Default Gold breaks $1,900.00/ounce. This is nuts.

I used to make $900/day on average mining my own claims by myself, but it wasn't worth it as the work was much too hard physically. Today, I'd make $2,700/day on average, but not because I would have to work harder, but because the price of gold has tripled.

There is no bottom to the dollar (as we will all discover this Friday) and so there is no top to gold.

If everybody wanted their gold at once it would be just like a bank run. It would'nt
be there....At some point Gold is going to crash.....

IMO..why would you have your gold in the bank?...is that what you were trying to say? my gold is 6' under in the woods in a steel box!...not in a bank vault...

gold will not crash and will hit 2k by the end of the year maybe next month....some are saying 5k is with in reach in 2 years...

You have it backwards. If everybody wanted their gold at once, it would be just like a bank run. It wouldn't be there and gold would go to $50,000.00/ounce, not crash. Wide spread realization of scarcity makes a thing go up in price, not down.

Now can you guess what common metal is more scarce than gold?

Silver.

There is currently less silver above ground than gold. This is because silver is being used up by industry... whereas gold is hoarded. There is only about as much above ground silver right now than there was in 1300 A.D. ... less than all the above ground gold.

Seems odd it is trading at $42/ounce. It won't be there for long!

I don't think there is any danger of that as long as Chairman Obama is in office.

Gold plunged $104 in New York, capping the biggest drop since March 2008, on speculation that financial markets may be stabilizing, eroding the appeal of the precious metal as a haven.
