FROM BANKING FAMILY
TO STACKING FAMILY
My stacking story — and why surfing and sound money are more alike than you'd think.
MY STORY
THE JOURNEY THAT BUILT THE STACK
My dad handed me my first silver dollars when I was 8 years old and supercharged it when he introduced me to vintage silver in 2019.
I started studying everything. Gold as wealth insurance. Silver as the underdog with massive upside. Platinum as the quiet performer. Dollar-cost averaging. Premiums. Storage. The whole ecosystem.
I built Stacking Surfer to share what I've learned —Platinum as the quiet speculator, and actually useful. No fluff, no fear-mongering. Just real stacking knowledge with epic beach vibes.
Goal: Make this the fastest-growing, most beloved gold & silver stacking channel on YouTube. Stack on, Surfers! 🤙
