interesting you should post that - I just sent this email out regarding Chapman's oil/gold conversion for India/China and Iran - ballpark figures, but eyeopening - did I screw up?

"1 million barrels at $100/barrel = $100 million per day. At current prices, we’re talking

almost 60 thousand ounces of gold per day = roughly 2 tons of gold per day. "



"if China and India spend 2 tons of gold per day for crude oil"



WORLD OIL CONSUMPTION - The IEA forecasts the world will use 91 million barrels of oil per day in 2012

WORLD GOLD PRODUCTION - 2 500 tonnes in 2010

LETS USE 100 MILLION barrels oil/day for round number sake SO THE WORLD NEEDS 200 TONS/DAY of GOLD

200 tons x 365 DAYS = 73,000 TONS of GOLD per year.

Am I way off on my numbers and conversions?????

I luv it..... someone just pulled the lynch pin out of the whole world economic system.
