8/18 Silver at $14.50 buying opportunity?

[Lowdown3]

Today 8/15 Spot on Silver was $14.50

Do you see this as a buying opportunity?

Honestly I have not bought a single ounce of gold or silver all year, and very little last year. Last few years has been investments in heavy metal (equipment for the property- tractor, Excavator, dozer and backhoe) and some specialty items. This year has been consumed with saving up and paying for a very large medical expense.

Perhaps $14.50 is a good price to buy some? What's your thoughts?

Honestly I stopped following it, last year sometime after that big spike . Selling was on my mind.
I do kick myself for not being brave and buying some bulk gold 10-12+ years ago before it did that big leap. 480$ an oz was a lot in my mind....
Has silver been steady or rollercoastering ...if steady I'd watch it a few more days and if I had funds maybe pick up some.

Like P, I have not been watching it like I used to. I haven't bought any this year for investment purposes as I have been diversifying.

my recent investments have been in "heavy metals"... and other things i could put my hands on.
then today i read ld's comment.
backhoe1
dozer!
excavator!

sheesh.. lol... way to go boss!
all are on my list... dream list but way down because of the upfront and ongoing costs.

and i just goofed..
had an extra mower i needed to sell... took the mower hooked to a compact tractor to the local equipment seller.
he told me to leave the tractor so that it would be easier to demonstrate the mower... makes sense... i did... as i left he asked "how much for the tractor and mower? folks will be asking." i explained i didn't want to sell the tractor. he pressed. so i gave a price that i thought would be too high... nope... my friend sold them both.
now i've got some little thin pieces of green and beige paper.... instead of a machine that mows/rakes/runs the chipper/ etc..

i got off topic. sorry..
what do i think? i know that i paid more than this for most of my pm's .. so that proves my ability to price them isn't good...
and you guys can get in for 75% of what i paid...
