Let’s talk about stacking gold, specifically in the form of gold. There are a lot of people interested in getting into some gold purchases, and thinking about purchasing gold bars is something people should consider, though it is not always the best way to do so. I go over the 101 on stacking in terms of what you should be considering in terms of pros, cons, and other information.

    1. I love the cast bars for gold. I've mainly bullion coins so far, they seem to have more benefits to the bars, whilst you can easily sell the bars to dealers the 2nd hand market seem a bit more hesitant compared to your bullion 1 oz or sovs for eg. Considering the premium is very similar on bars vs 1 oz coins, I guess if they were substantially cheaper I might be more inclined, also tax considerations on disposal are different for bars (and in the UK British coins are CGT free but bars are not)

    2. I have been paying a 25-30% premium on Gold Maple Leaves. I am not thrilled to do this because I only get spot when I sell them here. As a result I will now purchase which ever option has the lowest premium. So I will be asking more questions when I purchase any more gold bullion.

    3. ok, you buy a 6k gbar, maybe even one annually – 15yrs go by, and your trying to pay off your property for retirement – who buys your gbars? in what time frame? at melt? taxed? does this vary from state to state? – is your neighbor going to have 100k+ in cash to buy it off you? -///- if we had a total system collapse the best barter material is 'lead' (some will get that, …some won't lol)

    4. Why not just melt them down and turn them into your own rounds in a weight denomination that you’re comfortable with trading if necessary. Become your own mint.

    5. Soo apart from premium costs which is less on bigger pieces the only con is what price to buy one may not afford a bigger piece ? That you'd have to sell it whole entirely ? If for whatever reason you needed to sell , yeah of course you'd need to sell the big piece whole . why not though ? Needed only some cash not a huge amount . Yeah finding buyer to buy your laegw amount might be more difficult ?
