Comment: I urge you to make an immediate change of motivators.

Stack silver to keep it out of the hands of those who would make weapons with it.
My father learned of the silver shortage before I was born, he died before the truth came out. He gave up and sold his silver during his retirement, and I am GLAD he did. Still, for me, I am just fine with putting into the hands of my children and grandchildren, as long as they know WHY they are holding it.
That said, I sold mine to put a well in. I want to leave them a functioning farm even more than silver. And if silver ever does bust loose, it will mean truth has busted loose, so selling at the right time will not be selling out the ideal.
Just keep stacking - you're doing the right thing.
