Preparing for retirement is something the jokehovian witlesses are told not to do. They are not supposed to reach that age in this system, which of course continues until they are something like 90. At which point, they are still supposed to pious-sneer instead of retiring. And, that means wasted opportunities. For starters, had you got a decent job back in 1980 instead of pious-sneering, you had the potential to save in silver. At that point, silver prices were tumbling and headed for a long period around 4-5 toilet papers per ounce. For a few toilet papers, you could have bought several rounds of silver per week. Buy just 5 per week during this period, you could have stored the equivalent of 10 monster boxes of silver. And that's just with the money you wasted pious-sneering, not including what you could have earned.
Now, that might not seem like a big deal. But, once the dollar becomes toilet paper soon, it is going to blow up in your face. Yes, you can start putting money into silver. However, earning opportunities are gone, and you already wasted money on Worldwide Damnation Fund donations, suit dry cleanings, gas, and Grand Boasting Session expenses. That is when those 5 ounces per week of lost silver is going to hurt the most--after hyperinflation. With the shortage they are creating (each day they hold down prices of silver, they are making the coming shortage worse because people will buy at these low prices and no one is going to mine it), prices could go well above the gold price--one reasonable estimate is the equivalent of 7,000 toilet papers (January 1, 2014 value toilet papers) per ounce. That donation cost you the equivalent of a brand new upscale car per week!
The best thing you can do now is to take advantage of what little chance you still have and invest in silver while it is still ridiculously low priced. You might not end up with 5,000 ounces you were suckered into wasting with jokehovian expenses. But, even if you only manage to stack 25 ounces, that is 25 ounces more than you had before. That will buy you nearly 9 months (and that assumes prices similar to what the denarius was at in ancient Rome, where a silver dime's worth of silver was a fair day's wage) or more before financial calamity. And that is better than your friends that have most of their assets in toilet paper denominated instruments that will soon become worthless--though you still lost out on those 10 monster boxes because of the washtowel.
To add, no this will not make up for the missed non-material opportunities. Such as times spent just relaxing, going to amusement parks or wherever else you choose, or watching cartoons as you choose (or whatever else you see fit). This site is a good place, though, to start deprogramming from the jokehovians. You lost on a lot of holiday fun--while everyone else was having a merry Christmas, you had a dreary one being stressed about all those decorations and music. And much of that time is irreplaceable. You cannot go back to 1980 and rerun your life without the washtowel. About all you can do is pick up now and start now--let the jokehovian witlesses have their dreary Christmas and their crappy New Year, and laugh at them while they are wasting their time in field circus while you enjoy the holidays.
Or worse, you can sit back and laugh at them this coming spring when they waste the money going to Israel on the stupidest mission of all time. Just look online at all the tensions they are getting themselves into. Go and look up the Mea Shearim region of Jerusalem in the safety of your home, while the jokehovian idiots have to go door to door preaching to high ranking rabbis. Or when they get in trouble for preaching to minors, illegal in Israel. And, best of all, the money you save can be used to purchase more silver, while they are wasting the equivalent of a monster box going on that stupid trip. Just as they are returning, the dollar becomes toilet paper. Those who are hounding you and were trying to hound you into selling out are stranded in Tel Aviv because airports in America are closed because no one is willing to work for toilet papers. And they are going to lose everything. At least you will have your silver, as little as it may be, while they have nothing--and the chance to start anew.
