How much has a bag of otters noses fallen?

Nearly as much as a bag of larks' tongues.

Chickens, stones like the paper we use today have only been used as money for short period of times.

Are you sure? I would say in the last 100,000 years I would say there have been many forms of money that have outlasted gold or silver.

If you are saying FIAT value means nothing you have made noting, if FIAT goes your gold will hold no value but barter value?

I turned mine in to a Tarka dal, it is like a Chicken Madras but Otter.

This thread could be worth reading if someone who disagrees with Dom Frisby can come out with an intelligent counter argument.

If the childish comments and unfunny jokes are the best counter argument, I'd say thats a pretty good indication that Dom has been right all along to be so bullish about gold and silver and so bearish about house prices.

I would say the need to create new user names every few days off sets that view you hold.

Just done a Google and it appears he is the man who does the voiceover for the Sainsbury's adverts. Here's his website where you can hear him tell you about 2 for 1 on sausages:

I remember the OP's article now, it's been on here around a dozen times hasn't it?

I'm not really sure what all the fuss is about. Our monetary system is f*cked and our house prices are high. In times of chaos in a financial system people turn to gold. Hence gold seems to be bubbling away in the same way houses did not too long ago. So therefore when you plot houses on a graph against gold, which is going up and up, houses look like they are falling. Which they are when measured against something going up.

Am I missing something? Other than all the historical store of wealth cultish (not a spelling mistake) nonsence babble you get on here and other parts of the web that's about it isn't it? Gold will fall in price in some point, houses will go up again, shares will rise and fall, houses will fall again, gold will go up again blah blah blah. It's just the way of the world.

These gold and silver nuts were probably all property nuts five years ago. Every investment craze gets obsessives.

I was planning on offering a kilo of goat's cheese for a repossessed studio apartment I saw with a particularly innovative bathroom that doubled up as a kitchen. Do you think I should offer 750g instead then?
