yeup. the neat thing about gold is that no one needs to be convinced and turned to consider gold to be money, because it is money, whether folks consider it so or not, unlike the brain deadening drip that is fiat paper

there is a antique 'fiat money' store near my office, and they display lots of now useless but still colourful 'money'

there are two antique coin shops also within easy walking distance from my office, and much of the coin inventory is gold, silver, or a mix - the coins are still useful and will be for as long as we do not go extinct, i suspect

the interesting thing i find about now is that we are witnessing the failure of a grand experiment, one that pits human design against human character, once again, and a global monetary reset followed by the dark interregnum - the process may take 20-30 years, but that is how processes go at times, and for those sovereigns recognizing the prime evil we are dealing with, prosperity, for others, regret or life as always, a serf in fiat system

FACT: the longer the massses believe as CB ilaine apparently does, the better the contrarians will be to accumulate gold as they would, by and by, at normal speed in pace with savings growth, and without leverage

we must recognize a favor for what it is, a blessing
