Loading ...I would never answer a question like that lol because only they can decide. You can give them some practical reasons to sell is all. If he expects it to drop soon he could sell and wait and buy it back. Cash on hand like Buffett.
What could your friend buy? He might be asking himself that question if he’s asking you.
He could set up something for his kids and grandkids now before a reset risk if there not in need of something.
He could pay ahead on mortgage, insurance, taxes out a few years and maybe utilities for credit and buy long term food storage for A year or more that will hang around 20 plus years.Then keep paying to keep it out farther till they need it. So if something happens they’ll have no bills during that time and food on hand. You can pay property taxes and insurance a few yrs out. That would also come in handy for unforseen events.
He could set up a alternative power source or a piece of bug out land with hidden food and supply’s at the site, alternative power and some form of shelter or just prepare to stay put, security systems and more ammo. Now you can buy antibiotics and certain medicines at pharmacy’s directly to have on hand as well as homeopathic.
Those who prepared for unforseen events even a few months out during Covid weren’t under as much stress and able to help others to a extend. Especially if they stockpiled a bit of ivermectin knowing you couldn’t trust the demon crats.
I think from what warnings from professionals that can get information we can’t if there is a economic meltdown and bubble burst of over bought equities and housing manipulation it could bring down demand for the industrial metals too temporarily. Not that big money won’t stop buying. That might be the last chance for people to buy if they can get it in the face of the printing press and inflation ahead.
