When to Exit, Eastern Euro-Music Madness and Stonk Info

Greetings and Salutations!
Well I hope people are pleased with the beginning of the Library. I haven’t even really gotten a full grip on just -how much shit- I’ve accumulated/stored over the past few years.

Crawling through 4tb of ‘stuff’ is a bit of a slog

Especially when I have to do it bit-by bit …
Or would that be ‘byte by byte’?
Gah! John Wilder levels of humor?
I must be losing it.

Either way, the Smoke recibees are now non-password locked. I completely forgot about that. My bad. All the rest -should- be good. I mean hey… One oops out of how much so far? Not a bad track record FWIW IMO.

Now…the Tactical Hermit put it up on his place, and used and sent me a magnificent logo that I’m going to use myself as the root on the shoulder of this place. It too is a work-in-progress, so please bear that in mind. I’m no code-monkey by far and it takes me a while to figure a LOT of this stuff out.

Other mindful/needful things… hmmn

Silver has broken loose, and looks like it’s going to STAY above the $95 marker for now. There are soooo many things that’re adding to the fun, but one thing I can say is that -I- have no idea what the end game is going to be. I have stated before that holding onto your Silver is a great idea BUT it becomes a question of ‘when’ does one try for the exit(s)?

Many folks keep talking about how precious metals are a ‘safe parking spot’ for your ‘wealth’… While I agree, the issue is that this means one has enough wealth to be able to store some of said-wealth in PMs. Meaning you have enough dough to be ABLE to ‘park’ your $$$ in a metal that literally does nothing UNLESS you sell/barter/trade said precious metal.

Which means you still have enough $$$ to keep doing the ‘day-to-day’ purchases, like groceries/gas/goodies… the ‘usual’ so to speak.

Most of us normies don’t have enough $$$ to do these things.

Hell… the little I do have has been bought over a number of decades one lil bar/coin/oz at a time…or gifted to me by some of you awesome folks… and even then, SOME of those purchases meant that it’d be Ramen for a week until the next paycheck comes in as opposed to NY Strip. Looking back now, I realize I did the right thing.

Now it’s all about the timing.
Because as I stated before, it’s when you leave the party that counts. Personally, I’d prefer to hit the exit BEFORE either the “cops pull a raid on the the “party” which in this case it’d be a nationalization like that Gottverdammt piece of shit Roosevelt did OR the “house” collapses under its own rotten weight, meaning a full on economic collapse.

Because I’d suuuure like to reinvest the fiatbux into something a bit more practical… like the previously mentioned M-249S OR another toy I found again which is actually a wee bit on the inexpensive side (compared to a Semiauto SAW):

They run about $6500 +/- IF they’re in stock.
The Semiauto SAW? The M-249S Model?
$15k IF you can find it as well…

Now…
Granted…
I would positively love a SAW. That was my primary weapon in the DotMil. I was always a Machine-gunner, be it on the M-60 or the M-249. TBH, I’m sort of glad I got out before the M-240 came out… Don’t get me wrong… it’s a fantastic weapon, especially in its original configuration, meaning with the wood buttstock.

See, part of the requirement for the adoption of the FN-MAG was that the stocks had to be chemical proof as in NCB proof. Hence the plastic stock. Wood unfortunately can absorb a lot of bad things even if it has a nice finish on it. Because of this, the M-240 suffers from some serious nose-heaviness, so badly that I am NOT a fan of it.

In general I personally think they need to go back to the venerable M-60… the new-new version that some companies have made utilizing ALL the new-tech metallurgy and ¡SCIENCE! that went into the ‘new builds’ I mean there’s plenty of YouTube vids of guys hammering away, 10,000… 20,000 rounds non-friggin’-stop on one of those new M-60s… without a SINGLE malfunction nor barrel overheat/meltdown.
Seems it’s the M-60E6

Bullet Hose INDEED!

In fact if I were to ever be in the enviable position of having “Fuck You Money” I could easily see myself owning two or a dozen of those bad bois.

And on that note…
MUSIC BREAK!

I found this bit of weirdness for you all:

OK…
Wild shit.
Personally I get a kick out of the old guy at 3:11… just jammin’ his socks off… I mean wow… crazy right?

