Loading ...Buygold Tell him Merry Christmas and the best him and his family.
I was asked to pass this note along to the Oasis from our good friend Buygold who has his very good reasons for not being here..
” Please send the folks there my best wishes, I think about them often, and hope that they are all doing well.”
Wish I could say more but that is the message I was asked to pass along. I think I can also safely say he has found and is on his right path and is doing what he knows is right for his life. That is what each of us should be doing. Following Gods intended plan for our life. We’re all here for a reason you know! Do you know yours?
All the Best From Silverngold!

Btw Zim now a lotto or a position play now but shoes autocorrect News not Jews out a short squeeze. It jumped from about 6.30 to 10 something but possibly topped for now. A lotto cuz it could be about 1400 by 2030 and about 20 in 2024. Let’s see if that happened first. Crazy numbers I don’t know where they came from and saved on my dead phone.
I know what’s going on with shipping right now may have something to do with it. Your safer following the gold and maybe some of the bitcoin miners.

For now I bought a cheap phone about 106 dollars naturally being Christmas and a lot of birthdays on top of it and didn’t know it was that big and unlocked. But after reading reviews I just might keep it for awhile cuz I’m fed up with there’s iPhones with self destruct mechanisms in them after a couple of years. I got my pictures out in time sent them to email but not all my charts. They have a bunch of phones on Amazon too and you can read reviews first plus return them where eBay I don’t know. I’ll keep that in mind but don’t quite understand what you mean about getting rid of google etc. I’m going to have my daughter transfer it to my phones server online so I don’t have to go down there for a SIM card hopefully.
These seem reasonable sorts….maybe it will all calm down……..like hell.

Android phones are way cheaper, especially if u buy 1 model down, but new off Ebay…..u can turn all the Google crap/Apps off and extend battery life massively.
Ipso
Yes it is!
In the meantime my iPhones dead. I think Im giving up on iPhones. They need a 10 yr warranty. Babysitting my grand son Im using his. I went to messages to message a few people and was wondering who these other people were.
Predators possibly on there. They come from these interactive game stations.
Like one from a guy acting like he’s a kid but says he’s staying in a motel he told him doesn’t talk like a kid and wants to hook up with him and wanted his picture. He’s 11 yrs old. He stopped talking to him.
Another kept texting him calling him another name till he said his name and didn’t know him and don’t live there but in Calif. And so forth. Told him don’t give your name or location to anyone not to mention the other ones. Another one wanted I’ll show you mine if if you show me yours. he stopped talking to him.
His moms gonna have to check his phone often or take it from him.
Happy Hour. ……. Ipso et al
Good evening everyone !!

I check in here everyday and it would be very sad to lose this connection
However I understand there is a time and financial commitment to the site admins
I would be happy to contribute $$ but wouldn’t have time or a rats ass of computer knowledge to pitch in any other way
Keep us posted …… !!!

No that’s just a function of liquidity.
The assholes in charge will never support PMs, commodities, or anything else that does not perpetuate their bubble economy(s).
So, they have lots of money to perpetuate their bubbles, but none for ‘commodities’ because that would reduce support for their tech stocks that can be spun on infinitum depending on how much fiat is available to keep the Ponzi going.
Of course, not everybody is stupid, so ‘commodities’ (especially PMs) maintain value, making them good candidates to sell when their precious tech stocks (and banks, et al) are going down, until they are forced to puke those up too – which tends to scare the crap out of the bankers – so they start printing with abandon – which causes them to lose control of PMs (all commodities).
So PMs get none of the printed currency at source when liquidity conditions are good, and none when it’s bad until central planners start printing again; and the idiot investing public realizes what is happening and starts directing more currency in their direction.
This normally takes about 6 months from a top. This is a double top in stocks (even if it goes a little higher), and the PM shares have absolutely no speculative bid in them thanks to these machinations, on top of other factors like bitcon sucking all the air out of the room, so nobody knows how long it will take for junior PM shares to bottom this time, but it may not take the full six months – or maybe it takes longer because this is a grand supercycle top. (extending hundreds of years back to the beginning of America)
Who knows. And I do think many poorly positioned juniors might not make it in 2024.
So pick them carefully if you are playing them.

