Yep, And, if someone comes to me with a small paper rectangle with numbers on it & someone else shows up with a humk of gold or silver, each wanting the same product from me, Ill most likely accept the metal over the paper, because paper currency has always, without fail, become worth exactly the intrinsic value of the paper it was written on. No paper currency has ever lasted, gold & silver have always been accepted as valuable .


Yonuh, did you look up Tally Sticks?

where's the gold motorcycles??

I did go gold panning once on the American river ,close to Sutters Mill.
With my very first try I found a little nugget about the size of my pinky nail, After that you couldn't get me out of that river,I found a few more flecks ,but that was it, I looked like a prune.8 hrs work for a buck and a half. :'(

Yonuh,, why is that dollar bill valuable?
Intrinsic value. interesting concept.

1. gold is pretty useful, sorda.
2. gold stores and retains value over long periods of time
3. gold is right now artificially overpriced at least 50%
4. gold is used about 50% in jewelry, 40% in investments, and 10% in industry.
5. gold is also difficult to mine, there are "only" about 5 billion troy
ounces worth mined on earth so far, this is less than 1 coin per person.


Now, gold cannot be eaten but has been for some reason valueble
to man since the beginning of recorded history, why?

Because Yonuh gold was/is the key ingredient, along with some precious
gems, for the ancient civilizations (pre-rome, pre-egypt, pre everything)
to make their alchemical based comunicator gadgets so humans
could communicate with beings that inhabit the other higher planes
of existance; it so happened that these gadgets kinda looked like
jewlery (think of a mix between a ouija board and a glorified
mood-ring) and I think this is the real reason why most of us are
instinctively, subconsciously attracted to jewlery.

This is not a joke, this is one of the ultimate secrets of our age
and any serious student of *real* ancient history or of kabbala
or magick knows exactly what I'm takling about.

Hope this thread doesnt get censored cause if this, L8r

... by supply/demand market manipulation due to
dirty insider trading using money that only exists
on a computer screen, holding it until the price goes
up and then selling it back to your crooked banker
buddy to repeat the process again and again till it
goes unnaturally from $300 to 1,300 in a decade,
thats how

also people are scared of inflation and of all paper money
so everyone knows gold (and silver) is/are the way to go,
but NOT at $1,300 for a 31 gramm coin, jeez

Stimpy , the pound Stirling has been up there for many years it has always taken more dollars to buy a pound that the other way around ,
the Pound rules. When I came here it was $4.50 to buy one pound,
now it's about $1.80 to buy a pound. I would take a million pounds over a million dollars anyday.
