Fuck 'em.

When I called Chase about an issue with my account, I entered the byzantine world of a too-big-to-fail bank IVR system. I waited over 30 minutes just to get through and be told that they had to transfer me to another department. Another wait of 15 minutes. (Why not record the customer's phone number and call them back when a rep is available? I guess that would cost too much money.) Then, when I finally get the right live person on the line, she has the nerve to tell me they are recording the call - but when I told them I was also recording the call, they say that's not allowed.

This is not customer service - it's customer disservice. It's abuse.

Move to a credit union. Most used to be more exclusive, but the one I use has basically just opened itself up to anyone in the area.

Second, and more importantly, if you want to hurt JPM, buy silver. This bank is one of the major players in the manipulation of the metal's price, and buying up the physical will screw them in the ass with a rusty barbed wire dildo when COMEX defaults.

Yes, I've been discussing that with Sprott's reps with PSLV. They seem to be legit.

To hell with PSLV. You have to amass enough for something like 10,000 ounces in order to take delivery. Get real, hold-it-in-your-hand physical metal.

Where? The premiums are too high.

Wherever you can get it. Don't look at the SLV paper price that's been held down by a bunch of yellow star wearers. Anything below $100/oz is a steal right now. We've got trillions upon trillions being printed up on top of already being literally upside down in debt as a nation.

Don't worry about the price per ounce. Worry about how many ounces you can get.
