"Pet Rocks" Are Booming In Brazil
It appears there is one 'currency' worth holding on to when a nation's fiat fraud is exposed...
Real "wealth" preservation.

Pinch of coon shit paper, or a $20 USD gold piece ? Hmmm - tough decision, but I will take the gold piece for $20.00 fiat, Alex !
Hammers are holding value also. How much is rope going for?
Tar and feathers: "Sold out last week."
Pitchforks: "Can't keep 'em in stock."
let's see how the brazil central bank reacts to ths
Sr and Sra brazil "Turn em all in"
And how many hammers/how much rope, does it take to store your wealth?
Hammers and rope might be sufficient to store your wealth, however, most of us require something more efficient/condensed.
Hammers and ropes can achieve ends other than wealth storage, but which are nonetheless still very valuable ...
Re~Hypothecate that Bitchez.
It is a sad day indeed when the paper currency of dogshit republic is sold for a pet rock that has withstood the depredations of millenia. What are Brazilians thinking?
Just wait til cash is outlawed...what else besides gold would do the job?
Get yours now, avaoid the rush.
Silver, Bitcoin, local currencies, marketable skills, beans, bullets, and band-aids.
It's pretty dumb to think they will outlaw cash, but not outlaw REAL money like gold and silver.
It's pretty dumb to think thier "laws" mean jack shit anymore.
I want more gold.
Don't we all.....
I want to have sex with Scarlett Johansson ....
I just did. My arm is very tired.
What?
You 4-fingered her for 6 hours?
You have my sympathies.
See above comment.....
Sully - you dumb ass. You can have both the easy way.
If you are sitting on a stack of gold, Scarlett will drop her laundry, and suck you off like she is removing chrome from the back bumper of a 57 Chevy.
If you are sitting on a pile of fiat currency, she won't even flip a match on to you to watch you burn.
Well, my guess is that Scarlett
will have sold her body, mind, and soul,
to one of the NWO prime movers.
And you will be a long, long place back in line,
to have your chance at the brass ring.
Sorry.
A Scarlett made of gold would be better.
A condom wont protect you from Herpes.
Signs...
I find the case of Venezuela to be morbidly fascinating. Venezuela under the expert socialist leadership of Comrade Nicolas Maduro is about to go into actual starvation. Yet, I believe no government buildings are burning. He still seems to have the undying support of the peasants which may be why.
It seems that many of these countries still tolerate the rampant corruption and empty shelves promises of the Left. Despite abject and repeated failures they go back to the same models.
Gold, is one of the canaries and a proper reaction.
Ashole, gold is quote in US$. This chart only shows that dolar got stronger.
Yeah. Dollar got stronger.
$20.00 an ounce prior to 1935, $35.00 an ounce until the Seventies, now just short of $1200.00 an ounce today.
Bovine Excrement there, Bovespa. You no broker, but if you are, you gonna be even broker in the future with that there rocket science you be preaching.
Gold is quoted in all currencies.
All currencies are quoted in Gold.
You're pathetic, I hope that Brazilians are not like you
In a technical sense, Fiats rarely get stronger. That is, increase in purchasing power. When the finacial media says one currency is rising against another, they are only giving you the Delta or difference. Both Fiats are still sinking (losing purchasing power), Just one of the compared currencies is heading for the cliff at a slightly less rate than the other. All FIAT CURRENCIES HIT THE CLIFF, They exist to be destroyed, Its in the design.
Asshole, the dollar hasn't gotten stronger over the last 8 years. your shit fiat is collapsing. If you really are a bovespa broker you better start running and hiding.
I can't afford gold, would anyone be willing to donate any ?
i wish i had those beautiful solid gold earrings back. i purchased them in 1968 for myself as an 18 year old, just knew they were wonderful & $35 for the pair. i sold them years & years ago & could just kick myself right now !! silly lady, don't you know that you NEVER SELL GOLD for PAPER MONEY! gold. beautiful yellow shiney gold.
now tell me again how everything is wonderful?
If the timing is right, I should be able to pay off my weekend place with a gold Eagle.
Everyone outside the USA is grabbing hard assets as their currencies plunge and will drop further I presume. Those who aren't will be punked hard by devaluation. Canada and Australia already down over 30%. Those who bought gold are sitting pretty.
Pet rock lol.
The guy that originally said that really is a fucking idiot.
Having a real pet or pet rock? I know what to choose. Pet rock doesn't get sick, doesn't bark, doesn't eat or shit, they live much longer than me.
I'm in Brazil at the moment and I can tell you people still view the dollar as the hard currency here. The real price of gold has gone up a lot but that is more a reflection of the weakness of the local currency. Don't get me wrong I think gold is a far superior asset to hold than paper FRNs but I can tell you that as someone who grew up in Brazil (even though I have not lived here for a long time) Brazilians, unfortunately, still view the dollar as King. That might change though as one of the taxi drivers I spoke to told me he buys gold whenever he can.
How many ounces of gold for a nail gun?
Gold is my favorite pet. Silver is second.
Silver, Platinum, Gold, Paladium, copper in that order.
Yellow "PET ROCKS" look better than the lighter shaded "PET ROCKS" & "PET PAPER" just doesn't cut it. "Scissors" anyone? _JOHNLGALT
