<p>[QUOTE=&quot;InfleXion, post: 1340140, member: 29012&quot;]It matters from the standpoint of misleading people into thinking that certain assets have value because of what they are, and not what they represent. If finance and investing texts choose to misuse the word they can do so, but I&#039;m not going to agree that it&#039;s accurate when it&#039;s obviously going against the definition of the word. I&#039;m not going to argue semantics any further because at this point it&#039;s counterproductive. My previous posts explain things perfectly clearly.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Gold does have financial value at any time in the past throughout all of human history. Sure there&#039;s no way to know whether that will be the case in 2000 years. Regardless, I used a long timeframe to illustrate the point that time is of no consequence when intrinsic value exists.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
