Buying silver

[mousegunner]

Where would you go in Chattanooga to buy $10,000 worth of silver bullion?

Have you contacted Scenic City Coin & Jewelry?

[mousegunner]

I haven't looked anywhere, yet. I'm doing some research right now. Thanks for your suggestion.

hit the lotto? LOL

[mousegunner]

Nope, no lotto! Just thinking about how to deal with inflation, which I believe is ready to hit pretty big time in the next couple of years.

I'm going to take a wild guess here and say you're a Survival Blog reader. Rawles recommends about that much per person for when the dollar tanks. I bought some pre '65 coinage from ebay (not 10 g's worth) and it all in all it was a good deal, but for next time I'm going to look into Kitco or Apmex. It looks like you want to do this in person, and with that much dough on the table I understand, but I've heard good things about these these two online places. Just another option.

+1 for apmex, although I've never sold anything through them. One thing about real silver, its not real liquid. I don't know your means but i'd be careful of sticking alot of your cash into it.

Also, unless the banking system completely tanks (and who knows, anything is possible), simply looking at commodities futures might be a bright move. I use flea-trade but one is as good as another. I'd guess the rapid fire computerized brokerages will be around no matter what happens. Here's a couple ideas for long term investments to battle inflation:

gcc Commodity ETF (GCC) - GreenHaven Continuous Commodity Index

prpfx The Permanent Portfolio (PRPFX): An Interesting Alternative - Amateur Asset Allocator

Which by the way, this doesn't constitute investment advice as I'm neither an investment professional nor did I stay in a cheap motel last night. Just throwing out some ideas.

These guys are not in Chattanooga but they have a good rep. and I have bought from them before. They also have some of the best prices I have found....
GOLD, PLATINUM, PALLADIUM AND SILVER BULLION COINS FOR SALE

Of course Gold & Silver are up a bit at the moment but I think everyone should have some amount of physical G&S just keep in mind Silver is BULKY...

I've changed my mind. I think I'll buy canned beans!
