Baab, I really hope you're just yankin our chain and not actually tied up in a scam. These scammers are manipulative. A lot of them are in it for the long run, they get to know you over a long period of time. You refer to her as your fiance, which means you've probably known her for a while...

Some time between 15 years and when the Black Rhino becomes extinct. If I had to choose, I would stack Rhinos.

Jokes on them coz we Aussies are cash poor! Last I heard they were proposing a 0.05% tax, so $5 for every $10,000

Investing in the robotics take-over is something I've been mulling over. I always used to think; all these technological advances are great.. it means we all have to work less as robots do our jobs for us. Alas, the population is working harder, longer and for less money. Have to position...

Have our cows hit peak milk?

Only about 12% away from the all time high... a small dip in the AUD and a little rise in the gold price and we'd be there. That's pretty amazing considering all the negative sentiment.

I would head to a guitar forum and post the make/model/year and get a rough valuation. If the forum is based in the US, keep in mind that Australia can be 30-50%+ more expensive even after taking into account the exchange rate. We pay considerably more for most music gear. So see if you can find...

Regardless of whether Rickards is right or wrong, that video was a 45min infomercial. I was surprised there wouldn't be a free gold plated screwdriver set if I called immediately to make 6x easy monthly payments. Out of curiosity I followed the links to obtain a free copy. Alas, that "free"...

I too don't think we'll ever go down to the grocer with a handful of junk silver and various rounds. The population is too big and not enough people own precious metals. You can't have a medium of exchange that no one owns. Hunger by those absent of coin would lead to riots and theft. Any...

That's it The video says the earth's crust is 0.075g of silver per tonne. Which means you'd have to process 400 tonnes of dirt to get 1 ounce of silver. Can you say $100,000 silver? :lol:

Merry Christmas

20m long, 20m wide, 20m high In regards to the Earth's core having lots of gold; that's just 1 man's theory. Based on a lot of assumptions and theoretical calculations. It's a nice thought to think of the core being a ball of molten gold, ready to spew out of my backyard. But the calculations...

ISIS is also selling oil they stole, netting them millions of dollars a day that they can spend on weapons to further their cause. I will not be buying their stolen metal.

Those inventions belong to those who lived before you. Great minds. Our ancestors have invented things that have improved our lives beyond measure. Let us hope they do not turn in their graves at the thought of us using their inventions to argue on an internet forum. Seek to contribute to...

Hah

Nice score If they are in particularly good condition you could get a bit more than what the silver content is worth. Those round 50c can sell for $10ea, which is about 40% above spot. For average circulated coins, you would probably get spot on ebay right now. Minus about 10% for fees.

Money laundering perhaps?

Platinum 190 might not be the best metal to stack; it's an unstable isotope which eventually decays into a different metal. So you put it away in your safe, come back and find you've got a pile of Osmium worth considerably less. And also a slightly radioactive safe. Granted, the process takes...

I'm sure all the children born/sold/kidnapped into a life of sex slavery would disagree with this thread. You would have a different opinion if the chains were around your neck and you were forced to open your legs as a 9 year old girl. Slavery is disgusting. And I only had to give 1 reason why...
