• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Imagine when this happens and gold becomes 200k (made up number) per ounce? All those Indians who hoard gold, wear it in their costumes and jewelry become insta targets.
Well, to be precise... if/when gold becomes 'worth' 200K that will mean the dollar is worthless.

An ounce of gold has always been an 'ounce' of gold. That doesn't mean the dollar is still a 'dollar'.

If you buried a $20 bill and a 1 oz $20 gold piece in 1933 and dug them up today you would still have a $20 bill and 1 oz of gold. That fact that 1 oz of gold is now worth $4100 doesn't mean it's more valuable. It means the dollar won't bye shit!

But I think you know that.
