You can get stuck 'bag holding' silver be it physical or SLV. If you you'll see it spent pretty much the last 5 years between 20 to 15 dollars. If you were someone who bought between 2011 and 2013 you would not be very happy.
Unless you are into numismatics (cool hobby imo), or of a prepper mindset, I think trading SLV is smarter than physical. It is easier to liquidate and no commission on most trades. This also gives you the option to buy or sell options. Options add the benefits of collecting premium or accessing leverage.
So you’d rather get stuck holding some worthless piece of paper instead. Got it.
Not likely.
I also stated if you have a prepper mindset, then by all means by physical.