Russian and Eastern Euro musical performances are just soooo off the wall… as I’ve posted about before, there’s that weird dude Vitas:

Seems he was BIG-BIG in Russia for quite a while… his star has faded a bit, but he still DID do a set with Snoop Dog live at one point, so you have to hand it to him… his weird falsetto voice is wild too… there’s a video of him at home on his farm where he does that strange ‘trilling’ noise at his Turkeys of all things, and they responded to him…
Cracked me the fuck up.

The other one that leaps to mind is Winny Puhh which is an Estonian metal/punk group….
Waitaminute…
Estonia!?!

What the actual fuck?
Yeah… that’s from the 2013 Eurovision Music Competition.

They look like a deranged Wookie Wrestling Team or something… key words “…or something.“

I figured we could use us a laugh or three, as such things being so utterly weird and fucked in general.

The only thing NOT completely hosed is the price of silver, which is headed to $100 (despite all ETF attempts to the contrary)… seems the financial house of cards is teetering and Joe Sixpack is starting to finally wake up. I mean if the prices at the grocery store don’t tell the tale, then I have no idea what’s going to wake up people…

Sapper just spent $150 on what essentially is a week worth of chow for the two of us. And we had $66 in ‘freebies’ in that we got a bunch of BOGOs… we even limited some of the ‘stuff’ we got b/c the prices were just too damned high, and I guess we’ll make do until either some of these things go on sale, OR I get some side-hustle $$$ in… the ad revenue for the Goolag for this place -should- be in in a day or two, provided I broke the $100 limit.

Traffic as of late (per the ad revenue) has been sooooo low as opposed to the good ole days. Shadowbanning IS a real issue, ever since I got ID’d as a ‘noticer’… Thankfully I don’t rely this ‘stuff’ as a sole income.. I can see why some folks completely become unhinged if and when they “catch a case” so to speak from the Goolag Eye-of-Sauron. I mean long ago, in a land far, far away my ad revenue was around $300-400 a month.

Now? I’m lucky to hit $100…

And yet according to the ‘stats’ I can see, and the reason I’m sure there is fuckery afoot, is that I’m STILL getting around the same number of hits I used to back when it was the Days of Wine and Roses. It’s that the income has fallen off a cliff…

Meh… Goolag Fuckery at its Finest.

What else can I say?
At least I occasionally share some stuff with y’all on the ‘Zon and get a ‘taste’ if you will, the BIGGEST by far was the MREs when they were selling at insanely low prices. THAT right there? According to the ‘Zon, I sold a metric fuckton of MREs.

Then lastly, I’m still ‘solvent’ in the Stonks.
I haven’t made anything… well I have, but I haven’t.
I took a $10 loss last week combined that I rebounded from today. I’m now at $151.87 at last check at the end of the day.

THAT is why I don’t “stonk”
The last time I did, I had completely forgotten about it… it was some Medical Marijuana company that went public… I bought in, and it completely cratered like a motherfucker within 8 months… It was only $100 I put in, so meh… but it told me to stay the fuck OUT of the Market in general… The stuff I have right now?

ENDEAVOUR SILVER COR symbol EXK closed at $12.34
and then
KUYA SILVER CORP NEW symbol KUYAF closed at $0.70

BOTH are silver mining concerns, and I’m just going to let them sit there forever and see what they do. Right now, I’m just loooooooooong in them like a motherfucker. No other plans a’tall…

Lastly, I got ONE last stonk that’s not mine related:

ONDAS INC symbol ONDS closed at $13.24

It’s a drone-related company.
I figure anything drone related, especially DotMil Defense Drone related? Well it -should- do well in the long term. That being said is that last week, it did sort of shit itself (no idea as to the nature of the ‘why’ but it closed Friday at $12.16, opened today at $11.86, and as you see, did a neat recovery.

There ARE others I researched but didn’t have the $$$ to get in on… like AVAV, another drone stonk that when I started watching these things the first week of January, that one was at $250+/-. It’s been up and down, down today in particular, however, it closed at $332.33… Just too rich for my blood.

