸ™Œ

You know it, I started last year

Awesome piece! Thanks for telling us about JMBullion.com

You are most welcome my friend :)

This is on point and exactly what I would do.

I will always choose silver over crypto, however I now believe that there are more subtle things to consider. There are certain strategic times to use the steem to buy silver. I made an impulse decision and used my steem when it was underperforming. If I had waited till, lets say today, I would have been able to get a lot more for my money! Buying silver is never a mistake, however I will never buy on impulse again and always make sure I employ my strategies and control my emotions to leverage the amount I can afford! just followed you! :) ~Hratch

Agreed, but your "direction" is right: earning steem to eventually convert into physical silver. The timing is always going to be difficult especially given the volatility of crypto.

Very true! I ultimately treat cryptos as a means to an end, and that end is physical wealth. There is a tremendous opportunity with the cryptos today and I will take advantage, but people treat their growing STEEM and BTC accounts like its real wealth when all it is is just an illusion of (but potential for) wealth. I was told by wise people that what you don't use, you lose. I refuse to lose the value of my investment by not manifesting it into something of physical and historic value. Steem and the other cryptos are a confidence game. Metals reign supreme as REAL money!

Nice, nice, NICE! Stopped buying ounce bars a couple months ago, looking only at kilos and grams

Those are nice and I'd kind of like to own one, however when it comes to liquidity. they are hard to sell because a lot of people are wary whether or not it is real. Feel me?

Do you live in a state that has through legislation made gold and silver legal tender?

I don't believe so. I live in New Jersey.

it will get to NJ sooner or later. By the end of the year there will be enough states that have made it legal tender that you can just take your silver to one of their banks and convert it

I'm mostly with you, but have to pause when I see the spread on selling back a bar where I have taken delivery. Yes, holding silver is part of a long term plan, but if the proverbial SHTF, I'm thinking recognized coins make more sense. What do you think?

Yes, on the short term Eagles are good to have in the SHTF scenario. The hysteria will not last forever however. Bars will be good to have when economies begin to start up once again. Just my opinion. Sometimes it's good to have a valuable item which is not as liquid. This way you will have for when the time is right instead of earliest convenience. It's a strategic long term plan.πŸ‘Œ
