Yeah, I know. I have what many would consider an absurd amount of rice and beans and salt so it makes sense to store something that won’t go bad. Gold never spoils. Never.
Ever since we found gold we have valued it. I don’t understand the position of, “Oh, no one will value it!” We love the shit and it’s a store of value. How much value is dependent.

If you don’t hold it, you don’t own it.
Investing in gold someone else holds is silly. Having a few ounces stashed away is just illiquid asset that should be a hedge against inflation.

Exactly. It’s just a pre-built, nothing more. Really wouldn’t be surprised if someone tries to run MacOS on the thing
I’ve built cars and motorcycles. It’s far easier to just buy a car or motorcycle.
Man… The Chinese language is supposed to encompass phrases within single characters, but this sentence is obviously longer in Chinese than it is in English.