TBH, I’d be doing just as well throwing random darts at the stonk pages in the Wall Street Journal I’d wager. It is what it is, and I for damned sure am NOT anyone to take investment advice from.

So that’s what I got for tonight.
OH! and BTW: I’ll be adding more to the library as I rediscover various things… to include some forbidden fiction and whatnot.

So More Later
Big Country

  1. When AOC is (s)elected as preezy of the steezy then you’ll know it is bolt hole time.
    I have offline box for storing flammenwerfer files.

  2. I didn’t know anybody was remaking the M60. That’s always been my favorite. I was a grunt at the tail end of its service life, so I’m sure ours were getting a little long in the tooth. And I’ve swapped more than my fair share of glowing red barrels, and even melted a few.

    Yeah, it earned its nickname of the Pig, but I loved it.

  3. I know a guy that got lucky acquiring a M249S at auction for $11k with case, multiple belts, and accessories. Went to the auction house to help him get it home. Unfortunately, things went belly up and he left state before we could get some range time. I always wondered if you could shoot it with its paratrooper stock collapsed.

    Really appreciate the library. Going to do a deep look this weekend when it’s hide your brass monkeys cold.

  4. Reminder that you can buy fractional stock shares.

    Stronger reminder that you should only invest in what you KNOW, ie your area of expertise.

  5. I’ve got some moolah invested in an start up that makes over sized, extendable, thermal shielding umbrellas with shock cord for scrim attaching.

  7. Any company mining silver or rare earths is going to do well in the long term. These are the materials that governments are going to be competing for. Fedgov just announced that they are going to put up $250 billion for silver so that smell is the bankers holding short contracts shitting themselves. I ratio traded out of some of my gold into silver when it started to rise. And I wouldn’t be surprised for it to break $200 per ounce this year considering Uncle Sugar can print whatever is needed for any price silver goes to. Anyone that survives the next 5-10 years will have some great stories for the youngsters.

  8. I’ll tell you what…if beef and chicken prices don’t hit the backslide soon, I’m taking the pellet gun out and the squirrels and rabbits are gonna have a bad day.
    ‘Gators too with a 9mm to the dome if I can sneek on to the right property. (I know a guy who knows a guy…)
    Gotta get out and go fishing more soon if I can get my leg squared away.

  9. The story with Winny Puhh was that, for some reason, they were invited to the Eurovision contest. Since they knew they had no chance in hell of winning, they decided to have a little fun.
    The Leningrad Cowboys were just doing what they always do. You should hear their cover of “Kashmir”, complete with a Russian opera singer.

  10. > THAT is why I don’t “stonk”

    If you have no luck picking stocks, the solution is simple:

    Pick a total market fund you like (pretty everyone offers one) or a set of ETF’s that approximate same, and dollar cost average into it/them whenever you have the money to do so.

    You’ll match the market minus costs, which does very well over the long term.

    1. That’s right. Check out GDX/NUGT, GDXJ/JNUG, SIL, SILJ. We retired early in 2012 due largely to invstments in AGQ. We’ll finish building a house this year due to AGQ, NUGT, and JNUG.

  12. Per your comment about page traffic….

    I run a tiny little YT channel, hobby farm themed. I just show some of the BS stuff I get into with my goats or tractor or whatever. Never had a ton of traffic to begin with but I’m getting about 10% of the traffic I was getting in ‘23 or ‘24. I can pin it to the exact day too, Inauguration Day ‘25.

    Can’t say what exactly is the cause but I don’t suspect shadow banning. Never talk about anything controversial. Maybe the machine knows I’m having around places like this though? 😆

    I personally know a big time guy who does car stuff. Friend of a friend type of thing. Dude has over a million subs last I checked. His traffic is way down too.

    No idea what any of it means. Dead internet theory?

    1. People are stopping at the AI response from Google, and not hitting the original web pages or video content.

      I closely track the source of incoming traffic on my hosted websites and it’s 98% bots crawling the content (to steal to teach AI).

      1. Could be but it seems kind of odd that I can use the analytics to trace the exact date to the inauguration though.

        I kinda figured that day kind of broke the algorithm and everybody was watching nothing else. But I really don’t know for sure.

