alte utting ~ a ship on a bridge (munich, BY)

the ship 'alte utting' and the lake ammersee, a life span friends? not really, my dears 😄

the alte utting got after 66 years of duty (1950-2016) at the lake ammersee a new place for its retirement at a bridge in munich - sendling (in the lagerhaus street) and a new life as a bar, restaurant, beergarden 🍸🍕🍵🍻

rohstoffmesse münchen / precious metals fair munich / 2025

after the corona break and 1 year some special event without the usual masses of private investors, the old precious metals fair aka edelmetallmesse is back in town. unfortunately, it was extremely badly organized, so the most investors even did not knew there is a show in the city and the very few who knew have had extreme difficulties to find the entry to the 'kleine olympiahalle' located below a green lawn as there was not a single poster or sign outside the hall and also none in the whole olympiapark area. well, i would guess we've had just 10% of the usual crowd out there. it is really sad for the attended mining companies who pay a price for a booth there and then have almost no visitors ... 

i was there for 3 hours, met some old friends, didnt attend a single speach / presentation at their 2 always almost empty stages and presented that badly promoted event to my father who visits me in munich. anyway, i've bought few more (junior) mining shares next week:

  • MMG ~ metallic minerals corp. ~ recommendation of my long time investment buddy, axino's CEO wolfgang seybold. let's start a small position and watch its development ~ price per share incl. broker's fee 0.38 cad
  • PINN ~ pinnacle silver and gold ~ i like its CEO robert archer. he was the former CEO of great panther silver till 2017, later a board member and thus co-responsible for its bankruptcy/CCAA in 2022. unfortunatelly, great panther was one of my quite big silver mining positions and belongs to my top 3 failures up to date (to make a long sad story short: the new CEO invested in a gold mine in brasil and it went wrong). btw, the up to date performance of pinnacle (former newrange) i've bought 2 years ago is a catastrophy as well. for some reason i wanted to increase my stake to a round number of shares and average down my share price ~ price per share incl. broker's fee 0.124 cad
  • GMX ~ globex mining ~ i like the CEO jack stoch and the globex guys a lot even if the share price of this debt free company with huge portfolio of small mining properties does not develop very good (lower than most mining indexes, i suppose) ~ price per share incl. broker's fee 1.6 cad
  • PTX ~ ptx metals ~ i spoke to its CEO for very short time. i didnt wait for any info abt the company and told i'll look up the company on the internet later .... i've took his bussinss card ... and just out of good mood decided to start a very small position and watch its development in my portfolio ~ price per share incl. broker's fee 0.103 cad
  • SVE ~ silver one ~ price per share incl. broker's fee 0.382 cad. i've already had few shares from april at 0.221 CAD. i could self half of my SVE position in late decemberr 2025 for CAD 0.59, so the remaining position of this junior-junior silver explorer company is profit only holding
  • SVRS ~ silver storm mining ~ price per share incl. broker's fee 0.26 cad. price per share at my first trial in april 2025 was 0.135 CAD
  • AGI ~ alamos gold ~ a really profitable major mining company. one of its mines is located close to the SVE (or was it SVRS?) assets ... and therefore do the SVE / SVRS guys think their assets are a great opportunity 😀 ~ price per share incl. broker's fee 49.5 cad
  • QIM ~ quimbaya gold ~ canadian gold explorer with projects in colombia ~ price per share incl. broker's fee 0.88 cad. this was a stuoid move as i bought on recommendation of a promoter (friend) at very high price .... almost immediately broke the share price apart and even the extremely good overall market conditions for silver couldnt bring the price back (it was 0.53 CAD on december 18th, 2025). lets hope i can go out soon with no or just a small loss if the silver price continues to climb up the price ladder
  • FNV ~ franco nevada ~ extremely profitable major (gold) streaming company. do you know what streaming or a royalty company in the mining sector means? this are companies which provide cash to explorers or junior mining companies which help them to develop a mine. in turn they'll earn a net smelter royalty (NSR) of usually 2%-5% or a stream of gold/silver/copper/etc. at extremely favorable conditions for the entire mine life. this is usually a win win situalion for both parties of such an agreement. other big + well known streaming companies are e.g. wheaton precious metals (WPN), sandstorm gold (SSL). there is also the quite struggling gold royalty corp (GROY) in my portfolio which took over my phenomenally well performing 'atibiti royalties' (symbol RZZ, it was a spin-off from golden valley mines) many years ago. stupid me before (= my old me), i didnt increase my stake in atibity just not to 'destroy' the crazy profit percentage by adding more shares at higher prices ... how irrationaly stupid can an investor act, wouldnt you say? 😇~ FNV price per share incl. broker's fee 206.93 usd

paulinum ~ walking back in time

how crazy is that? three of us met some 30+ years after we left our student dorm paulinum again just to visit our old well known places 😀~ the LMU university, the surrounding streets, the nearby bars + restaurants which changed most over the time ... our student home still exists and functions as a refugee accommodation awaiting massive reconstruction today.

one of the back entries to the LMU university
 = ludwig-maximilians-universität in munich
like a student again ...
audimax, auditorium maximum, the biggest lecture hall at the LMU
paulinum, our old students home, rambergstr. 6, close
 to the LMU university witnessed better times before 
3 of us 🍀😊🍀
the bavarian atzinger guesthouse close to the LMU university
 could keep its student character over the years 🍻🍻🍻

highly NOT recommended aka do not visit the place where my munich pictures are stored. it is my still growing 'walking in munich album' with 1,000+ pictures. the sheer number of pictures + years covered would make you feel sick 😱

MSC = munich IN-security conference = NATO's war game planning = so sad ... but not in our town!

~~~

heaven & hell, which wars did 'they' planned and agreed on this time? who knows?

