This Is Why People Don’t Get Silver

Added: 2026-05-07

[00:00:00]Hey, welcome back to the channel. If you're new here, we keep things simple.

[00:00:06]Uh we talk about silver, real world thinking, and how to stay grounded when everything else feels noisy. There's one question I hear more than anything else when I talk to people about silver. It's not about price. It's not about supply.

[00:00:25]It's not even about whether it's going up or down. It's always the same thing.

[00:00:31]Yeah, but how do I sell it? And every time I hear that question, I already know what's going on because I used to think that exact way. I thought there was some kind of perfect exit. Like there was a right time or a wrong time.

[00:00:50]like you need is to be smart enough or experienced enough or plugged in enough to know when to get out. And I'll be honest with you, I didn't think that was me at all. I'm not a trader. I'm not an analyst. I'm not sitting there reading charts all day trying to outsmart the market. So when I first got into silver, that question, how do I sell it? It wasn't just a question.

[00:01:22]It was a fear. What if I needed money fast? What if I What if I'm stuck with something I can't even use? What if I made the wrong decision?

[00:01:34]That's what people are really asking.

[00:01:37]They are not asking about mechanics.

[00:01:39]They are asking, "Am I going to regret this?"

[00:01:43]And that's a real concern because most people are used to having everything liquid, everything instant, everything available at the push of a button. So when you introduce something physical, something slower, something different, it feels uncomfortable and uncomfortable feels risky. But here's where everything started to change for me.

[00:02:12]I realized I was looking at silver completely wrong. I was treating it like an investment. And that's the mistake because once you think of it like an investment, you automatically start thinking like a trader. You start thinking when do I buy, when do I sell, what's the exit, what's the return? And now you've created a problem that didn't even exist because now you need answers.

[00:02:44]Now you need timing. Now you need to be right. And that's exhausting.

[00:02:51]That's where most people get stuck. They think silver is complicated, but really they made it complicated by putting it in the wrong category. Here's what clicked for me. Silver isn't something I trade. It's something I move into.

[00:03:11]That's it. It's a conversion. And once you see it like that, everything changes because now the question isn't how do I sell it? The question becomes why would I need to? And that's where people start to disconnect because they're still thinking in dollars. They're still thinking, "I need this money to be liquid. I need access.

[00:03:38]I need flexibility."

[00:03:40]And that sounds reasonable until you realize something. You don't need everything to be liquid. You just need enough.

[00:03:51]That's the part nobody really talks about. You don't take your entire life savings and throw it into silver. You take what you don't need right now and you move it into somewhere that holds its value better over time. That's it.

[00:04:10]No stress, no timing, no perfect exit.

[00:04:15]And once I understood that, that fear I had at the beginning disappeared because I stopped putting myself in a position where I needed to sell. I wasn't depending on it for the next week. I wasn't relying on it for an emergency.

[00:04:34]I wasn't trying to flip it or outsmart it. I just held it. And something interesting happens when you do that.

[00:04:45]You stop checking the price all the time. You stop reacting.

[00:04:50]You stop feeling like you're winning or losing every day because you're not playing that game anymore.

[00:04:58]You're playing a different one, a slower one, a quieter one, honestly, a more boring one. And that's exactly why it works. People don't like boring. They want action. They want movement. They want excitement. But excitement is usually where mistakes happen. Silver doesn't give you consistent excitement.

[00:05:25]It gives you consistency.

[00:05:28]It gives you something solid, something simple.

[00:05:32]And yeah, at first it might feel pointless.

[00:05:37]You might look at it and think, "Okay, now what? It's nothing." That's the point. You're not supposed to do anything with it. You're just supposed to have it. And that's a very different mindset than what most people are used to. Most people are trained to always be doing something, buying, selling, adjusting, and optimizing.

[00:06:03]With silver, you simplify.

[00:06:06]You stack what you like. You keep what you don't need. and and let the time do what it does, no fuss, no constant decision making, no stress. If this kind of perspective makes sense to you, hit like. It helps more than you think. And subscribe if you want more of this without the noise.

[00:06:33]And here's the part that people really don't like to hear. The people who don't get silver aren't confused because silver is complicated. They are confused because they're trying to make it something it is not. They're trying to turn it into a fastm moving high action highreward investment. And when it doesn't behave like that, they assume it's not working. But it's working. Just not in the way they expect.

[00:07:06]It's working quietly in the background over time. And if you can accept that, you can get comfortable with that.

[00:07:16]That's when it clicks. That's when it stops being stressful.

[00:07:21]That's when it stops feeling risky.

