I bought 5 Kilos of Te.
It is extremely rare and a valuable alloy component. If you have ever browsed a bullion website and looked at kilos of gold, Pt and Pd - you should be well aware that the prices of those items in that quantity (32+ Toz) is not a feasible purchase for most people even if given a YEAR of saving.
I remember stacking in 2009 and being turned off by Pd. I just focused on gold and silver. You know in hindsight, Pd was $250 per ounce. Quite affordable. A kilo was still $8000+ each. At Pd's all time high of $3300 or whatever a kilo was $100grand.
It's quite humbling to think about. A literal rock like that being worth a YEAR of a high paying salary. It should shake you to the core at just how little we are all paid... when priced in metal.
One idea I think needs to be expounded on is "economy of scale" actually not being some great accomplishment of the free market, but a terrible weapon to hold us all on the razor's edge of poverty. We, the tax cattle, are not able to afford a home, kids, education, healthcare and things that require CAPITAL. But we are told our low wages are offset by our ability to consume cheap consumer goods (tv and sugar). We are obviously being scammed. And I think metal prices are a lens you can hold up and it reveals some truths about our predicament.
Enough rambling, however. I bought 5 Kilos of Te - and that purchase alone is like some insane wildcard I often forget I even own. It Te price ever goes adventuring like Pd or Rh then I am probably set for life.
And this is by no means advice to go buy Te if it causes you hardship or you want to Fomo. The premiums are not even close to silver bullion. You buy it you are locked in until something breaks. Who the hell are you even going to sell it to?
