>when you realise that even at their maximum value of almost 400k caps, there's no reason to ever spend the gold bars in Dead Money unless you're trying to collect every GRA unique
You can collect them all very easily. Just have the Bloody Mess perk. Do a Pip Boy assisted head shot, get the kill, walk around the metal step towards the way out, check the bits of body gore that made it past the forcefield before it went up. Collect bars, overencumbered walk to the elevator, get out before the bang. Works like a charm.

Its illegal to hoarde gold in England
https://www.bullionbypost.co.uk/index/gold/is-it-illegal-to-own-gold/
>In the UK, investors have always been free to buy and sell physical precious metals, and it is legal to own gold, whether it's in the form of coins or bars. Many have diversified their portfolios, and benefited from the total control and ownership that this safe haven investment brings.
You dont understand the difference between investing in gold and physically hording it
>“It may be recalled that CBDT, in its press release dated 01 December, 2016, had clarified that there is no limit on holding of gold israeliteellery or ornaments by anybody provided he is able to explain the source of such investment. However, in case any search is conducted for the taxpayer, the tax officials can confiscate the gold and/or israeliteellery if it is found that the investment is not in line with the income level of the assessee as reported in his past tax returns,”
The government can and will seize your gold
Don't get fricking audited, then. And bury excess gold in your backyard. Get creative.
>if it is found that the investment is not in line with the income level of the assessee as reported in his past tax returns
>mcdonald employee with reported income of 7k/year is found with roughly 3 million dollars in gold bars in his apartment
>can't produce any kind of document on how he acquired them, be it inheritance or otherwise
>what the hell, they can confiscate them???
yes?
do you even read your own posts?
it's not illegal to hoard, it's illegal to have a stupid amount of gold (or in fact, anything very valuable) without being able to explain how you got it
That one clearly states that gold that is not in line with your income may be confiscated if you are searched. So for example if a israeliteellery shop has just been robbed and you are searched, and they find 100 conspicuous generic 1oz .999 gold bars just hanging around somewhere in your home, and you don't have the income to back up such a stack.
Of course, you are right that the govt can simply change the rules whenever they want and confiscate all gold. But at that point it would surely be a shame if you had just lost your gold in a tragic boating accident a year or two ago, no?
It won't work, they won't get your gold if you hide it well but this kind of obvious lie will never work, they'll put you in a camp to serve as an exemple
>OI GUVNUH. I LOST ME GOLD IN A BOATIN ACCIDENT, I DID.

Gold has no value outside autists who think that it does. And don't give me that "but it has uses!" crap, it has no use when it's being used as an 'investment'. It just sits there being worthless.
>Gold has no value outside autists who think that it does
Guess that's why G7 is scrambling to block the import of vatnik gold.
there's a lot of autists
Gold has a bunch of traits to it that makes it perfect as a store of value. That's why it's a keystone to economies. It also very fricking much has a mystical power to it that you only truly get when you own some yourself.

but given that scenario i doubt trade is going to be your main concern.
you buy gold so your wealth outlasts currencies and its value transfers to whatever the next system offers.
humans will always want gold.
didn't the aztecs or whatever give tons of gold to the spaniards because they didn't see any value in it?
It had less value for them compared to the spaniards beause they had a shit ton of it but they still used it a lot and it had great value to them.
I think it was kinda sacred because of some gold or sun god they had. Spaniards literally just took it to feed the Catholic israelite Church.
when the apocalypse happens, there won't be anything. you'll either be dead or killing someone else and eating them.

