When global governments refuse to act responsibly toward their currency, the people will create their own currency. Welcome gold.

As an investor, you know that any kind of investment opportunity has its risks, and investing in Stocks or Precious Metals is highly speculative. All of the content I post is for informational purposes only.

    Typically misleading headline.

    "Threatens depletion of Austrian Mint" :rotfl:

    The headline should read, "Place that sells Gold coins to mugs, sells lots and makes huge profits"

    I've never heard of Austrian Mint. I rather like peppermint and spearmint though.

    Possibly. I would imagine, for historical integrity chocolate would be involved in an Austrian mint.