[00:07:23]That's when you stop asking, "How do I sell it?" Because you're no longer focused on getting out. You're focused on holding something real, something simple, something you understand. And honestly, once you reach that point, it kind of becomes a game. Not a stressful one, not a high stakes one, just a simple, steady, long-term game. And the people who win that game aren't the smartest.

[00:07:58]They're not the fastest.

[00:08:00]They're not the most informed. They're just the ones who didn't overthink it and didn't quit. At the end of the day, this isn't about being perfect. It's about being consistent.

[00:08:16]Stack what you like. Don't overthink it and let time do what it does. See you in the next one. Welcome to the bonus video. Today is Cinco de Mayo and I have a little treat for you guys. I have, if you remember, I had bought another couple tubes of Morgan dollars from the Liberty Coin on eBay. So, we are going to And then I also got my package from Coin Shop Chris. So, we are going to open that first and see what that's about.

[00:08:59]Oops.

[00:09:01]There goes there goes the bowl. I'll have to fix it later. Okay. Well, he really package these packages these things pretty good.

[00:09:21]I hope you're having a good Tuesday.

[00:09:30]And I am so sorry about that video yesterday, you guys.

[00:09:35][gasps] My brain was like a thousand yards away from the focus of that video. Um Oh. Oh, I love these. Okay, you guys should be getting some of these for your ladies. They are beautiful.

[00:09:55]They're And I don't usually like colorized things, but that's really cool. But and then look at the back.

[00:10:03]That's so awesome.

[00:10:06]So, let's do that. I got to put this somewhere where it's not going to blow away.

[00:10:12]And you can thank Annie Oakley for the for the sound quality because um I didn't realize until she had said something in her video that she was using head like a those earbuds instead of a microphone. And I was using a microphone and was getting terrible sound quality.

[00:10:37]And yesterday, oh my god, I got the money tree. I don't remember what I bought, but Oh my god, that's so beautiful. The money tree, the sunflower. Let's see what the back of.

[00:10:54]Oh, wow. I really like this. My favorite color is blue. So, um, that's gorgeous.

[00:11:05]Then we have a couple more. Yeah, I can't remember what I ordered. But anyway, so I was watching her video and she was like, "Oh, I can't remember where I put my earbuds. Sorry about the sound quality." I'm like, "Girl, are you using your headphones?" I've got headphones. So, I went in yesterday. I was having such a bad day. I was editing um yesterday's video and or whatever I was doing. Um yeah, yesterday's video and I realized, you know, my sound quality that I had out here was terrible.

[00:11:44]Well, I had some headphones, so I tried them out and I had to re-record the voice part of it. And you guys just heard you just saw the the outside. I love Oh my gosh, I am in heaven.

[00:12:03]These are so cool.

[00:12:06]Okay, and stacking is not just for men. So if you ladies are going to I have a little soft spot for uh some raccoons here.

[00:12:24]My very first gift that my dad got me was in the hospital when I was born. He bought me a little raccoon puppet and I still have it today.

[00:12:36]We call him Rocky.

[00:12:38]My daughter has them now.

[00:12:41]And I also got a couple stickers.

[00:12:44]So that's I am in I am so happy. I I don't know if he just threw in an extra one or if I ordered four, but it's okay. I'll have to check in with him later. But let's check out these Morgans.

[00:13:05]But yeah. Oh my goodness.

[00:13:09]These are the coals.

[00:13:14]This is what you're going to be getting if you get Cole Liberty or excuse me if you get Cole Morgans from Liberty Coin.

[00:13:25]But but again I Oh my gosh.

[00:13:30]What the heck?

[00:13:33]No.

[00:13:36]I promise they are not sponsoring this video. Oh, see here we go. See, I told you. All right. There's a slick.

[00:13:46]I am very, very happy. This exceeds my expectations. Oh, I love this little dirty one. Oh my gosh. I'm going to have to load I'm going to have to load the rim out because I've got another tube, too.

[00:14:05]Oh my god. I can't wait to go under the microscope with these and see what year they are.

[00:14:13]But anyway, so Annie Oakley, let's go back to that real really quick. Um she [laughter] she was telling me about or not telling me [snorts] when I when she talks it's like she's talking to you so I get kind of confused obviously but uh so she mentions something about her headphones and the sound quality and I was just like okay I'm going to try those out and lo and behold they I didn't need to get a microphone I just needed my head my headphones and yeah, I kind of sound like I yelling at myself, I think, but cuz I can't hear outside.

[00:14:59][laughter] [gasps] Oh, happy day.