  14. Well, like you said, ya gotta have plenty of cash to buy silver (forget about gold, never could reach that level).

    My (very) small hoard of Canadian and U.S. silver dollars, slowly acquired over time while coins were between 19 and 25 bucks each, has apparently quadrupled in value. Sadly the operative word is “small”, raising 3 kids and running a household (meaning paying the taxman) left scant funds for the “rainy day” back when it was that “cheap”.

    Amazing how perspective and the value of a greenback changes as you age, wot?

  15. The problem with stock market investing is that you get taxed on your profits.
    Not so much with PMs and local firearm sales.

  16. Wow. You reminded me of the lovely sound of the M-60 and how much I miss it. Would rather listen to that than any of that ratty-ass music.

  17. Check out the Lima Six; it’s a belt-fed AR upper. You’ll want an FRT with it, too. At the moment, a L6 is $3000 but it is a cheaper option.

  18. One key out of many to the market, is to have pre-tension on the exit button. Per admin user above, Roth IRA accounts are not taxed on gains, but do the research! Worth noting that some stocks cycle up and down repeatedly.

  19. nice thing with the big variety of ETFs you can pick almost anything you want with a lower entry point than buying shares of companies with a high share price per share, etc. not fin advice, but one thing that stood me well is to screen for stocks that have 100% return for one year and 500% for 5 years, and pick names that have a business you understand/can explain to a 5 yr old. Had some 30-40X (ATD.B bought in Aug/01) ones, and some go private, and some go bust. If you want a one and done PM play, Sprott, the company stock, not its individual funds. Looks like we’re headed into a commodities super cycle so lots to play on that esp with the ETF’s . Rick Rule was on our biz network a week ago and he thinks the silver miners havent really took off at the multiples they usually do when Ag runs.

  20. BC, Thanks for the info drive. Just went thru it lots of good info.

    BTW, AS to good info have you or any of the followers ever read Lawsons Civil Defense Manuals? Are they any good or different to be worth the big bucks he wants for them?

  22. Anyone who likes weird Slav music needs to check out Little Big if they are not already familiar.

  23. Ahh. The Leningrad Cowboys and the Red Army Choir. Tasteful and refined with that 50s big band sound.

  24. Not really off topic, just something I was reminded of earlier, considering how things are going.

    Shooty shooty pew pew pew!
    Let’s all learn what guns can do!
    Liberals in the USA
    Love to nod their heads and say,
    “You bought your guns from a store!
    You can’t fight a civil war!
    Fight the army, You will lose!
    They have jets and tanks to use!
    “That’s not where the story ends!
    They have homes, and kids, and friends!
    Tyrants threaten you with bombs?
    Just remember: they have moms!
    You can’t live inside your jet!
    can we find you?
    Yes, you bet!
    You’d send soldiers and marines
    Up against AR-15s?
    They’re outnumbered ten to one.
    That is why I need a gun.
    Don’t forget, because it’s true
    Government is scared of you

    Kind of goes with Schrodinger’s AR15, which is a weapon of war, except when it’s not.

    And just hypothetically, mind you, I’m guessing that some folks that comment or lurk on this board, might possibly have a slight bit of knowledge of how to capture and control an enemy airfield. And some others, hypothetically, might be familiar with the letter C and the number 4. I think those are called sappers.

    All completely hypothetical, of course.

    Do,svedanya.

  25. Hey BCE,

          1. They are the ancient bane of Aryan men. Also vilest of vile are the traitorous White men who have collaborated with ((them)). Cromwell, various popes, Hamilton, Wilson, FDR, Churchill, etc etc.

  27. I’m still running up against the password b.s. . Either I missed the message, or I’m too retarded to do the workaround. Enlighten me please.

  28. Vitas is “Singing Popp” or maybe Popp is “Vitas” ? I wonder if we’ll ever know . . .

    So that’s the track Billy Von Bomb made the “Singing Popp” track from.

    I laugh my nuts off every time they run it & couldn’t work out who it was based on.

  29. So, for the last two weeks I’ve been refreshing your page seeing the same post, and I’m like, DAMN BCE is never gone this long.

    It was a post and not the main blog.

    (smh)
