Thanks for answering Hutch.
I admit the word "pyramid" did cross my mind while thinking about this. Kind of like internet stocks-eh. (joke)
As far as storage costs go, We could melt it into one big glob and let the owners on the internet "keep an eye on it" (half joke)
With gold at $290, how much would it cost for a couple of options to buy at say $4-5 hundred, 12 months out.
When I talked about dividend, I meant returning one option to the shareholder to do with as he pleases.
The other option exercised by the company when the price of physical gold (due to demand) has caused a price in the 7-8 hundred range.
Do you think that it might be possible to create enough demand (investor interest)on physical gold to cause it go this high.
Or would the IMF, CENTRAL BANKS, and PRIVATE INVESTORS be willing to sell enough physical to prevent this kind of a rise.

If it did go that high and the options were (sold?)exercised, the capital raised from the option exercise could be used by the company for something constructive. Such as buying a sovereign undeveloped island to be developed as a resort retirement complex, with the physical gold stored there in a structure. Company investors would have priority for immigration/and or residency.
This would provide income on company assets (money made from derivitive), by selling island residential property, businesses and income from the palace/hotel resort.
This would provide the shareholder with security of finances but also security of person.(As on this sovereign island home invasion on old people would be tolerated like drug traffickers in Singapore. Might not be a bad investment for the future?
What do ya think! Not a hope in Hell!?
