A few notes...

1. "if you don't HOLD IT, you don't OWN IT" applies to PM's as much as anything...
2. Stocks are a sucker bet, unless one has an active exit plan, for perhaps a year or less.
3. If we are looking at a PM 'stock', a royalties corp is maybe a good bet. The stock of FNV (Franco-Nevada) is an extremely solid investment. There are others, and getting on that type of stock soon is imperative because it is cheap(er) at the moment.
4. The holding of club PMs is not settled, but as SS.UK noted, it's more expensive to buy nearly everywhere, than the USA. It should prolly be bought and held here. I could get behind that if we had a storage setup...
5. This is our FIRST non-SP investment, we will have others 😎🤑😎