That was beautiful. A good story to tell at Christmas.
Another Christmas miracle. They woke my son in law up they’ve been doing a little at a time few days and put him back under and took his breathing tube out this time. His mom and my daughter were there by his side and first thing he said is he loved them both. They didn’t know if he would recognize them or not. He’s going to be okay.
Silverngold
Thanks for sharing!
The message comes through loud and clear during these crazy times we live in!
Happy Holidays to all!
The Christmas Coat…I’m still in tears over the message this poem gives. If you pass it up, it’s your loss!
An old boy was fumblin around one day In a women’s clothing store
He’d found his wife a Christmas coat And was headed for the door
When he bumped into a little boy That looked like he was lost.
And he said “Mister can you help me Find out how much something costs?
Here it is almost Christmas And the nights are gettin cold
Winter time is on us And my mom don’t have a coat.
I’ve been workin for the neighbors And saving for a time”
And in his tiny outstretched hand Was a dollar and a dime.
His gaze went from that big eyed boy To that pretty Christmas coat
And he finally cleared away the lump That had gathered in his throat.
He said “Son that’s just what this coat costs We’re lucky that we found ‘er”
And he turned around and gave a wink To the lady at the counter.
She put it in a pretty box And wrapped it up just so
And went off in the back And found a big red Christmas bow.
He said, “I thank you for your help sir And I kindly thank you ma’am
I hope y’all are gonna have a big Christmas Cause now I know I am.”
Well the old boy walked home busted Except for the dollar and the dime
Thinkin he’d just have to buy The coat another time.
He told his wife that Christmas this year Wouldn’t be much fun
And he gently took her in his arms And told her what he’d done
She said “Why you old softie I wouldn’t trade you for a farm
I’ve got two or three old coats And your love to keep me warm.”
She put that money in a matchbox And placed it beneath their tree
And said, “That is the grandest gift You’ve ever given me.”
The years went by like years will do When people are in love.
Their marriage was a golden bond That was forged by God above.
Then one day came some bitter news That filled his heart with fright.
The doctor told the old man’s wife That she was going to lose her sight.
He said, “There’s an operation we can do But it puts me on the spot
Cause it’s a quite complex procedure And it’s going to cost a lot.”
The old man said, “Doctor I’m a failure I’ve made no preparation
We don’t have the money For that kind of an operation.“
The doctor got the strangest look And he sat there for a while
And then he slowly nodded And he broke out in a smile
He said, “Why sir you can’t fool me.You’re a very wealthy man.
You long ago invested In the world’s best savings plan
I’ll see she gets the best of care She’s going to be just fine
And the total cost to you old friend Is a dollar and a dime.”
The old man stared in disbelief Then he recognized that smile
The one he’d seen those years ago On a loving thoughtful child.
He said “What you gave to me that day Was more than just a coat.
You gave me the gift of giving And you gave my mother hope.
My mother’d been mistreated Neglected and abused.
But she gave life just one more chance And it was all because of you.
Now every year she takes that coat And lays it beneath our tree.
It represents to us the things That Christmas ought to be.
She says that when we leave this world For a better home someday
The only things that we’ll take with us Are the things we gave away.“
Wishing you all a SilvernGold Christmas
I’m happy
…..to make a $ contribution to see this site continue….
I appreciate all of the hard work ( Ipso and others) and everyone’s contribution. I value all of the postings and try to view what’s happening here on a daily basis.

Sad news …..I have sent u an email……I am thinking hard about taking the Tent on…..
Ipso and Maya
Thank you for your supportive words about son in law. It’s been a rough week, one thing after another but he has a good team working on him. Being on the other side it never occurred to me until this happened to learn that 90 % of heart attacks at home die. Of the remaining 10 percent there is a mixed amount of brain damage from mild to severe.
So far he’s following commands, his neuros are good and Ct scan is good: So a light at the end of a tunnel so far. Still few issues getting zapped 6 times he is doing well. With those 6 times his straight teeth the zapping the bottom teeth are crooked now. Tough young man that may have killed me not saved me.
So you and your wives please take a class on CPR. And if you can’t , watch a video together and learn the correct way to do it. The correct way to get air in the lungs not stomach and correct way to do compressions to push the blood through the heart. Step further a AED machine on hand optional.
Following a operators which they need better instructions I had to correct them or say thing on the correct way they can’t see when speaking to my daughter is like not knowing how to swim and talking a operator in a panic to give you instructions on how to swim when your drowning.
Also know the symptoms of both stroke and heart symptoms to get your self checked in the ER to prevent being at home and something like this happens. He had no symptoms unfortunately.

You shouldn’t have to foot the bill for this site by yourself. At the same time with the way things are it’s probably part of the reason people stopped posting especially if retired and current economics.
Also Aurum shouldn’t have to either.
Perhaps once a year a few of us on here can divide up the two costs on forward yearly and maybe someone who knows computers as well as you like Maya can help.
Another option and maybe better for everyone because anything can happen to anyone of us at anytime is to get paid advertisements. Okay everybody click a advertisement or two when you log on. You might wind up making money and again maybe someone here can help with any management things what ever they may be.

I am of the idea that interest rates will stay flat to up even though the stock market is looking over the abyss. While for the long term holders bullion is the best plan, for those of us that are so old that they have get the thrill in new places, the pm juniors are the place to trade. I would never buy and hold the juniors although that on occasion has been a fault when I look at a chart and remember when I sold way, way too soon. Still think of the names that have come and gone – the darlings of the moment. Still I could change my outlook at any time, but for now letting the government paper mature and holding cash, buying bullion, and trading the juniors is the order of the day, as Wanka was fond of saying.
Also, since folks think the pm stocks will initially follow the general market down, is that a contrary indicator. Perhaps.

Epstein’s list should be a doozey
Alot of men were hiding in the shadows of Ghislaine Maxwell, she’s in prison b/c of these guys. Time to expose them. I think it could cause the next presidential elections to have unexpected results. But I think the computers decide the outcome regardless. People may stop voting soon b/c they realize the magic hand controls the results in about 10 years is what I suspect.
@ Ipso RE: your 9:07 post- 🤞 say it ain’t so
While i can certainly understand your position, I hope you knowthat there are lots of people who don’t post, but do check in on a regular basis.
Speaking personally, this forum has been like a life preserver for me through many years of financial torment.
I am reminded of a quote – author unknown – “for a Bear Market to end, the last remaining Bull must give up hope” or something like that.
It seems like we are there now.
Whichever way you go, many thanks for your efforts – they were much appreciated
aurum @ 9:54
Now you know what it was like for me years ago. You can’t charge your subscribers for telling them to concentrate on bullion accumulation because it always outperforms the shares in the long run.
Nobody wants to hear about that 50 different ways to Sunday – over and over again – only to watch bitcon go to 70K in one of the most elaborate CIA psyops ever.
But you are right. After some continued volatility associated with a broad market pullback in the first half of the year, the shares will likely light up again (for several years) in the second half of 2024 as nominal interest rates crater.
If this site goes down there will literally not be another venue like it still around.
That would be a shame – but also likely a profound contrarian indicator.
I will try to post a little more if that helps.
Cheers
