I don’t want to sell via eBay – too many scammers!

Is there a safer way – I don’t really have any priceless coins, just semi-numismatic, Lunars series 2 plus some weird Silver Bullet Silver Shield coins I bought for some reason?? Of course, together with the usual standard bullion coins.

I think in hindsight, gold would have been better.

Yes, I’ve heard of Shadowstats…!

Shinkflation has gotten quick bad in the UK too, especially chocolate bars – major shrink!

I’m guessing the ingredients are becoming more substandard as well as becoming lighter than air!

I wonder if like negative interest rates we’ll have to pay to NOT buy?? Bizarro world!!??

Good thread – I watch NC channel regularly. I’m seriously interested in relocating to the Americas in a couple of years – semi / early retirement. A lot of countries offer residencies, citizenship (after some years) and some even offer little or zero tax on overseas income. In some cases, you don’t have to stay in the country to avail yo…[Read more]

Greg,

Thankfully, my wife has far more of a handle on the household purse strings than I do. She keeps all receipts (I mean all!) – she’s noticed a dramatic increase in groceries. I put it down to us returning from cheap faraway places, but as she has solid evidence it’s not anecdotal. We estimate our weekly groceries has increased by some 20…[Read more]

Perhaps as the membership rises we could have a get-together for members only – speakers etc?

2020?

Hi,

Seems within the forum threads are out of order?

It makes following discussions, difficult – like I’m replying to my own points?

One regret… Wanted to down a silver mine BUT they need a certain number of tourists!

Tingles replied to the topic Beyond expectations… in the forum Chat with Greg 5 years, 2 months ago

Understood…

We travelled to Mecixo City, Cuernavaca, Taxco, Queretaro, Guanaquato, San Miguel, Quadalahara, Leon & Morellia…

Of course we didn’t travel on buses at night, we travelled on executive buses town to town or even an Uber.

We met numerous local people – we’re arty and enjoy urban sketching. I was surprised how cultured the l…[Read more]

I’ve been extremely fortunate, never to have any health issues…

I’m now 57… I’m keen to get out there more, meet people and see more sights!

Perhaps I’ve been lucky? We’re quite streetwise but anything can happen and does in the UK regularly – day or night…

Hopefully Japan next…

Greg,

Just got back from a two month tour of Mexico – amazing place, somewhat differs from what I was expecting.

We kept away from the majority of the tourist areas, didn’t feel unsafe, met with kindness and the locals were quite shocked when we said we came from the UK.

We travelled by intercity buses, Uber and the metro but mostly on foot – I…[Read more]

We’re looking at Mexico, Ecuador and Colombia – Id quite like to live up in the Andes… other places I really enjoyed Penang in Malaysia and Vietnam was interesting. Probably any place is ok as a comparatively wealthy Englishman. We’re not buying property yet but it’s more of an investigative journey.

ALSO… really liked Poland, Sloveni…[Read more]

Cruise?

very nice… enjoy!

Hi, UK based…

for the time being, but we’re looking to move to Mexico and / or South America – a long trip starting next week.

I heard the mountains are filled with silver, surely the Spanish haven’t mined it all?
