    "....The trustee overseeing the liquidation of the failed brokerage has proposed dumping all remaining customer assetsgold, silver, cash, options, futures and commoditiesinto a single pool that would pay customers only 72% of the value of their holdings. In other words, while traders already may have paid the full price for delivery of specific bars of gold or silverand hold "warehouse receipts" to prove itthey'll have to forfeit 28% of the value....."

    Ouch.

    Keep it well hidden, guys. ;)

    hmmmm - coincidence that the timing of this decision coincides with the recent drop in prices? :/

    Somehow I doubt it is

    These sneaky buggers are really digging deep into their book of dirty tricks now!

    They invented the game, they make the rules as they go.

    That is just so wrong. Perhaps a sign of things to come. :(

    More fool them for trusting smiling men in suits I think.
    Perhaps a sign? No, an obvious sign my friend. If you don't hold it, you don't own it.

    None.

    People just assume someone is looking out for them, when in reality you need to look out for yourself.

    And people think that their super is safe? The criminals in suits are off the leash. They will take everything. And give themselves a pay rise as they do it because their job is so stressful.

    You laugh, but somewhere out there some guy (or girl) is "enjoying" their bullion waaaay too much.

    And then they'll sell it and you might buy it.

    Pirate "WTF? these all say 'copy'!!!!"

    If this is happening now, imagine what's going to happen to people's super sooner or later. Banker tyrants have largely conquered Greece and are planning on taking islands too add to their loot. Anyone who can just conquer countries like that should be watched closely, these forces could easily do the same to Australia (believe it or not)
