A lot sooner than you think, too. Better stock up on everything. Get some basic tools, like an ax, saw, nails, hammer, knife, planer, magnifying glass, compass, crystal radio, etc. Once the supply chain crashes, you won't be able to buy any of it.

    precious metals will be a useless liability during a real catastrophe

    they'll only be worthwhile if you can make it through without having them taken from you

    that stock is gonna be worthless, one penny once 3D printing becomes mainstream.

    I don't care how "worthless" gems or metals are. I will just buy more of them when the price goes down, worst case scenario they have industrial application and there is no way I lose more money than other people who base their entire career around it.

    Nah businesses are always growing and evolving, if 3D printing becomes mainstream then not everyone will prefer to use a 3D printer, they will just tell Amazon to 3D print something for them in a warehouse down the road and give same day delivery.

    I don't care how "worthless" gems or metals are. I will just buy more of them when the price goes down, worst case scenario they have industrial application and there is no way I lose more money than other people who base their entire career around it.

    Even if there were industrial applications, there is no way you can leverage enough money to hoard enough to actually be part of the supply chain. You will just send them off for peanuts.

    Who cares about our lifetimes? For our lifetimes gold is an awful investment anyway, either pick whether you want short term profit or a long term stable investment. Gold is for the latter, and sucks at it anyway.

    I would rather have gold than not have it. No reason to not have something. Being wealthy means having a lot of everything

    Being wealthy means being able to do cool shit, converting your useful, investable money into useless, convenient-to-steal bricks under 10ft of dirt on your land is the opposite of cool, it is lame as fuck. It is even lamer if you just buy gold virtually so it is just bricks in the basement if some bank in Zingapore

    Maybe it's what being wealthy means if you are 8 trillion years old, grandpa

    Gold wont be worthless. it just is losing its purpose for electronics. gold tip connectors really aren't much better than other metals. they just look nicer. pretty soon things will become crystal processing. etched in crystals with lasers reading them or some weird shit. probably few metal connectors will be required except for maybe peripherals

    However Gold will always be needed for watches and fancy luxury items as it always has been.

    Im curious. If you can messure exactly 1 pure gold ounce 99.997+ onto your own molding, if you can stamp your own coins? with your face on it. if you had enough gold you could make it a collectors Item if you only stamp like 1000 of them out.

    it might fetch an extra 50bux just as a oddity gift. maybe not YOUR face. But Mine. or something neat. Maybe a figurine. like a dog or a car. but it's pure and it's 1 ounce. so it would be tiny if not a coin but say a car. also it would be hard to put into a coin collection book. cause it would be bulgy but you could place them in little wooden pedestals with say a glass crown or casing to place on a shelf with other collectables.

    it doesn't look easy to do. you might have to melt two halves and use industrial glue to make it a whole piece.

    fags!

    Gold is inert. it just passes through you. no beneficial mineral like iron in it. it's pure and it's inert.

    Gold is just valued because once upon a time it was a good material to use as a currency but now we don't need to do that any more so it's just another commodity, and a shit one.

    If the US doesnt use it, china will. it's a standard of good fortune and is a symbol of success over there. as it has been in most countries. gold Leif is popular for decorating molding on walls and other fixtures.

    Nah all of that is just emotional bullshit in reality it is a terrible commodity that has no utility.

    In acetonitrile solution, gold(III) chloride (1%) catalyses the alkylation of 2-methylfuran (sylvan) by methyl vinyl ketone at the 5-position in 40 minutes @ 20'C with 91% yield.

    1- not paki coin.

    2- not fiat coin. a fiat coin has to be made of cheap, shitty metal to represent the value of precious metal.
