Gold bug / silver bug / numismatic / metals thread
CleverNickname replied to 52-80's topic in Business and Markets
It sucks that fractional gold buillon imhas such crazy premium. I would have way more in gold if 1/10 and 1/4 had small vigs. I suppose from a high wealth perspective that doesnt make much sense. But trading 250 eagles for 3 coins feels weird. -

Gold bug / silver bug / numismatic / metals thread
RDCanecutter replied to 52-80's topic in Business and Markets
It goes back to when there were bimetallic currencies, and governments would establish official rates for the value of silver vs gold. Under the Spanish Empire [I think] it was about 16 to one, and we (the US) inherited the basics of that system except we split our Peso-- the Dollar-- into hundredths instead of eighths & fractions of eighths. Not long after, I believe silver was allowed to float, and float it did-- or sank. The ratio rose on the market, gold was worth lots more than 16 to one. It keeps changing, recently went over 100 to 1, has since come down again. Why does it matter? It might not, but some feel there is a "proper" ratio that it will trend back to. I don't agree. What does happen, though, is that when the ratio gets much higher or lower than a perceived norm, people will exchange the "overvalued" metal for the lesser, and then vice-versa if it hits the other extreme. Every sale, of course, involves a transaction fee, so a perpetual motion machine, it's not. You could pick any two commodities and do this. But gold and silver are magic. -
Some real choices out there - not sure how much any of them played out in such a short stage other than mental advantages. Solid rear wheel? Aero helmet? Aero bars? TT bike? Or Tadej’s road bike, no clips, no paint, no tape, death black. Jonas far and above the best rider out there not named Tadej. Though Tadej beating Remco at the first (flat) checkpoint…until we saw that Remco looked terrible.

WSJ claimed the Trump–Epstein article was an “exclusive.” But what if they actually showed it to people? https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flsd.693830/gov.uscourts.flsd.693830.1.0.pdf No word on fake citations yet!!

I think it should be a major plot point that she does not wear the suit under her clothes. Then she gets drunk and forgets. Whoops! Naked. Also, she should have a filthy lesbian relationship experiment with Lois, and whoever Tits McGee was working in the Daily Planet. I should really write these movies.

I said “I don’t think this is true…” I didn’t reject the data. I was, “for the sake of argument,” trying to come up with a fact pattern that could make the stats correct but lead to a less obvious conclusion in certain circumstances. Of course PdM is correct. -

I will have to take Eliquis for the rest of my life. My Onc said it is the cancer itself that likely induced the clots. Did ultrasounds of my legs and nothing there. Neurologist just said better to take the Eliquis and deal with it. Lots of fun cutting yourself shaving and having it bleed for 30 minutes.
