[QUOTE=Map in a box;31221183]Once everyone sells the gold, who will be laughing then? I don't see why people are so hype over gold or diamonds, Yes they are rare, but they have minimal actual "uses", so I don't see why they are like this over a thousand dollars for an OUNCE.[/QUOTE]
Are you nuts? Gold is an excellent conductor and Diamonds are one of the hardest carbon materials in existence.
Oh and not to mention it's market for both materials are very lavish for certain jewelry companies like DeBeers (sp?).

I'm talking about how they are used by the common people

So having them as 'vanity' is not considered a use?

Nope.
I have a few gold sovereigns in my house. They're platinum and gold mix, so I imagine they'd be worth a bit right now.

You took that too seriously.

Either that or it's very very bad. I'm no economist.

It was a lame joke, well at least i think you meant it to be a joke.
Garry must now change the price of gold member. Each letter in their name is 1/2 an ounce.

It is very good because your shares are increasing in value, meaning that if you were to sell them, you'd make a large profit. You could either sell your gold now and make a good profit, or wait it out and see if you can sell it for ever more at a later point. There is also a chance that the price of gold will go quite a bit down within a month and you just lost your chance to make a good profit.
I own some gold, this pleases me

Wait until you really need them / time passes majorly / to hand down to your kids.
You will thank yourself very much.

Shame I have a short name, maybe I could still make money if I sell my gold status.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;31222752]this thread has me thinking, there should be a scifi-western game on an asteroid set in the 3040s where you're a space cowboy and you have to kill other space cowboys to steal the space gold[/QUOTE]
