My wife wants the pantry “done.”
It already seems finished to me.
There are shelves in there for our rice, sugar, flour, canned goods, plus surplus snacks and sundries.
There’s space for extra food gadgets like the dehydrator, ice cream maker, air fryer, and even that hot dog roller and bun warmer in Oscar Meyer colors that we definitely need.
We also have two stand up freezers: one for the annual cow, and one for the annual pig plus whatever other critters I come home with.
And there’s a stickered-up beer fridge and some makeshift wine and whiskey racks.
Seems all good to me.
But we apparently need built-in food shelves. And drawers.
We also need a built-in wine rack and fridge.
When it’s complete, I’m sure I’ll wonder how we ever made it this long without a proper wet bar in there.
Before the first estimate even comes I had the privilege of paying for the design and renderings.
So it’s a good thing we sold some Bravo Mining (TSX-V: BRVO)(OTC: BRVMF) earlier this year for 681%.
That’s a company with a platinum group element project in Brazil that also has nickel and copper. We did the IPO alongside Rick Rule at C$0.64 back in 2022. It was over C$5.00 in January as we took some profits off the table.
But knowing my wife’s taste, that might not be enough.
I might have to trim some Revival Gold (TSX-V: RVG)(OTC: RVLGF). We financed that most recently at C$0.35 per share in 2023. It’s currently up more than 200% from that price, trading over C$1.00 as it continues to execute on its plan of becoming the next gold mine built in the U.S. Great Basin, with a clear path to a potential 2029 startup at Mercur in Utah with permitting underway.
That financing came with C$0.45 warrants. So even if I sell some, I still have to the ability to get more exposure starting with a position that’s already +100% in the money.
That should cover any crazy ideas she discusses with the designer or contractors.
But if it doesn’t — or if there are dreaded mid-project additions — there are other ways I can come up with cash.
Because at Private Placement Intel, we’re sitting on a number of large recent winners.
In 2025 alone we financed:
- Daura Gold (TSX-V: DGC)(OTC: DGCOF) at C$0.06. Today it’s at C$0.38, putting us up 533%;
- North Shore Uranium (TSX-V: NSU)(OTC: NSURF) at C$0.05. Today it’s at C$0.30, putting us up 500%; and
- Kincora Copper (TSX-V: KCC)(OTC: BZDLF) at C$0.30. Today it’s at C$1.71, putting us up 470%.
In fact, we’re sitting on 40-some positions that we’ve financed this way going back to 2017. And the average return is over 350% per position.
There’s always a new project. Or an upcoming tuition.
And there’s always an upcoming deal at Private Placement Intel.
This week, I just sent my documents and funds for an exploration play in the Yukon that comes from one of the world’s most famous gold prospectors. You can participate in it alongside us.
One of the bathrooms will need updated by the time that company drills.
Call it like you see it,