>he thinks touching gold through plastic is giving him mystical powers
What a fricking moron. Bet you don't eat your gold either.
>Those tiny ass knock off brand bars they sell to morons like you
If you can't buy at least an oz don't even bother. You're never getting that premium back.
I'm sure whatever scam situation the gold business is in in your 3rd world shithole is perfectly applicable to where I live.
I work as a bullion dealer and he's right. Buy the largest size cast bars (yours are minted) you can afford or else you're basically immediately losing money. When you sell your bars back to a dealer, their buyback prices are based on weight only, so it doesn't matter how pretty it is or what brand it has stamped on it.
My dealer buys sealed bullion back for 97% of spot. See my last post.
I guarantee that's the spread across the board for buying back gold. Unless your dealer has a higher spread on cast bars for some reason? In which case you are absolutely getting scammed...
Don't know, don't care. I ran the numbers on the premiums I pay, and it works for me.
>I guarantee that's the spread across the board for buying back gold.
It is, Royal Mint was offering me minus 4% under spot. You can get it closer by going to a local israeliteellers and bartering as I managed to get my minus 1% under spot.

>/pmg/ leaking into Ganker
Watsup stacker-san.
i'm almost considering going for some precious metals to counteract the incoming inflation boom
how would you go about buying and selling it at a market price without getting scammed?
as far as i know it's either my bank or pawn shops but one is a israelite and the other is probably a straight-up scam
First, where are you from?
italy
Oh, that's a new one for me. You're better off coming over to /pmg/ on Ganker and asking anons there. Hopefully someone from Italy can help you out, plus there's useful info in the header there. I will give you some general advice though:
1. If it sounds too good to be true it most likely it is.
2. Ganker is full of scammers and opportunists, don't get fooled into FOMO (fear of missing out) or FUD (fear uncertainty despair).
3. I'm from the UK and for people here gold is the much better investment than silver. I can get gold with a 3% premium while silver it's about 20% premium.
4. Coins are better than bullion bars, coin minting such as proofs can add a premium on top when you plan to sell
5. Gold should be VAT free in Italy (as it's part of the EU).
6. Don't bother with Ebay, you're most likely to get scammed. buy from a reputable dealer (Italy has probably got something like the Italian Mint).
7. Don't expect to get rich, this is about putting your labour into a commodity and retaining its wealth, unlike fiat which can depreciate to next to nothing (see image for example).
>7. Don't expect to get rich, this is about putting your labour into a commodity and retaining its wealth
yeah, that's my objective, i want to retain buying power and since i'm sitting on a decent pile of cash inflation is going to frick me over if i don't do something
>Coins are better than bullion bars
really? would have guessed the opposite
mind also clarifying some lingo?
i'm assuming premium means x% over current market price (i'm not sure how to consult the current market price, just googling gold price gives me 55€/g roughly)
i've seen a couple of people mentioning spot, not sure what that is
anything about gold quality/purity i should look out for?
i'm assuming 99.99% purity is like the golden (heh) standard but i'll take advice on this too
Yeah. Premium is anything over the market trading price known as spot. You can find live prices on various sites. I'm currently using this.
https://www.bullionvault.com/chart-popup.do?metal=gold&timeScale=1w
24K (that's karat, not carat as the latter is to do with gems, the former is the term solely for gold) is the purest gold you can get. It is also incredibly soft which is why you will find that most circulated precious metal coins are an alloy (two metals mixed together). An example of this are British sovereigns. These are 22K gold (around 91.6% gold) with copper as the alloy, hence its reddish look. These are very popular here in the UK and are a favourite for stackers to hedge against inflation. They are also legal tender in the UK meaning we don't have to pay capital gains tax when selling them.
I've been thinking about grabbing some every once in awhile. If anything it might be fun to collect gold. I'm not a poorgay but I'm not incredibly wealthy either it doesn't look to hard to get into.
Anything below 5g is not worth getting due to insane premiums. It's a nice thing to have, makes it feel like you actually have some usable money in this world of fiat and inflation.
Understandable, I intend to store it and not sell. I just like gold and it seems a little more interesting than buying plastic tickets or powertools.
any gold that's openly sold to the public masses is most likely fake
this looks beyond tacky and kind of worthless
Im sure Spaniards built entire armadas to transport the shit because its worthless.
I'm sure literally every civilization that has risen and fallen coveted it because its worthless.
Im sure it wont hold any value in the future and in whatever civilizations come after ours.
What is the actual utility of gold outside of electronic instruments and it looks nice?
It doesn't erode.
Combine that with "it looks nice" and you have a perfect medium for value store.
Also you can liquefy it in acid then reconstitute that liquid into a solid and it retains its proeperties from before melting.
So it's like money but with actual uses and can't be artificially inflated?
Sounds really handy. It's like it could be very useful as a currency. Huh.
It is money anon. What we use is currency, which is in fact not money but credit.
Only electronics have a use for gold and silver. It's crazy that for thousands of years it was used as a currency but served almost no purpose. (Aside silverware eating utensils)
Being a store of value is a purpose. A very important one at that.
>Aside silverware eating utensils
just realised that people actually used money to make utensils and other stuff. imagine if you went to a store and they sold you Dollar bill forks or something
The thing is that silver has a natural anti bacterial element so I think that's why it was a good metal for something you put in your mouth. Most other food utensils were probably just wood.
>Gold has no value outside autists who think that it does
same with paper money lol
Actually, it's only the case with paper money. Gold has intrinsic value.
Vintage Story lets you stack your ingots. I haven't found gold yet but I've got a nice pile of copper bars and tin bars.

