I normally only cut the middle part but her whole banner is amazing

#### 1/ When and how did you find Steemit.com and why did you hang around and continue to post and be active?
I found Steemit through a friend who joined but never did anything with his account. I stuck around because I love to write and wanted to learn how to blog. Through commenting, research, and a lot of reading I found many friends and groups (@thesteemengine, @steemitbloggers, @cryptoempire, @qurator, @enchantedspirit, @goldendawne, @janynie, etc.) who helped me along. This in turn kept me interested in staying on the platform.
#### 2/ How did you find out about Steemsilvergold and what appealed to you to make you sign up?
I found SSG through @underground and since I love silver and gold I eventually asked him if this was a good group and he confirmed that it was and was my confirmation to get into the group.
#### 3/ How long ago and what first got you interested in precious metals?
My grandmother was a collector of coin and wheat pennies, as a child I would collect coins but by the time I was a teenager my collection had been stolen. In my 20’s my uncle gave me 10 silver dollars and eight of those were stolen. 

Fortunately, I held onto two and since joining the group I started slowly stacking once again.
#### 4/ In your own mind. What type of stacker would you class yourself as if you could only pick one type and why?
I would say I am the most popular type of stacker that you explain in your post [here](https://steemit.com/steemsilvergold/@silverstackeruk/why-stack-silver-types-of-stackers-and-becoming-a-stacker-188)

Typically I purchase a small amount every month, especially when prices are down or if I see something on sale. Because I try to find coupons or discounts, I have used a check to save on an extra percentage or shipping costs.
You said it perfectly:

>They will influence a month to month arrange, to set aside and purchases on spot value plunges, take exceptional offers and essentially grow a reserve of little premium silver bullion. This is the most simple approach to wind up plainly a stacker on the grounds that there is no spending prerequisite. When I began stacking, I just burned through £50 a month on silver. Going down this way enables you to kick back and watch your stack develop after some time, its exceptionally fulfilling.
#### 5/ Do you plan your precious metal buys with goals in mind are do you go with the flow and stack here and there?
Since I have only been at this for what seems like only a few months, but in reality it has been closer to six months I do not have any goals other than to stack something I love or that catches my eye. SSG has helped in ideas on where to purchase such as LCS or flea markets and these avenues work! I’ve found some amazing deals and rare coins as well as silver. 

If I could purchase every single week I would, but for now I at least try to purchase once or twice a month, with the goal of building my treasure chest full.
#### 6/ Being a lady stacker in a community mainly comprised of men, do you think women stack differently to men are do we all stack the same?
I feel that your explanation of the basic three stackers is right on, there appears to be a socio-psychology behind the method and when we choose one of those three that is what type we are and this is not based on gender.
#### 7/ If you could only stack 1 coin, bar or round. Which coin/series/bar would you pick and why?
If I had enough space it would be a clearly defined gold bar, but in reality that would be too heavy for a lady stacker to haul. Therefore, I would say that I would stack as as much as these as possible:

[Top 5 Best Places to Buy Gold Eagles - Silver Monthly](http://www.silvermonthly.com/top-5-best-places-to-buy-gold-eagles/)

In one ounce denominations. Why? As the article above brings out, “it is the name of the game.” The recommendation is to purchase this in half ounce denominations for the better value but if I had unlimited funds and storage then this would be my choice. What American doesn’t love Lady Liberty?
#### 8/ On a scale of 1-10 scoring yourself on stackitis stress levels. What would be your highest level ever raised, what were your symptoms and how did you overcome it?
I’ve gotten into a LCS and been at 10 because I couldn’t stop, I did literally have the shakes, sweats, and giddy “score” feeling. It was better than any clothes shopping feeling I experienced in the past and much more addicting. 

Fortunately, I do have control over my behavior so I tend to limit my spending and once I am away from the “scene” I can shut off the urges to go visit my LCS or shopping around. It’s been about a month now so I feel the urge to take a look around for what’s on sale. So if you know any good buys, send them my way ...
#### 9/ Scenario – You suffering badly from stackitis and see steem rounds on sale for $20 each, your about to place an order and you receive a huge household bill. You only have money for one. What do you do and why?
Due to my “responsible” nature I would pay the bill and forego the urge to purchase silver. 

I would love to say to hell with it and buy it all!  However, there are always ways to try to work that ‘stackitis’. For instance, it’s nearing my birthday and I’m throwing hints like crazy for a few 24k Mene pieces. We do what we have to do in this world to appease our wants and needs … LOL!
#### 10/ What’s your favourite food ever?
This is a tough one, since I love food period but I will say I love Korean soup called [Galbitang](https://www.maangchi.com/recipe/galbitang) 




but I love it when it is made spicy with a Korean red pepper. 

It would be between a Mexican soup called [Pozole](http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/pork-be-inspired-pork-pozole-verde) made with green chiles

I included recipes and photos just in case anyone is interested in what this looks like or give it a try in cooking them.  These are my “comfort” foods and when it’s winter or I’m feeling a bit down these are my go-to for food. 

## Thank you @fat-elvis for the recommendation and I thank you all for being a part of my Steemit family. I love my SSG family!
# I nominate @underground for next weeks grilling
