”Black birds tend to like shiny things. I’m a Pirate and no scurvy Financial advisor.” ~ The Bloody Raven
“Well Captain Coda, you can board my frigate anytime.”
Staring and Laughing into the face of high premiums stacking Poured silver hand over fist. That I can understand as my alter ego attest. And I did say, “Everyone needs a hobby.”
I had already thought of sending my Number 4 star to Captain Nyssacat373 as a surprise. A gift for the good company he had kept me. I cannot begin to match the affection and attention he had showered me over the last several months except the only unique silver item I have from my stack.
So, I talked to my kids about their star bars. They were not as passionate as I was about poured silver, but I had to set an example and have their okay to free up one of their stars for the illustrious Captain. To put it in Pirate vernacular, “a deal with the devil was struck!”
The deal involved Ritual Combat and if I win, I could choose any of their stars for sale. Since I was the Initiator of the challenge, they chose the venue. And it wasn’t the use of wooden Bokken swords.
They chose this.
As a practitioner of Kenjutsu this put me clear out of my element and at a gross disadvantage and as a result I lost quite badly at the nearby park and so we celebrated with our favorite take Out pizza. This also underlined my loss of conditioning and health spending too much time at my computer on Hive and related desk bound tasks. But the real take away is I had to make time for my Sons as they are the intended benefactors of my labors. They called it as it is; Time Mal-Investment.
Impressed with their true motivation and intentions, I no longer felt any reservations as I put up my number 8 Star.
The memory is better that way.
The moral of the story was I could spend all my time in focusing on investing on Silver, Cryptocurrency, or anything else, but still, I can’t neglect the valuable time investing in the emotional welfare of my children even as young adults.
Many pardons for being tardy, but I hope yea enjoyed me quaint Pirate Blog t’day

Yeah, it is fun to stack!
Plus, you get to retain your wealth in physical form, you can hold it, and it is yours.
Whatever form of precious metal you prefer, do it... stack it.
It's the only way you can beat the system!
On another note:
Nyssacat373 has been affectionate with the attention. I'm sure it is given without an expected return. However, it is appropriate that you gift him your Silver Shuriken 8.
Hugs and Kisses, sis @kerrislravenhill 🥰🌺🤙!!!!

Re-living my childhood Pirating years only with real treasure and real swords.
As I type I know Nyssacat373 is likely putting another package, including some of his favorite Nutrition bars, so it's not all silver!
I think I have run out of those COA's MKBarz supplied me with. Oh well.
Always, with love and maybe a little bit of Attention, 🤗 🌺 💖

Yes everyone needs a hobby @kerrislravenhill!!😀 Isn't is so awesome that "Our Hobby" allows us wealth preservation and a no counter party investment!🤗
Stacking would be practical but a bit boring without the Fun Collecting part. What could you be with just ASEs, Maple leafs, Brits and Phils?
Imagine me NOT being a Stacking Pirate...Boresville.
Thanks for the comment @silvertop

Especially with that very sharp sword!....😬 I think you need to go stack some silver Lol!!!😇
It's at kitchen knife level sharp and not sharp enough for un-boxing.
Enough to slice pizza with ease, and why I sometimes order my Pizza un-sliced.

Nice....@kerrislravenhill...very impressive😉
Not only is this hobby a fantastic way to save for the future and long term wealth, it's also very pretty to look at! Yes, a nice hobby indeed!
I never thought being a Stacking Pirate landed me a Virtual date with Nyssacat373, not like some of unsavory propositions I got on Discord DMs. He is a total gentleman.
Even an old fashioned vampire pirate gal of over 400 years can still relish the attention of a proper gentleman.

Awesome! Take care Sis, @kerrislravenhill!💜
I love this post. Now is a great time to get into silver and what better way than to get into unique art pieces like these!
I've only had twenty of these Silver Ninja stars made. I've seen versions designed to be functional weapons but susceptible to bending or wrapping on impact if thrown. Looked cool and fun but why throw money at your enemies and opponents? Lol!
Thanks for dropping in @goldbuyer

Do I remember this chapter of your Stacking journey.
The cost of over extending yourself and a valuable lesson learned about building a more adequete cash reserve.
I told you things will work out and better for it, have faith my sweet Pirate princess.
PD
Sorry for taking so long to reply.
Yes, lesson learned. Now I am thinking it's more than enough of a cushion that it maybe be pointless to add more since high Inflation (Anything more than 5% nowadays) will substanially erode my Buying Power.
Not to mention that 'Bail-In' legislation.
I will be parking some of the 'Excess' in either PM's, good Crypto or both.
In a daughterly kind of love, K
