My first interest in precious metals started in the 60’s.
Bought 10,000 oz silver. (on margin) from a swiss bank. This was before the exchange’s were open. BIG mistake. Lost my shirt. Not a good way to start a marriage.
Well here we are 60 years later and still married to the same wife. (Very good woman).
A little older and hopefully a little smarter. With the market now, my bank account is a little better and my wife is a little happier.
