Gold Musing

A #sulbimesunday to all of you!

After being under the weather for some days, I think I am all mended and ready to go back to work tomorrow (and a short vacation next week, lol).

Let's talk a little about gold.


People have talked about gold throughout history in addition to admiring and collecting it. Almost all of history's great personalities have expressed their opinions on the matter. Economists, politicians, philosophers, poets, humorists, and others have contributed insightful thoughts about gold.

And with all the discussion have emerged some pearls of wisdom, so to speak. There are old as gold sayings regarding the real worth of gold in society, as well as proverbs, metaphors, and thoughts by politicians who have attempted to adapt the same power that gold possesses to other spheres of life.

Economists, bankers, and investors
share their insights about gold.

The great merit of gold is precisely that it is scarce; that its quantity is limited by nature; that it is costly to discover, to mine and to process; and that it cannot be created by political fiat or caprice.1 — Henry Hazlitt

If you don’t trust gold, do you trust the logic of taking a beautiful pine tree, worth about $4,000-$5,000, cutting it up, turning it into pulp and then paper, putting some ink on it and then calling it one billion dollars?2 — Kenneth J. Gerbino

Bitcoin is not an actual physical coin, and if computers are shut down, you can't buy or sell them. That's why nothing will ever replace gold and silver coins themselves, and all investors should have them at home or in a safe deposit box.3 — Mark Skousen

If you want an alternative currency, check out gold. It has stood the test of thousands of years as a store of value and medium of exchange.2 — Paul Singer

Gold is valuable everywhere in the world and is not dependent on political systems, any specific government policy or set of policies.2 — Roy Sebag

If ever there was an area in which to do the exact opposite of that which government and the media urge you to do, that area is the purchasing of gold.4 — Robert Ringer

Gold will be around, gold will be money when the dollar and the euro and the yuan and the ringgit are mere memories.5</sup — Richard Russell

Commodities such as gold and silver have a world market that transcends national borders, politics, religions and race. A person may not like someone else's religion, but he'll accept his gold.6 — Robert Kiyosaki

The world's central banks and the International Monetary Fund still have vaults full of bullion, even though currencies are no longer backed by gold. Governments hold on to it as a kind of magic symbol, a way of reassuring people that their money is real.7 — James Surowiecki

Now these three are classic:

The finest compliment you can pay a man is that his word was as good as gold.8 — Evel Knievel

Regardless of the dollar price involved, one ounce of gold would purchase a good-quality man’s suit at the conclusion of the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, the presidency of Franklin Roosevelt and today.4 — Peter A. Burshre

Gold is the money of kings; silver is the money of gentlemen; barter is the money of peasants; but debt is the money of slaves.9 — Norm Franz

Every gold quotation is based on reality and reflects the significant impact that gold has had throughout human history. Gold is a part of existence, from the gold coins of the Renaissance and colonial periods to the gold bars treasured by ancient civilizations, and from modern gold bullion jewelry to all of these things.

The history of the world is, after all, the history of gold.

I stack what I can, @bulliontools!
I like the quotes. Sometimes, when I get tired of stacking, I read the quotes from the internet to get me going!
Yes, I'll keep on stacking!

Gold is money. But electricity is everything. Without that, value is a crap shoot. No power means my CZ 858 is likely more valuable than gold.

Gold is a safe haven for many over the year, good quotes shared, gold is visually pleasing, workable, does not tarnish or corrode, it was one of the first metals to attract human attention.
