<p>[QUOTE=&quot;saltysam-1, post: 1331210, member: 23368&quot;]What would happen if the fiat money systems of the world failed? How would the world operate and trade? Currenty their is 1.43 ounces of above ground gold for every person on earth. That&#039;s based on the total mined over the last 2000 years. It includes bullion, coins, jewelry and anything containing gold. There is only 3.57 ounces of silver per person above ground. So what will the new moneys of the world be backed by? Partial backing? I&#039;m not sure if any percentage of the value of a bill based on trust, will suceed once trust is negated in currency. Do we all get a shovel and run off to the mines and start digging for more precious metals? The world as we know it, couldn&#039;t survive the wait. The answer seems more like a paradox than anything else.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
