I ass-oom you define wealth as the total value of your assets? Silver and gold are and "will be" declining assets for quite awhile yet. My "conservative" guesstimate is that values of both will be cut in half at least once from current levels. Silver has an outside shot at getting cut in half twice. Gold? ...ehhhh...maybe. Also, I don't care about the past, only the future. And if the value of the dollar is down THAT much since 2013 then yes! ...of course I'm interested in owning it. Who wouldn't be? :O
