There is roughly $740 billion in u.s. currency in existence,

-Why do you count only physical currency ? The dollars in my checking account are not money ? CD's are not money ?
China's reserves are bigger than $740 billion

-The dollar is not money, because it fails to satisfy one of the requirements of money: the store of value

-The dollar is backed by a government that is technically bankrupt and will default (through inflation)

-Only gold can be obtained through hard work, because it cannot be printed from thin air.

-Goldman Sachs obtains millions per day with no work

-Gold has one property that is more useful than just about anything else on earth, it is a protector of wealth from government confiscation.
