Good video on why you should buy some silver. I think silver is going back to $18 after this short covering by the banks is over. In fact, I just bought some this weekend at around $16.40. It may go down into the $15s but I didn't want to wait and see and have the price jump back up to $18.
I agree with Bix for anyone that owns some bitcoins and no precious medals that you should sell at least one and buy some silver with it. If the banking system does collapse silver is going to come in handy as the dollar loses value.
