I'm simply stating the facts. Since his first post/rant or whatever you want to call it-- back in January 2012-- he has been predicting silver would crash. He was roundly mocked by "stackers" and since then silver is one of the worst performing investments. It is off roughly 30% . That is BRUTAL. Meanwhile- you could have thrown a dart at the S + P and made 25%. I don't know what he's predicted on other boards- i can only say that since his first post on here- silver has done what he's predicted. I own some silver as a small portion of my investment portfolio- although I have lightened up considerably. For my money- there are much better investments but having some commodities as a hedge for inflation is prudent. Stacking until you're blue in the face is about as bad an investment as you can make IMO. Perception and reality are 2 different things. Stackers believe the dollar/government has to crash- and while that perception has it's merits- the reality has been entirely different. And may very well continue to be. Good luck
