Check it out and see if you can figure it out. I'm still thinking.

    Gold is $1400 an ounce. How many ounces will you need to hold you over for 1 year? How many guns, ammo, food and fuel can you buy for $1400? Which is really the better deal? I say product. You get more for your money and when you sell your goods in trade for gold you will get all the gold you need at a better price. How will gold be bartered? 1/10 ounce = 1 tank of gas? Or does 1 oz = tank of gas?

    On the gold coins it says:
    1/10 ounce coin $5
    1/4 $10
    1/2 $25
    1oz $50

    Now how does 2 1/10 oz coins have the same $ value as a 1/4 oz with 5% LESS gold?

    Or 2 1/4 oz coins has the same amount of gold but $5 less in buying power than a single 1/2 ounce coin.

    Is it not strange that 10 1/10 oz, 2 1/2 oz and 1 1oz all have the same gold and $ value. But the 1/4 oz seems to be the buzzard coin. You either have to have 5 of them or 1.25 oz to = the same value of the other coins?

    The news reported that this months Annual Vacation by our president and his family will be to a top-scale resort, the cost about $5 million for the 8 days. The reporter went on to say that this shouldn't alarm taxpayers because the president is paying for it with his own money because he is independently wealthy.

    A review of our presidents tax return shows his net worth at $3.6 million; his sources of income being royalties/publishing revenue from his three books, none of which remain on any best seller list and his salary for president $200,000 per year, increased this year despite sequestration to $400,000.

    So I'd like to know how anyone can afford an eight day vacation that will cost more than their entire net worth and income for the next year or two. Once I learn how it is done, maybe I can make reservations with the Alaska Outfitters for a trophy Dall Sheep hunt.

    So if I want to trade silver coin, how do we figure out the sales price!

    Seems odd to me.

    Minute rice. Ya put it in boiling water then remove it from the heat and let it NOT cook. So i guess you just "make" minute rice instead of cookin' it. Modern technology is something else.

    I've seen that before. I usually thought the seller had 3 virtually identical guns of the same make/model and just re-used the same photo. For example, if someone had 3 SAR-1's for auction.[This message has been edited by GreenLantern (edited 01-22-2002).]
