Fact: They've been hoarding gold for centuries.
Do you really think you buying a bullion of a couple hundred is a drop in the bucket to what they've been keeping away?
Consider this: if they have been hoarding gold, and only, say, 10% of gold is in circulation, then any gold seized from them will only drop the price of gold.
So is it a good investment?
Similarly with Bitcoin, only those who can afford massive crypto-generating server farms will have the lion's share of the coins in circulation. If all that Bitcoin is seized, along with other crypto-currencies, then it will only drop the value of the coins.
So is that a good investment?
For gold, I'd still say yes, but not because it has historically been presented solely as an investment security. It's actually a commodity. Gold is used in industry to make the most historically ground-breaking technology not yet seen (nanotechnology for instance). Gold is the key to futures in medicine, health, and information transfer.
If my research is correct, the land will be flowing with milk and honey; "liquid" silver and gold, I shit you not!
Once/if the market crashes, don't expect any good things for gold, silver, or especially cyrpto-currencies. You're gonna lose money on all, at least in the short-term, as the Cabal actors sell off all they have to try and jump ship.
Remember, you can't eat money...
As for the metals, however, I expect there is gonna be a massive dip once it is announced the "new" US government just seized quadrillions (an unimaginable amount) of dollars worth of gold and precious metals to restore its economic independence from interest-debt slave usury by insurgent forces.
There will be so much injected into commerce all at once that we will run right past a gold standard encouraging everyone to have gold and right back to the point where gold is worth less than a burger. The shake-up will be so great that it is impossible to know where the cards will first land.
After that dip, however, the price will adjust again because of the sheer volume of uses for gold. Silver and gold will be as common-place as copper, by my estimations. There's that much of it stowed away...
In that sense, you have to understand what that really means -- all civilizations WILL RUN ON METALS. Just as shipping runs on oil, world powers will run on precious metals. At that point, they will all rebound and literally become a standard bearer of what every purchasable item on Earth is actually worth.
In other words, everything will revolve around the value of the precious metals therein. Honestly, that's how it should be...
Oh, and every future medicine is going to revolve around precious metals. I could tell you how that's gonna work out exactly, but you won't believe me just yet and me telling you now will actually sabotage your future acceptance of it. It goes as far as to why they are harvesting blood of not only children but all blood in general.
It's that crazy.
So, invest wisely and consider what I've suggested. Do note that popular media has been pushing gold investment for a while, and I've got this sick feeling in my stomach that going all in on it might be feeding them in the short-term.
If you don't have the metal physically in your possession, I'd wager it is a setup to siphon assets for a last-ditch effort for Cabal management to cut ropes and jump ship.
I would have to say I don't believe you can convert one metal into another metal.
The only thing that makes Gold and silver useful as currency is the fact that it is rare but not so rare that there is not enough to go around.
The more people there are the more gold/silver you need. Otherwise something else that is available will be used.
Gold and silver is not about investing. It is a medium of exchange. The dollar is the medium of exchange that we are forced to use.
It is not an honest medium of exchange because it is designed to lose value over time. If you sell a widget to somebody but they have nothing you are interested in buying you take the medium of exchange and with that you can buy something else from someone else. That medium of exchange should by design hold its value otherwise there is fraud in the mix. Of course there will be movement in the prices which will effect the medium of exchange. Those movements in price should not be a one way move.
Unfortunately, that's not purely the case.
Gold and silver are used in every smart phone and information technology device in the competitive market.
They are more of an industry item now than ever before.
Tying currency to gold and silver means tying our currency to the advancement of newer technologies; as more technological advancements are made, the value of gold and silver actually goes up.
That's not entirely bad, but it isn't sustainable. Rampant deflation can be just as bad as inflation. The ideal is a steady base for currency; one that doesn't change drastically with new discoveries.
Like I said gold/silver are commodities. They are rare enough to be used as mediums of exchange. If they become too rare a new medium of exchange will replace them. For 6000 years gold and silver have been "money". They have stood the test of time. The point is no one can just print more gold/silver or any other Commodity. They are hard assets that are expensive to produce. As a medium of exchange they job is to hold value between transactions. Back when gold was 20-30 dollars an ounce about 20 ounces would buy you a brand new car. Today about 20 ounces would buy you a brand new car.
While I don't know the number I would bet that x amount of bushels of corn would buy the same amount of gold as it did 100 years ago. Maybe 1000 years ago. Of course there is movement in price but on average everything is the same. A new car cost about $600 dollars 100 years ago. (20-30 ounces of gold at $20-$30 dollars an ounce)Today a new car is 30-40k. gold is about $1900 an ounce 20 ounces = about $38k All that changed is the value of the store of value dollar. That is The hidden tax.
