    Feeble attempts to distract from the demise of DB

    I'm sorry but things are just getting worse and worse for the too big to fail bank

    If our current monetary systems become worthless, there will be massive civil unrest. Why would silver automatically become the new default currency? How are you going to transport and store it safely? Who would be able to tell fake from real?


    I actually have a sneaking admiration for hardcore survivalists like those who live in Idaho bunkers storing sensible stuff like food and fuel, and making sure they have valuable skills like hunting, woodwork, mechanics etc. What would they want with your shiny silver in a post-digital apocalypse?

    I personally don't think things will get that bad,

    I believe we are in for hard times when DB finally collapses officially, maybe they have already collapsed unofficial like a zombie bank

    What will happen? I don't pretend to know, but I choose real silver as a protection from possible GFC 2.0

    A safe way to transition through to the other side where other paper or digital investments could get wiped out when the DB collapse reverberates around the financial world.

    I'm not expecting mad max appologise but I could se a repeat of the Great Depression when DB contagion spreads, and my silver will be very safe when others are once again killing themselves when they realise all their investments have been wiped out

    Does silver work on zombies?

    What about 50 trillion toxic vampires?

    Ha your childish attempts to distract will continue to show you up.

    I’m very sorry but DB is serious trouble and you can bury your head in the sand and come up with all kinds of childish nonsense you want,

    But DB can not get out of this mess.

    You were proved wrong when you tried to deny the 50 trillion number, you will be proved wrong when DB continues to collapse

    Come to think of it zombies are pretty slow-moving - at least, the ones in that documentary Cockneys Versus Zombies were.

    So if AG buys tins of baked beans and silver, he can probably repel the zombies by throwing the tins of beans at their heads until their heads fall off. The silver takes care of the werewolves, and as for the Cybermen, well, let's not be silly here. I know the Cybercheerleaders reckon 50 trillion Cybermen could turn up at any time but let's have a mature debate.

    Do fat people have much more than 50 trillion cells in their bodies?
    And skinny ones much less?

    Discuss.

    Outside every slim attractive lady there are 50 trillion fat men trying to get in.

    Getting desperate now.

    Rats leaving the ship, and they have to put a fall guy in before the big collapse official, what poor shmuck would agree to take the fall for the largest derivative holding bank on planet Earth?

    Is this silver thin enough to wear as a tinfoil hat?

    If so it would multi-task usefully no? Wear it on your head and use it to repel the werewolves?
