This site was not written to anticipate an ending.
It was written to preserve clarity before one arrives.
Gold and silver have been accumulated, held, ignored, questioned, and revisited across years where doing nothing required more discipline than action. That experience matters, not because it guarantees correctness, but because it establishes reference.
The most difficult phase of any long monetary cycle is not entry.
It is exit.
By the time selling feels socially acceptable, it is usually late.
By the time narratives align, pressure is already high.
By the time certainty appears, choice has narrowed.
Understanding this does not eliminate difficulty.
It simply removes surprise.
This record exists to remind its author — and any future reader — of how things looked before urgency, consensus, and inevitability took hold. Before confidence collapsed, before trust was openly questioned, and before hindsight became cheap.
Nothing here claims foresight.
Nothing here promises timing.
It documents posture.
There may come a point when holding no longer serves its purpose. When gold has said what it needs to say, and attention shifts elsewhere. If and when that moment arrives, it will not feel clean or obvious.
It rarely does.
This site does not attempt to resolve that tension in advance.
It exists so that when pressure is highest, memory is intact.
Read now, it may feel measured.
Read later, it may feel obvious.
Both are acceptable.
What matters is that it was written before it was necessary.
