<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 814894, member: 112"]Minerals, precious metals, water - all of that will likely be virtually worthless 200 years from now. Technology will have advanced to the point to be able to extract all the minerals you want, cheaply, from the ground & ocean. Same for water, desalination and recycling will be the norm. Same for precious metals - more gold and silver exist in ordinary salt water than has ever been mined. Not to mention the minerals, precious metals, etc that will be being mined on other planets 200 years from now. </p><p><br /></p><p>You want something that will increase in value in 200 years, that cost less than $500 now - buy some books. Not just any books, books that have a very low number published, like some coin books. Many books on coins have 500 or fewer copies published. And have them signed by the author. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have a few books that I paid $75 for less than 10 years ago. Today those books sell for around $1500.
