Problems with this graph, it doesn't tell the entire story, here's why; Starts out in 1930 during the great depression when stock certificates weren't worth the paper they were printed on. Gold has never been worth zero, and at the same time the government controlled and regulated its value. Took 20 years for the stock market to show signs of recovery after '30. Meanwhile gold prices were kept artificially low until 1975. While your stock value.may be going up in price, that same dollar is going down in value. Pretty sure I mentioned monetizing gold...thats drawing interest on your shiny stash. Not sure I'd want to put gold in some institutes vault...I like it close by where I can oogle it. If you're around when the next depression hits, those stock certificates will make great tp but when the plumber comes to unplug your drain, have fat stacks of cash handy...or cross his palms with silver, gold.

When my grandpa was mining it in 1970 it was $35 dollars an ounce. He put some away...in 1980 it hit $800 per ounce. A 2700% increase. Never say never.

'More' being the optimal word. I have a friend lives on his wife's income as a Target clerk, but he fixes small engines on the side. He dredges every 2 days locally, then comes home 2 days, recovers an ounce per month but doesn't sell it, it's his retirement. Using past gold performance charts, in 20 years he'll have 240 ounces put aside worth $1.730,000 He can probably live on the interest the gold brings in a gold monetization scheme.

If Social Distancing Had a Face

Meet you in Tempe

Tons of turkeys in that unit, you shouldn't have a problem tagging out. Lots of camping right off the hiway or call and look into cabins at Clint's Well.

No. I watched your hero upchuck Schumer again and again... Adds $600 to states weekly max ui. You don't think chucky would get it wrong, do ya?

Just before the elections, the Democrats will offer up a bill to keep you on unemployment

A gentle reminder to include gold in your savings portfolio... Historical Gold Price Performance in USD Period Change ($) Change % 30 Days -41.40 -2.49% 6 Months +114.40 +7.61% 1 Year +296.60 +22.45% 5 Years +422.90 +35.39% Since 2000 +1,330.20 +462.20%

Current stimulus bill would add $600 per week to maximum weekly payment (AZ unemployment max is $240 per week before taxes) and add 4 months of benefits. Read, digest, discuss...

And CNN

Amazing as this might sound, I'm a little confused by the AZGFD elk left over tags info. Are we sending it a check for the application fee and a check for a tag? Or just one check for $148?

Sorry for your loss.

We've been trading eggs for TP here in the hood. The poor hens and ducks can't poop them eggs out fast enough. Welcome to 2020, TP the new buttcoin.

Stanley I've said it before, I would have been honored to have known your dad.

Step one, you should try and connect with me so I can properly teach you how to pan. Using a pan is fundamental for sampling, It's not difficult but if you don't know how or what you're looking for you'll quickly become discouraged. I highly recommend watching Jeff Williams videos, he makes geology fun and that ain't easy. Watch them then watch them again and again. A good modern gold detector starts around $650 for the Fischer Gold Bugs or drop $850 on a simpler but more sensitive Minelab Gold Monster. There's a long, long learning curve for each and you'll mostly dig lead up for a long time. I'd get more familiar with geology and mining laws first. To find gold you have to be on gold and know what signs to look for. You should be familiar with quartz, cobble, bedrock and contact zones. Look for hematite because gold wears an iron hat. Last week I found a hematite deposit on the claim that's just begging to be processed. But it's too wet for dry washing and it will take a Herculean effort to get a hi banker, water and equipment up the hill where it's located. I carried less than 4 gallons of dirt down the hill to pan out at home last Tuesday, and here's the result. I think it's safe to say I'm on the gold.

Got a hankerin for a bowl of MT Graham red now....

I haven't seen this on the news, got the article off Drudge. But it would appear an early symptom of the infection is the loss of taste and smell. https://m.economictimes.com/news/international/world-news/lost-sense-of-smell-may-be-peculiar-clue-to-coronavirus-infection/articleshow/74767666.cms

A questionnaire outside the gates. Pretty sure it's a product of Phoenix's mommy mayor.

We just returned from a scrap yard in west Phoenix, it was nearly a ghost town out there. We were screened out front for Covid before they'd let us enter and off load.

Meet u half way. Lincoln. Nebraska.

If I had teets like dat I'd never leave the house, virus or no virus.

So Democrats, is there some tax we can pay to get rid of this Coronavirus and move on or does that sort of thing only work with climate change?
