    Would appreciate any info on lenders who accept gold and or silver as collateral. Gracias in advance.

    Swap physicals for exchange-traded funds (SLV or GLD) and use securities based lending.

    The effective cost of the instruments is no different than paying for your own vault/securities. And similar tax treatment too.

    Or use metals futures. They’re already margined, 60/40 tax treatment could be better for some.

  2. Its fairly well-known that warm/red lighting is the most pleasant and least disruptive to night vision.

    Not to my wife, who can’t sleep without a night light. When we stay at her parents house, the night lights are mounted high on the wall—directly in my line of sight, and theyre RGB but my wife insist on keeping them at fucking GREEN, and they sear through my eyelids, right into my retina, when im simply trying to sleep.

    You want a clean poop spot in the morning? Any random hotel lobby restroom.  Just walk right the fuck in.  

    Toilet hell on earth in the morning would be home depot.

    Hotel toilets are definitely the move.

    But it’s got to be a big hotel, like an international chain, with high turnover and maximum anonymity.

    Can’t do it in a small boutique hotel with a tiny lobby like they’ve got in hypercrowded cities or small towns. The desk can literally and figuratively smell drive-by poopers from a mile away.

  4. Trivia for the next time you find yourself in a pub quiz.

    The contemporary restaurant service where youre brought one course after another is called Service a la Russe.

    It was taken from the practices of the Russian imperial court, and displaced the then continental style of Service a la Francaise, where all the courses are brought at once to display an impressive table presentation.

    The terms are in French because this was codified by Antoine Careme, the precursor to Escoffier, who basically was the first chef godfather
