In fact get a few extra credit card accounts and only utilize 10% of the full credit available on each at any time.

User ID: 79526427 United States12/12/2021 03:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Any United States dime, quarter, half dollar or dollar that is dated 1964 or earlier is made of 90% silver. Quoting: mondali2 Nickels were not silver Are nickels worth saving? Are all dates of them okay? Yes, contains copper, is real US Treasury money and is not the Federal Reserve currency. So I have this correctly...please let me know if I don't. I should collect these coins: 1982 and prior pennies 1964 and prior dimes, quarters, half dollars, dollars ANY nickels (for their copper content) Are any Canadian coins worth keeping? You can calculate approximate melt values of Canadian coins from this website. You need to enter the number of coins before it will calculate a value. If you leave the number of coins at zero, it says there is no melt value. Looks like most of the good stuff is pre-1966 with some inconsistent values in 1967 and 1968.

When there's no magnetic field surrounding the earth that will allow cosmic rays fry every circuit on earth. The magnetosphere acts like a shield.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80268212 You may have missed the part where exchanges are the problem and Bitcoin was created to be peer to peer, meaning if you want to trade your cash for coins of any kind (digital or metal) do so face to face like you would at a bank...but, y'know, without the bank building and the vaults and the tellers...because that's unbanking. If you want an exchange to trade on, you are doing this all wrong.

Hard to pay your bills without using a bank. Even when you pay everything off that you own you still have to pay gas electric insurance etc. maybe if you live in the wilderness you could do it but not if you live in the real world. Even your internet access, how are you going pay for that with coins. I like what OP is saying I hate the banking system it enslaves us, but it would be hard to pay bills with cash. |

User ID: 80257640 United States12/12/2021 05:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My son in law had a bitcoin "wallet" stolen, so I probably wouldn't get into cryptos. I wouldn't know how to protect it. I think unbanking is a pretty good idea, but not sure how to go about it. I need to do more research. One thing I used to do a few decades ago was get my paycheck every month in cash. The tellers knew me and it was never a weird thing to get it because I did it every month. Then I ran around town and paid all the bills. Then I put the rest of the money in envelopes dedicated for whatever it was for. Now I do so much banking automatically. Water bill gets paid, electric gets paid and other things and I don't touch the account, they just draft out what it costs. Go to the store and put in the debit card. I used to do everything in cash and now almost nothing. Yes, I'll have to research how to go back to the way I used to operate. |

If you think for a second crypto can't be manipulated and corrupted you're a goner.

ITS FUCKING USELESS IN THE LONG RUN! AND CERTAINTY NOT A SAFETY NET OF ANY KIND! If you do want to invest, gold and silver. Stick to tangible investments that have, and will continue, to be stable even when TSHTF. Just to be clear, I have been a crypto miner since 2012. Have banked closed to 752K over multiple accounts. Seen it rise and fall with insidious margins. One day up 10% the next week down 20%. Crypto is a fucking garbage investment that has alphabet agency fingerprints all over it.

User ID: 81243402 France12/12/2021 06:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yet another idiot that doesn’t understand what Fiat money actually means. The currency itself is now worthless and not backed by anything. Quoting: Beanie Baby Dumping all your money into cash is the exact anti pattern to what people with cash are actually doing. Anyone with actual large amounts of cash laying around are desperate to move it into something else that isn’t losing value hand over fist like the mighty dollar is. For most (including me) that is Bitcoin. I actually run a full bitcoin core node myself. Real estate will eventually lose all your value also, due to constant property taxes eating away at the value of it. Invested 100k into property? Well, given long enough, the property taxes will cost you 100k and more until you are negative on that investment as well. Cash is the dumbest thing possible to keep your money in right now. The metal the coins are made with today is not precious at all. That stopped long ago when we went to a fiat system. The OP is delusional. BTW: You can send those unwanted satoshis to this address.

Issues I have with this advice: 1) Don't close your checking account. Might need it for something. Try to limit use. 2) Coins at certain $ amounts are difficult to store, carry etc so you can't go all in there either. 3) Prepaid Debit Cards are useful. Overall the framework is right here but the key is a blended approach, have coins, cash, stocks, precious metals, crypto, debit card etc as needed. If you rely on any 1 thing you've got a very dangerous weak point. If you have 10k in all of these things you're in a very safe spot. monkier405 |
