RE: Gold is money nothing else, silver is more!

in #gold8 years ago

gold is gold, silver is trash; sorry.
In the 1980's an American family tried to corner the world Silver supply, they pushed Silver to almost $50 an ounce.
The reality, Silver just sucks; it really does. Silver is a very reactive metal so shiny Silver is always tarnishing and on its way to being filthy black.
You hear of people finding old gold bullion ships sunken underwater; treasure ships, these are always GOLD because Silver DISSOLVES in Sea Water. Using Silver as vital electrical connectors is great and cheap since Silver works well till it oxidizes to far.
That is why gold is always used for long term maintenance free electronics such as satellites.
Gold is used in jewelry, trading and simply because it stays gorgeous forever...
And if Silver ever becomes useful such in essential in modern car motors, so if anyone truly starts to take Silver seriously then the country of India will start finding it useful to start digging up the huge massive Silver reserves that they have never found a need for earlier.
Silver just sucks it is useless, it is ugly, it is distracting and it has absolutely no potential to grow into an even basically useful or desirable metal; it is the ugly child of the commodities market...
