What is a store a value ? Gold, Oro, Hazav!
Yes it's still left hand week - why a week? Just waiting to see if more time consuming content is worth it, or if someone will reach into my blog-pocket and extract a hundred just hours before it's due.
I give away a hundred bucks for a decent chrome-add-on. That's so not the point. It's just rude to reach into a guy's pocket.
Actions speak louder than words
I was told to sell my Steem. So I needed to find another store of value. There I was standing at the desk of Claudio, my favorite gold man, when in walked my pre-arranged bitcoin buyer. I told him that I don't sell large quantities of bitcoins any longer. It's stressful waiting for $35,000 to be confirmed on a stranger's phone standing in a gold dealer's office.
He was given two options. Bring dollars and I will sell you Steem? Or bring dollars and I will sell you Dash. He chose Dash.
The dollars flopped on the desk, I was handed gold. I hit send and shook hands with the buyer. The Dash blockchain is almost as fast as Steem's. I am pushing Dash and I refuse to take dollars.
They were out of 1kg bars, so I am rubber banding them.
Or fork lift them in a cave :)
with my left hand...
Thanks for taking time to read and resteem! 👍

As I always say when comparing physical wealth and digital wealth..."If you can hold it in your hand, it is real"
In @htooms reality it his "left hand"
Can't imagine what it would be if he was using "right hand" too!
:D
That's what I called " True Money"! Congrats, dude!
i love gold, my quandry is that in the instance that you had to use your gold as currency the price of gold would have gone through the roof, if the metals market in this country werent being artifically manipulated to keep prices down gold would be through the roof, so if a reset happens and you go to the store to get some groceries is the grocer gonna have the ability to make change for an ounce of gold that is now valued at 10,000 dollars. so then the question of silver comes into play but again silver at 17.00 would immediately be revalued in that instance at 300? who knows silver always follow gold either up or down. which one would be actually more usable in that situation.
Gold is always a good option to store your money! It's been the original way to store one's fortune for thousands of years.
When I saw this post, I immediately had to think of the new movie "Gold" with Matthew Mcconaughey!
That almost look like a giant amount of gold for a second and then I spotted B713
I love your use of scale and photography!
Thank you for posting @htooms.
Sounds like a plan....so glad to hear you are wise to the dollar.
All the best. Cheers.
In some small way you contributed to my dazzling returns on my margin trade on gold this week. :-)
I hate it when that happens!!
You cannot beat a cast gold ingot!
Backing up the truck I see! Beep Beep!
Right now a silver ingot is actually better, as it is at a steep discount relative to gold. Buy low, sell high!
Nice
