When I was a kid, my parents would have friends over to play bridge. I could see how much fun they had. Their spirited card games lasted for hours. One day I asked to learn the game. After 5 minutes, I walked away from the bridge lesson. It was too complicated. The precious metals subculture is also too complex. It takes on so much analysis. It's more complicated than it should be.
