<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 708846, member: 15199&quot;]Ethics aside,&nbsp; why would anyone doing a service insist on precious metals instead of cash. Even if gold is $2500 an ounce, it is still set at a price of exchange. So why would anybody besides a &quot;horder&quot; want gold instead. You are the one needing the service, whether it be from a doctor, lawyer, or whoever, so they would just charge the 10,000 or more( on or off books) and buy what they want, including gold if they desire. </p><p><br /></p><p>If I was a doctor expecting doomsday, why accept gold, when antibiotics, insulin, oxycodone and other drugs would be a better medium of exchange in case of apocalypse.&nbsp; Gold can&#039;t replace antibiotics when your ( insert body part) is rotting off. If you need diabetes medication, even for type 2, you would trade at a steep exchange rate.</p><p><br /></p><p>IMO,</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
