I want one.

I can't stop looking at his hair :v:

Wait...so the UK has 310 tons and is worth 300,000,000,000 but the US has 8133 tons which would be around $7,800,000,000,000 ....why are we in debt?

Stop shaking old man :<

I doubt they could just instantly sell that many tons of gold in one go and just kiss debts goodbye.

take all that to [B][I]CASH4GOLD[/I][/B] you'd still only get something like £20 for it.

[QUOTE=rrunyan;38789461]All chemists look like that. Eventually.[/QUOTE] His hair is more precious than the gold he's around.

that man looks incredibly interesting to talk to and I'm not sure why

He looks like a great chemistrist. He seems very excited about his work. Also, nice tie.

[QUOTE=ultra_bright;38789079]Because you guys spent more than 8 trillion dollars on your military and stuff.[/QUOTE] We're not on the gold standard.

Old gold

Heh I've seen this guy around campus a couple of times; I go to Nottingham.

This man looks like science

[QUOTE=Carnotite;38790741]If you sell that much gold, it's pretty much instantly devalued by the presence of such vast quantities flooding the market.[/QUOTE] it's strange that you only have a certain amount of buying power as long as you aren't actually buying with it. it's like if as soon as you tried to spend a dollar it suddenly turned into 50 cents.

Martyn Poliakoff being fucking awesome as usual.

[QUOTE=EskillV2;38789019]I can't stop looking at his hair :v:[/QUOTE] It was probably flat before he walked into that vault

[QUOTE=Jetpack Bear;38794100]New Payday: The Heist Heist confirmed Be right back, messaging Bain[/QUOTE] Oh hell no; no one wants to stand around for 10 hours fighting waves of police while drills get you through all the doors.

[QUOTE=Jetpack Bear;38794100]New Payday: The Heist Heist confirmed Be right back, messaging Bain[/QUOTE] I feel like gold would be the most inconvenient thing to steal because of how heavy it is.

[QUOTE=postmanX3;38794376]I feel like gold would be the most inconvenient thing to steal because of how heavy it is.[/QUOTE] Maybe you could steal all the gold you want, but at the cost of your speed? Kinda like Dead Money.
