Not as much as you may think, there have been whole cultures of folks who placed no value in Gold, not just a few exceptions. The last time we...
Well, the last time I answered that honestly, I got arrested :eek:
Maybe, but since we are going on "gut" I would say this sword cuts both ways, as my gut is telling me that there would be close to zero so called...

Well, here is an example of why I think the the bullion bloggers and such lead the PM Bulls down a wrong path. Let's look at Sprott. As you...
