Yes it is. Just asked because 55% is pretty good on $3k, peanuts on $200 (not saying you only invested $200)

When you have to pay to trade, it doesn't make sense to dabble with tiny amounts. Your margin gets eaten up in trading fees.

Obviously.
Some do it for fun in small amounts.
They assume they're "learning" how to trade

I guess that's probably the most effective and cheapest way to learn.

I still need to buy some. Definitely not looking you get rich off of it though.

Don't know if anyone else pays attention, but silver's down low low again.

Thinking about buying some rounds, but unless you buy a bunch you won't see much of a return.

Yeah, about $5K in ETFs is about the only way to actually play in the metals market.

Silver has been hyped for years but a $1000 investment 5yrs ago would be worth around $460 today.

But a $1000 investment in 2008 would have been worth about $5000 in 2011, so it's really about timing, not whether silver is or can be a good investment. We are punching down toward 5 yr lows right now, so it might be a good time to at least put it on the radar.

I have bought some smaller pieces here and there through out the years. But have yet to make a solid investment. Of course now it's not the time for me to start investing money in anything.

Yep, and it's only an investment if it makes you money.

Are you guys only buying physical silver? Anyone buying miners or anything like that?
