The famous rant by coin hobbyists of all kinds that say CRH is a waste of time, "you cant call it profit if you don't calculate the hours you spent finding the coins..", yes that's right to a point but who counts the hours wasted when they love what they are doing and are having fun with it? Its not a waste at all! Do you calculate the hours of wasted time you spend watching football games enjoying yourself? hehe I think not, to those people, you are either trolls or you really don't have fun doing anything at all..To have the mindset of having to rationalize and monetize you're time while doing something fun is beyond me..There's no reason to track hours (other than a nice log) besides the gas money it took to get the coins, that's the only exclusion. The whole process, mapping out the banks, talking to the tellers, buying potential silver at face value and getting home anxiously (or car if your like me and cant wait) to open up those lovely rolls is just awesome..Its like being apart of a secret club that no one else knows about..To me the money is just an added benefit of the hobby, the majority of the fun is the process and anticipation, because lets face it once you found your silver you can only stare at it for so long before you want to grab more rolls and repeat the process..Its the journey along the way that is thrilling..I can't think of an easier way of finding free money and where else to look but the banks lol..I know that if you went around collecting aluminum cans, your back would be sore by the time you collected 5 dollars worth, now that is just stupid! What kind of investment is like this? You invest 500 dollars worth, you get 500 dollars worth of coin, you find no silver, there is no loss and is most likely more fun and social interaction than you would get doing other things..What are your thoughts? 
Another thing is, people and posting these CRH videos on YouTube, are they really making the hobby of finding silver more scarce, or will the normal person even think twice about doing what they see in these videos? With the economy the way it is I could see an increase in lookers but also an increase in uneducated people dumping their collections at facevalue so technically there is more silver out there than ever..I also thought of getting a group of people here to contiguously flag their videos to discourage future posts lol..What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance!
