Saturday Savers Club with @susie-saver | Week 47 - Saturday 19 November 2022 | EDSMM Giveaway | Win EDS for Comments - everyone welcome
Hello Everyone,
Monday 21 November 2022 - STOP PRESS: Another 12,500 EDSMMs will be issued on Wednesday. More information in this post. By popular demand!
Well, this week has whizzed by and only a few weeks until the winter break! I'm away to that London on Saturday so this week's post is the little early.
How's your week been Savers? 😍
Remember the CubLife (CL) token if you are looking for a regular contribution to your savings while you are waiting for the next EDS distribution token! Here's the latest CL weekly post.
There was interesting news in a post from a few weeks ago, too:
"One thing I wanted to point out was I noticed that the price of CL tokens has reached almost 5 LEO each. You can see this in the earnings table marked in orange. CUBlife launched with a price of roughly 1.20 LEO per token so token holders have seen a 4x ROI in around 18 months while receiving weekly LEO payments equal to over 35% for the first year and closer to 25% this year so far on average. There are not many tokens on HE that can produce such yields and even fewer within the LeoFinance ecosystem as I consider CUBlife to be a LeoFinance project. Dare I say it? CUBlife has outperformed LBI on almost all fronts by miles and is now worth around 25% of the value of LBI. Growth is easier with small money so I'd put this down as the main reason for its performance along with asset selection."
EDS Mini Miner (EDSMM) - SOLD OUT ... I mean, REALLY SOLD OUT.
There are still 350 EDSMMs for sale at .001 HIVE above the original price (so 1.001 HIVE)
All gone, bye bye. Well done all those savers that snapped up some extras.
There will be a new distribution token for EDS in a few months time, so you may want to start stacking small amounts of HIVE savings in preparation for that.
Saturday Savers Club is going to be giving away EDSMMs from now until the end of the year. These are sponsored by @shanibeer. Each For your chance to win, take part in each of the contests as they come up in the Saturday Savers Post.
EDSMM Contests
Last week, the challenge was about investing in stocks and shares. Another great response in the comments to last week's post. We had comments from twelve people and everyone who took part gets an HSBI share: @successchar, @yeckingo1, @vaynard86, @servelle, @jfang003, @noctury, @tokutaro22, @ericburgoyne, @phoenixwren, @steemmillionaire, @the13anarchist, and @hoosie (who also published a post) The memo has been sent so look out for a new HSBI share in your wallets.
For new holders of HSBI, you'll find them under the "OTHERS" tab in your wallet.
Lots of interesting info in the comments on last week's post. We had sixteen participants and we have a winner: @phoenixwren - yay! check your wallet! (@stdd, your token from last week also went out today)!
Remember this idea, to upvote each other's savings posts (I would add to make sure you upvote the Saturday Savers Club post, too) and leave a little comment, that's always motivating!
THIS WEEK'S CONTEST
This week, we're still on investing, this week, we're taking a look at precious metals: silver and gold, bars and coins. What about jewellery? Let us know if precious metals are part of your investment plans, any good tips for newcomers to stacking. If you don't or haven't invested, what are your thoughts or concerns?
All comments in the challenge get a chance to win an EDSMM and an HSBI.
The small print: What do you think about a savings quiz for the end of the year? Prizes, of course 😉

Good options will have an identifiable and easily accessible team (with emphasis on more than one person involved), a clear plan and use case for the token, and transparency and accountability through regular reporting.

I think a quiz sounds like a great idea. I stack gold and silver and think it should be part of every portfolio, but depending on your risk tolerance. It is a good store of wealth but you will miss out on massive compound returns if you have too high a %.
Finding a good reputable dealer is probably the best thing to do when starting to stack.
Have a great trip to LDN! Its always a good time to visit London. 😃

Yay, thank you for the EDS! :D
Re: metals/physical stacking, I would do it if I had spare funds, lol, but I don't. With all the instability in the world and the markets, I think it's a good idea to at least stack some, but it's a pricey thing to get started in.
What ever happened to the silver gold people minting blockchain coins? I know they did back on the old chain but I've never seen it happen since Hive.

Short week this time
I could almost copy and paste what I said last week, this week I have been just buying good tokens on leo dex that folks are selling for less than they are worth.
Other than that a very quiet week
As for silver and gold I sold mine a few years back when they were way up and have not got back into either as of yet.
Have a great week one and all

Hello @eddie-earner @shanibeer
Silver and Gold have I none. I have none of these is my collection. Would be nice to have some though.
A quiz for with prizes for the end of the year sounds great.
Enjoy London.
Congratulations 🎊 to the beneficiaries of tokens this week.
Have a great week everyone.

My ground rule is to have 5% of my wealth in gold, and over the past 10 years I was able to add a good amount of precious metal to my reserve in form of 24k coins, as these are easy to trade in Europe, and they come VAT free.
This is my reserve for very very bad situations, and my hope is that I will never need to sell anything from it, and that one day I will hand it over to my children/ (although I have no kids at the moment - and should work on this 😊)

I don't stack physical precious metals or jewelry. Maybe it's because of the premium but I prefer to go trade the a stock on the stock market instead. For silver, I would go for a silver mining company.