~~~

so true, dear mr. dr. ganiele ganser

~~~

warmongers, get out of our town! WE ARE COMING for you 😃

no MSC (munich security conference), no SiKo (sicherheitskonferenz), no wehrkundetagung (this was the original name of the event which means military science conference) ... of course, this is it still today. beyond any doubt it is the place where NATO and its henchmen (handlanger) plan the next wars. just read the list of this year's attendees and the war corporations and 'sponsors' presence here in munich. btw, it was already published, the next chairman of the MSC is going to become jens stoltenberg, the former NATO general secretary, who is currently tied up as norwegian secretary of finance. any other questions or opinions? 😓

=> we, the people of munich want peace and say NO MSCNO WARS!

omg, what a great speach by the u.s. vice president jd vance at the MSC 2025 without any notepad => the thread to western europe is not russia or china. the real thread comes from within, especially the lack of values like e.g. freedom of expression and no acceptance for the will of the people (e.g. the election in romania cancelled by the EU because the EU didnt like the outcome ... wtf!?!?!!!) if you asked me, the western europe is not ready for free speach & freedom yet. hopefully it will become soon 😃
what did i told ya above? DE defense ministry pistorius is not ready for freedom of expression.
on top, our chancellor scholz + economy ministry habeck + ms. strack-zimmermann-rheinmetall 
(she holds some high military position in the EU parliament) told s.th. similar😁
the 1st protesters group (karlsplatz-stachus)
so strange! s.o. from DE+AT is going for me and for my blog, you see? 
about 1,800 clicks the last 2 days instead of 100-200 regularly ...
so crazy! our well-known WW3 catalyst zelensky is the
advertising figure for MSC 2025 (source MSC)

i'll upload more pictures + insights after the demo (i promise 😇). the 1st anti-siko peace alliance begins at 1 p.m. at karlsplatz-stachus and the second peace alliance at 2 p.m. at königsplatz. just please dont ask me, why even this two alliances with a common goal cant march together against the so called elites. the divide and conquer principle works fine, you see? so sad.
munich (münchen) ~ karlsplatz-stachus
yellow-red-green => lithuania? what the hell is happening there?
 ... or are these folks kurds or the like?
stop wars, fake news, everything ...
this kind of policemen / -women were waiting for us today 😱
some ukrainians in munich ~ no putin, no NATO =>
=> independence and an own ukrainian way?
the russian telegram channel oruzhejnyj_master reports sober and unemotional abt the russian-ukrainian-war aka SMO (special military operation). 2025-02-21 => 69% of doneck and 99% of lugansk is under russian control. the russians call it often 'liberated' by the russian army ... well
it's not a war, it's genocide in gaza / palestine
every year one of my highlights 💖
munich (münchen) is beautiful, isnt it? münchen - königsplatz 
confucius says peace is the way 😏
against nazis, of course ... they sit in brussels & berlin, dont they?
pace for peace
freie linke münchen. the free left ... here i know few folks quite well
peace is colorful, you know?
true or not? who knows?
the were good speakers (offline) and few international guest like the former
u.s. nuclear weapons inspector scott ritter (online) at our MSC protest
corona bavaria. these nice bavarian & politically dedicated girls are
best known for their corona-protest-song 'bitte geht!'. the micro+boxes
were not good enough today, so i've linked a youtube-version of their
main song today 'menschheitsfamilie' at the end of this blog post
is the corona vaccine just for the ass? (it means good for nothing in german)
1st worldwide peace? 💕
farmers for peace
few or our free speach heroes ...
(DE) out of NATO! => yes, yes, yes :-)
NO divide and conquer 😀
(1st?) worldwide peace

my buddies from 'stop (air base) ramstein' for peace
make peace
what a biker! #5 out of 8
what a biker! #3 out of 8
what a biker! #8 out of 8
who is silent, accepts. ~ so sad, so true ... 
... unfortunately a sad reality for the major part of our society 😭


==> corona bavaria with few songs (e.g. menschheitsfamilie = we are one mankind family = a term promoted by the swiss historician & publicist dr. ganiele ganser) ... the lyrics are really good, music also quite good ... i better like the song menschheitsfamilie by morgaine (often sung together with kilez more), but maybe only because i've heard it already more often ... just watch both songs down here and create your own opinion 😉
menschheitsfamilie #2
menschheitsfamilie #3


even more pictures in my corresponding google album here.
