    If this is the case why have all the 'cash 4 gold' adverts disappeared?

    They havent disappeared at all. I still see all over the place ads saying

    Cash for Gold!

    After the masses all start buying and its on the front page every day, then all these companies will be saying look gold has gone from this price to this price look at the gains you can make. Then they will start selling and the ads will say

    Gold for your cash.

    But the price will be over $10,000 oz then.


    Silver is a different story, its a lot more rare than gold. Also its used up in industry as well as being a form of money. Gold isnt, its just a form of money.

    If the world keeps using up more silver than is mined ever year at this rate, by 2020 silver will become the first element on the periodic table to become extinct.

    Who said you where? I was mearly pointing out you lied and are happy that the price had gone up.

    Or had you forgot you said you where not happy about it. :)

    Gold and silver are going up about 19% every year, Yes I am happy about this. Because I am saving 10% of my income in physical silver bullion.

    How did I lie?

    I am happy that I am investing the best way. But I am unhappy the way governments and central bankers are abusing their respective currencies around the world. If the abuse (printing huge amounts of paper currencies) continues then the currency crisis the Euro has will spread a lot further.

    So why do we pull more silver out of the ground than gold and what metal do we find on memory modules and low loss connections.

    Either you believe everything someone tells you or you are desperate for silver to do well.

    Why do you and silver bull only post on the same days at the same time?

    PS Silver is not rare than gold have a look at extraction rates, it's value sort of tells you it is not rare than gold.

    Interesting he has not logged much since you joined.

    MrEnglish's last log on was the 06/06/10. You joined on the 1st

    Must have made a big impact on you to heavily invest in 5 days. :)

    Busted!

    If these gold and silver bulls are so bullish, why do they feel the need to create multiple accounts in some vainglorious attempt to whip up more gullible MSErs into a frenzy to buy the stuff?
