Sell your silver or keep it

If you owned some precious metal, let"s say, some silver bullion bars, would you keep it for years and sell it only if you needed to, or would you sell your silver as soon as possible? You know, prices of precious metals tend to fluctuate a lot. Although silver and gold will always be valuable, their value will become greater from time to time. I guess that the decision depends on what kind of person you are. If you are rather quick to react, if your main purpose of life is to use it and have fun and not to waste time because life is short, and if you are rather an extraverted person and a quick decision maker then you would probably sell your silver really quickly. On the other hand, those of us who are reflective, think a lot before they take the smallest step in their lives, ask for other people"s opinions before they make their decisions and are afraid about their future, would probably postpone selling their valuables. After all, anything can happen in our lives. Although we have trouble talking, or even thinking about it, we all know that life events cannot really be predicted. You may sell your silver now and regret it in the future or you might wait till you are old and sell it then, but at the same time, you might not need it any more.
