INTRINSIC VALUE
The best thing about silver is its intrinsic value which limits its downside risk. Here’s the definition of intrinsic value: Intrinsic value refers to the inherent worth or importance of something, existing independently of its usefulness, desirability, or market price. It represents the fundamental value of an asset or entity, based on an in-depth analysis of its underlying characteristics and future potential. Inherent worth is the value something possesses for its own sake, without needing to be valued by someone or for any specific purpose. Compare that to assets without intrinsic value, like crypto, options, currencies and collectibles. They have far more downside risks than assets like silver with its exponentially high intrinsic value. That makes silver, at today’s price level, a much safer investment with plenty of downside protection. It’s the perfect retirement asset for 10% of your net worth.
