Hello and welcome to the forum. :)

The thought of going it alone fills me with dread. But the thought of a village of people working together fills me with hope.

The best album ever!

The Hunt for Red October

I wasn't thinking about it from a prepper point of view (I already have about an extra month or so worth of food to tide me over any short emergencies). I was thinking about it more financially. Would it be beneficial to invest a few hundred pounds now and temporary triple the amount of extra...

From a purely financial perspective I wonder if buying some extra food now would be a sensible investment this year? A large percentage of the worlds fertilizer usually transits through the Strait of Hormuz which has now been halted. Even if it were to open again soon much of this years...

I think what NASA means is that they don't have the equipment on hand to take a man to the moon now rather than they have actually 'forgotten' how to do it. The 1960's equipment is old and unmaintained. In order to send another man too the moon again it would require a massive investment of...

I bet the Grim Reaper felt nervous coming for him. RIP though. He seemed like a good guy both on and off the screen.

That is always another possibility that the moon landings were faked and that we have never had the technology to do it. I'm fairly skeptical of this conspiracy theory but I don't claim to know the truth for sure either way either. I've looked at some of the evidence on the internet both for...

If NASA themselves are now saying that they've 'lost' the knowledge of how to take a man to the moon then I say that I think NASA must be lying. Simple as that. Besides they still have much of the equipment that was used for the moon missions stored in a museum. I bet they still have all of the...

I expect we still could do if there was enough of a financial incentive to do so. But the skills required and man hours involved would be enormous so no one is willing to pay for it anymore now that much more economical options using modern building techniques are available which can create...

Obviously if you can pick up silver at a lower price somewhere around to the current £50 dip rather than than up the £80 spike which happened a couple of months ago you'll end up getting a few more oz for you cash. So yes the price point at which you buy in does matter considerably in terms of...

Alien technology! :D No I jest. We probably do still have the technological capability to send a human to the moon if we wanted but there are likely two things currently missing preventing us from doing so: 1. The motivation to sent a human there (it's much easier and cheaper to send a robot)...

I totally agree with all your points there. :)

Unless you're intending to buy or sell silver right now does it actually matter whether the silver spot price goes up or down in the near-term? I would argue that no it does not matter. We know that fairly soon (approximately 2 to 3 months if current physical drawdown rates continue at their...

Yay! Silver and gold are on sale today. :D My guess is this sudden drop in the spot prices were caused by movements in the stock markets forcing leveraged traders to sell whatever they can to cover their shorts. Unfortunately for them that often includes selling things they don't really want to...

There are rumors currently swirling around the internet that governments in discussion with Iran are being told that the condition to allow safe transit of oil through the Strait of Hormuz is that they must purchase all oil using only Chinese Yuan from now on. If this rumor is true then it would...
