I started stacking to dig myself out of poverty. I buy myself a coin every week out of my wage, i feel like im paying myself a silver coin for all the hard work and it takes away all the emotion out of the remaining fiat that is used to pay rent and bills. I save £5 notes for gold, when there is enough for a sovereign or 1/4 beast i add a little gold to the stack, eventually i had to give up smoking to increse my funds to buy some collecables i wanted.

I would advise anyone wanting to start stacking to set out a long term plan, dont try and stack too quickly and play a long game. For someone stacking on a small budget save up a little first and buy a small gold coin to start the stack and then buy the silver to protect the gold piece like getting your chess pieces in place, get a good starting coin.

Been stacking since 2011 and im still living in poverty to a degree, sat on a broken sofa, renting a house in disrepair and driving a car thats 14 years old but my stack would more than buy a sofa, it could buy a brand new car and would be just enough for a nice deposit on my own house so im well on my way to dig myself out of the poverty trap ive always been in. I had a 10 year plan so i will assess where i am in 2022.
