How's your luck with Premium Bonds?

I won double what I won last month. Mind you, twice nothing is still nothing. :ROFLMAO: Only got a grand in them now though. We get a regular £326 interest each month on the £99k that we moved out of premium bonds and into a post office account. Mrs Motties mum won £175 on £50k of bonds but she won’t have a clue what we are talking about when we tell her. That’ll buy her another 19 hours in the care home…..
 
I had a few quid in Earni, about 3 years ago I cleaned it out and bought some 1oz silver Britanias for £24 each and some 1kg bars for £670 each, a few weeks back before the price was manipulated back down Bristol Gold was offering over £110 for 1oz silver Britanias and £3,300 for 1kg bars.
COMEX and LBMA shelves are nearly empty, I believe they will soon announce "FORCE MAJEURE" and then the price will continue upwards.
Trump is destroying the Federal Reserve (The Creature From Jekyll Island) many analysts are singing from the same hymn sheet saying gold must go to $24,000oz.
They are divided on silver, it has been coming out of the ground at 7:1 withgold when I bought mine it was 95:1 it's currently around 60:1 due to its industrial demand being the best conductor of electricity it has all but vanished, Trump has given the go-ahead for a new mine in Alaska, it'll be a decade before they are bringing silver out, all the shallow mines are exhausted.
Trump , Xi and the EU have all declared silver a strategic mineral and controlling exports, it's currently trading at £53:55 but the price changes every 20 seconds.
The analysts all agree silver must go 7:1 with gold which would be about $3,500oz while others say it will equal gold and some think it will surpass gold and hit $30,000oz.
They all agree
Gold will outperform Crypto
Silver will outperform Gold
We live in interesting times
 
Anyone considering buying silver be cautious , there's loads of FAKE silver floating around, a neodymium magnet reacts with silver, it almost floats on top of a coin and slides down a bar.
Do not be enticed by adverts saying VAT free, these dealers are in Germany mainly, they are VAT free BUT VAT is added in the extortionate shipping cost
Do not buy VAT free and a company in Birmingham etc holds your silver, all you have is a peice of paper, if you don't have it delivered and physically hold it you don't have it.

Historically it was 16:1 , but gold has surged over the years, silver does occasionally surge, but then followed by a slump. Sold loads of silver when it was about £70 an ounce mid January, thought I'd dropped a bollokk, but I had made the right choice. I used the money for some land. I got £175 on PB, SWMBO got **** all, son got £50 and daughter got £125.
If you are buying gold and silver, buy British minted at the Royal Mint, UK gold and silver coins with a monetary denomination are CGT free.

I used BBP and Atkinsons both based in Brum, both reliable, I found one to be slightly cheaper than the other, another one recommended was Chards I believe, I not recommending them for their product rather being legitimate dealers, the attached was from a local jewellery shop in January, it went up a few days later to 111quid and then plummeted, Trump's having a talk tonight, I think the war is over, oil prices will plummet as will the USD and precious metals will take off again, see how things progress in the coming days

Okay, okay. As per post #1, this is not an investment thread per-say so can we keep it broadly on topic?