[00:15:05]Tuesdays are way better than Mondays.

[00:15:09]Let's check the next tube.

[00:15:16]Wow.

[00:15:18]Wow.

[00:15:20]Okay.

[00:15:21]Okay.

[00:15:23]Um show you.

[00:15:38]Look at that one. That's a call.

[00:15:43]Kind of crazy person says that's a call.

[00:15:48]I'm glad there's crazy people out there that think that's a call.

[00:15:54]Wow. Well, they probably are cleaned, but they're in pretty good condition otherwise.

[00:16:03]That's wicked.

[00:16:09]I hope you guys can see everything better today. I did not get a new tripod. I'm still kind of kicking the idea around, trying to figure out what I'm going to use.

[00:16:20]Um, I don't know. I'm just going to do what I'm doing right now until I can figure it out. But I can't figure out a better way to do it.

[00:16:32]And I don't want to buy a bunch of stuff and like do a trial of the air. That's just not my thing. I want to just figure it out and just go forward.

[00:16:45]I am happy.

[00:16:48]Well, maybe I should strange change this tray around because you guys are facing a different direction.

[00:16:55]So, let's put the sunflower there.

[00:16:59]Here's the money tree.

[00:17:04]As you can tell, I am in a much better mood than yesterday.

[00:17:10]And I got all the laundry done. I know you guys out there, those males, you really care about that. But if you got ladies at home, I would get them one of these sunflowers to say uh you know, show your appreciation to for all their hard work and give them some real money.

[00:17:34]All right. So, here is another one. I'm going to probably have to I don't know what I'm going to do.

[00:17:42]I might have some enough room here.

[00:17:49]Yeah, I'm a happy camper.

[00:17:55]And I really wasn't until I opened these. I really was not thinking about buying more of them until like you know and you know if and when whatever. Sorry guys, my alarm went off and it cut off the camera. Anyway, so what I was saying was um I wasn't thinking about buying more of these until just like a few seconds ago when I open these and I'm like I don't know. Oh, these these are a pretty darn good buy for what I paid for them. And if you don't remember the video, I also had a uh good lord, I also had a uh used eBay and so you get you get a $10 off coupon um with Liberty Coin on eBay if you buy two or more items. And so it's like every two items you get $10 off. Well, and then it was already like the spot price was uh 72 at that point and that was like below my my buying signal. So I pulled the trigger and bought two and I used my uh PayPal, Master Card, whatever. And you get 3% off of that on top of it. So, I saved another like $77 or something like that. Um, you just pay off the credit card as you know as soon as you as it post and it won't affect your credit and it helps well it helps your credit if you pay your your bill off uh immediately. But yeah, I'm super happy. Um anyway, so I kind of wanted to talk about something else as well. Um let's see if I can find my timeline here cuz I'm not going to be able to remember right off the bat.

[00:20:03]Let's see here.

[00:20:05]So, okay. So, right now we I I made a video yesterday making the the statement that silver is off basically. And so we have like we have food and oil prices still high, but silver isn't moving the same way people expect. Uh there are real reasons for that. A strong dollar can push silver down and the high interest rates pull money into bonds. And a lot of trading is paper, not physical.

[00:20:43]So short-term price doesn't always match reality. And at the same time, inflation hasn't gone away.

[00:20:54]Your money is still buying less and silver supply is still limited.

[00:21:00]And while demand continues, so the fundamentals haven't actually broken.

[00:21:08]And uh it looks like, you know, the biggest mistake people make is reacting to short-term price. They get really frustrated and they sell at the wrong time.

[00:21:22]And a simple approach to this, don't sell unless you need the cash.

[00:21:29]If you're buying, just keep it simple.

[00:21:32]90% silver and pre33 gold if you want and stick with what is recognizable and avoid hikes.

[00:21:43]And just be practical. Keep some extra food. Have batteries and flashlights, maybe a small backup power setup. Uh what we have out here is we have portable solar generators with solar panels and the whole setup is you can get a really nice setup for 300 bucks.

[00:22:05]So um but yeah, just have something as a backup and not out of fear, just so you're not stressed if something happens.

[00:22:20]U you don't need to have perfect timing.

[00:22:23]You don't need complex strategy.

[00:22:26]Just stay consistent and understand what you're holding.

[00:22:31]Okay? You're perfectly fine.

[00:22:36]And uh I appreciate all of everybody's comments yesterday and I hope this video was better than yesterday. But we don't know yet cuz I haven't filmed it. So, let's get on with it. Bye, guys.