Hi all, I had a really great HP income week and have hit my annual target of 2500 HP now, which is awesome. The really low price of HIVE helped, and now I'm aiming for 3000 HP by the end of the year as a stretch target. I also bought a few more EDS - I cant ignore that APY/APR !!! My weekly update is here:
https://leofinance.io/@hoosie/saturday-savers-club-progress-week-35-19-11-22-great-post-rewards-i-hit-my-annual-2500-hp-target-and-bought-more-eds
I've never invested in precious metals, however I have an interest in the price of gold and always check it, as it does help you to understand whats going on in other markets. And I love watching gold rush !!! The price of gold is too high currently for me to invest in it, I'd want to see if closer to the $1200 mark, but that wont happen for some time with all the problems in the world at the moment. People tend to head into gold when things are unstable, and thats why the price is high at the moment.
And many thanks for the HSBI !! Hope everyone has great week !
Cheers @hoosie
Awesome 👍 congratulations on hitting your target @hoosie
Many thanks, its appreciated !!!!

Thank you very much for the EDS token.
Concerning precious metals, the resale tax is quite high in my country (11.5%), which makes it a long term investment with hope of a strong increase.
Jewelry is less taxed (6.5%) and only if the value exceeds €5000, but it is difficult to get a reasonable price considering the purchase price.

We have some jewellery as a backup for a situation where we need to take off fast, and cards don't work.
Else, some nice silver and gold coins.

It's incredible how much value can be moved through small 24k coins, isn't it ?
Same here... hopefully will never have to use those little one :)
Greetings, everyone!
I just published the report for my last Saving week, and plans for the next one:
https://ecency.com/hive-167922/@steemmillionaire/saturday-saver-s-club-route-to-savings-of-200-hive-per-week
As a side comment: I noticed a mistake in the table tracking the goals. My goal is definitely to reach 500 HP as I'm long ahead of this, but to add a certain amount of HIVE to my savings account every week. Hope to get this corrected :)
Whish you all a great weekend, and a successful savings week!
Hi @steemmillionaire, the goals run until 31 December 2022, which is five weeks from now (5 x 100 HIVE per week). Saturday Savers club will launch for 2023 at the beginning of January when everyone will be asked to submit their goals for the year.
Very happy to change the total amount of HP you are aiming to have by 31 December 2022 if you would like to let me know what that will be 😍.
Yes! That's right. Sorry for the confusion that I might generated.

I just ran across your posts. I think it's great of what you guys are all doing.
Have a great visit to London ! I reckon we should organise a Hive meetup in London sometime or other, with a SaturdaySavers sub-meet within it - I'm only a 40 minute train ride from the city centre 😁
After missing last week (hey, I badly needed some sun and a last-minute break in Spain beckoned...), I've done this week's post - https://leofinance.io/@alonicus/saturdaysavers-club-progress-week-19-47
For this week's quiz.... I haven't bought any gold or silver yet, but they are the next thing I'll be adding to my portfolio. I'm still at the research stage, so while I've reached some conclusions, there's still a lot more I need to learn and I can't rule out that I've misunderstood some things so far !
The way I see metals is that gold is probably best to stack, mainly to take advantage of the quirk in current UK VAT rules which make investing in bullion VAT-free, while for silver you pay 20% VAT on every transaction which usually can't be reclaimed when you sell it. Premiums on silver also appear a bit higher than on gold.
When I do get some gold, I see it being split between two forms;
Something I'd avoid is companies who hold gold on your behalf (and even more so those that cook up some crypto gold/e-gold equivalent, however well they claim to secure it against tangible metal). It may seem convenient and reduce the need to invest in security, but when the tanks are on the street and the economy is collapsing like a house of cards, how likely is your gold to still be in a vault you've never seen, even if you can get there ? To mutilate a phrase we all use a lot; "not your gaff, not your gold".
Also.... I like to stack !PIZZA boxes 🤪
There is a discussion in the Brits Discord about a meet-up on Thursday 15 December at the 1001 Cafe, Brick Lane from 4pm (followed by a gig by a Hive member at 8pm). Some of us can come along later that day (I'm planning to be there sometime between 4-5pm), and we are looking for someone who can be there at 4pm to welcome people. Is that something you might be able to do? Here's an invite to the Brits Discord if you want to take part in the discussion: https://discord.gg/6W2JtNse
Thank you ! I joined and posted - sounds like a fun idea, and it's always nice to put faces to random internet names (in a safe environment, of course) 😀
Congratulations to the winners and thanks for the award.
I love precious metals as an investment mode and they are one of the best antidotes to inflation. I will not give much advice because I am not a specialist in the matter but I think you have to have a small part of the portfolio for them.
This was the week of the change where I want to focus on building up HP. These Hive prices are too tempting to pass up.

Thank you for the HSBI, and congrats the "EDS for Comments" winners!
As to this week's contest, currently I don't have anything invested into precious metals, or much of a jewelery collection either. I have, however, always been interested in collecting coins so maybe I could start looking into that more in the future! I wouldn't mind investing into precious metals, I would just need to do some research first to understand what I'm getting myself into!
I also just published my Savings Post, which includes both my primary and secondary Hive Account Goals!!
I hope you have a good time in London!
Thank you so much for HSBI.
Investing in precious metals is something that I have never considered before but is something that is common in my parent's generation. What they have previously told me is that it is something that steadily grows over the years.
Something that caught me is that, where should I store the gold? It might become a logistical issue if I need to find a secure place to store it.
Now thats an exciting development !!!! Looking forward to wednesday !
😁
Thank you very much for the HSBI!
Congratulations to the rest of the winners.
I am quite disciplined and have 5% of my entire portfolio in precious metals. It's the only part of my portfolio that I wish never went up.
My week was identical to the previous one, like clockwork.
