    Theres 1600 tons of gold in the ocean if you got the energy to extract it

    Interesting bit of history, the gold was probably stolen. I think they could have recovered or confirmed its lake location by now

    This youtube vid seems to indicate most of it was stolen off the train before it got to the lake

    watch?v=iOAqyGUcYLo


    I dont get how the train ended up in the MIDDILE of that lake. They wouldnt build train tracks over ice hat melts in the summer would they?

    These gold bug conspiracy theory threads are so much fun. The really are the proverbial flame (for the moths).
    In case you hadn't already worked it out - the entire global financial system is predicated on the assumption that you're an idiot:cool:

    Dont let them get to you.

    There is a lot of envious precious metal bears still out there.

    They feel very strongly about the gains they are missing out on.

    Do not waste your time on them. Gold and silver are in a long term bull market and if you get in now you will be very happy.



    Back on point, it seems they havent been able to confirm the 1600T of gold is there. It cant be that difficult its a lake not the middle of the ocean. As has been said before 400M is not that deep, that Japanese sub can go down 4000M and bring things back up.
