>Who /gold/ here?
I have a friend who runs a gold and silver store and he lets me buy it at 3% above spot which is better than anything I have found online. I have yet to find anything online where you can buy gold below 5% markup on spot.

Im all in ETH. Gold is so 2300BC
>>1107233
Fuck off.
>>1107231
less than 3%
>>1107231
Im in metals too. I have gold stocks and silver coins. Waiting for the Great Unfolding, get comfy lads
>>1107248
>not buying the actual metals
Pleb

Im a fucking student with 2000$ in stock and 500$ in silver coins. I cant do much tbhfam and keeping the actual metal would be complicated. Just get some abx and wait until it all unfolds. Gold should be at 1300 anytime soon.

If the happening actually happens having gold stock will be useless. Having actual gold would be helpful.

I get paid in refined metals.
Refinery takes a % of the gold, silver, copper, etc, gives me the rest

What? Buying gold futures is the same as owning gold.
If the shit hits the fan, gold is useless for 100+ years.
Then it will be collected for currency, but for 100 years after shit hits the fan gold is too soft to be used as a blade, no one needs conductors, or thin sheets of metal, or jewelry... you get it,

if you believe in the Happening then why not short the S&P
>you like shiny shit
>>1107321
I don't believe in it.
But if you do, why own gold? Less room for ammo and beef jerky and water filter tablets.
Gold is money- there needs to be banks and an economy before money has use
Otherwise, barter system, 10 bullets for your chicken, etc
>>1107321
Also, think your own idea through before you type it.
That's dumb.
If the happening happens, then all the money you made shorting S&P is worthless, if it doesn't, you lose 10% a year forever.

>implying Keith won't want a nice ring for his wife so that she'll have something beautiful in an irradiated post apocalyptic wasteland.
>implying the fact that gold is valuable isn't so ingrained in the human pschy that it won't retain value even with no practical use.
>implying wasteland pimps won't want bling

Going to take 100 years (minimum) before the gold has use.
Once people start building warehouses trading Guns, Canned Food, Grains, etc, gold with be collected and then minted into coins and used as currency.
That's 100 years away- if you're thinking 100 years in the future, you won't see next week.

h-hey know what else can be bartered for bullets and chicken? money from shorting the s&p. and if the happening then you don't even have to cover your short, just skip town
>>1107329
People have always traded pointless shiny shit for other goods. Just look at wampum in early Native American cultures.
>>1107446
it worked out so well for their civilization

You don't have a clue about what shorting means... You sell S&P500 shares short. Get cash from the sale, use cash to buy gold. Wait for happening. Never repay shorted shares.
