Everything that glistens is not....
 

The gold price is going through the roof because people and nations don't trust paper money anymore.
What is so laughably ironic about this is the fact that some gold bars which were legitimately bought from national stores have been found to be
gold plated tungsten (which happens to weigh the same).

extract-
Roughly 15 years ago – during the Clinton Administration [think Robert Rubin, Sir Alan Greenspan and Lawrence Summers] – between 1.3 and 1.5 million 400 oz tungsten blanks were allegedly manufactured by a very high-end, sophisticated refiner in the USA [more than 16 Thousand metric tonnes]. Subsequently, 640,000 of these tungsten blanks received their gold plating and WERE shipped to Ft. Knox and remain there to this day. I know folks who have copies of the original shipping docs with dates and exact weights of “tungsten” bars shipped to Ft. Knox.

I suggest stockpiling non perishable food instead - it will be 'worth its weight in gold' when the money system collapses due to greed.

this is in Anything Goes due to its 'conspiratorial nature':rolleyes:
