The reason why gold is $1800 an ounce is simple... The world is filled with Lyndon LaRouche thinkers who just have to have currency backed by something and they worry what they are going to do after the big asteroid hits Earth or the revolution comes to their town...

Bad news for the gold/bead worshipers...

It won't do them any good after the asteroid or revolution... Nope...

There is something called "paradox of value"... I'll lay it real simple... Man is in the desert and not had anything to drink in a couple days and about to give up when he comes to a guy with a little lemonaide stand... But the guy is into diversity so he sell both gold and lemonaide...

You pick...

All that glitter is not gold and even the stuff that is won't get you out of most jams that come along in life...

Might do better with baseball cards???

Me??? I'd use that spare $$$ to put solar panels on the roof so if the shit hits the fan I got electricity... Or a garden... Or, or...

Gold don't do anything more than beads or sock dolls...