>create charcoal by burning logs in a covered hole
>use charcoal to melt copper in the crucible
>pour molten copper into mold and let it cool
>combine pick axe head and a stick
You now have a pickaxe.

Gold is commodity money and internationally recognized around the world for thousands of years. It is effectively money that exists outside the control of banks, hence why nearly all states have reserves of it.

In 1836 a sewer worker accidentally discovered an old drain that ran under the Bank of England’s gold vault. He requested a meeting with the upper management of the bank, and popped out of the floor to greet them on the hour they specified.
Honest man but goddamn that would've killed me inside to let a chance of a lifetime go like that.
Gold bars are engraved so you're not going to be able to pawn them off even if you stole them, unless it's a shady deal with another country that will melt the engravings off or something.
You could just melt them down yourself and sell it as gold scrap.
How are you supposed to get a furnace capable of melting gold?
you can buy a kiln for a couple hundred bucks. bout a thousand if you wanted to melt down an entire bar at once
All you need is a propane tank and a cast iron pan
You can do that with a blow torch.
anon, there's videos of people privately melting metals and instructions on how to build your own kilns all over youtube, it's not some mystical forbitten art, every hobby smith has a youtube account now

>My Lady, put it back, there's cameras for God sake!
>frick you, now carry themmpjrse two bars for me dear
So, why do they not just smelt most of this shit into one giant block? Like, wouldn't that make it way harder (i.e. impossible) to steal? Keep a few bars if you ever need em.
thats not how gold is traded
It's already heavy as shit. Each bar is nearly 30 pounds, and people working with it have to wear steel-toed boots to prevent dropped ones from causing injury.
too much work for little gain, gold is already hard to steal by simple merit of being fricking heavy
That would make it easier to steal from it, as people would cut it apart easily enough, checking a giant block for any chips or chunks missing would be time consuming compared to being able to scan shelves with perfect ordered rows of ingots on
Also a huge chunk of gold would be hard to scan inside, which could be some comparatively cheaper non precious metal inside it - people already fill gold bars with metal rods or solid cores to trick people into buying a worthless lump of metal instead of precious gold, imagine how awful it would be if someone did the same with a giant 1m x 1m brick of it

>weighting it
>get bar of tungsten
>coat with gold
>weighs the exact same as pure gold
ggez
that's almost as difficult to get as actual gold
Even though the (bigger) stuff that's commercially available is really overpriced and overall it's difficult to work with (you will never smelt it), it's still several orders of magnitude cheaper by gram than gold.
thats not the point, the argument was of a Apoc and post-Apoc scenario, Tungsten bars aren't a on demand item you can get by visiting your local hardware shop, finding the stuff would be just as hard as finding actual gold
Also, by your own words, you'd never be able to turn it into a gold bar/currency lookalike, making it even more obvious that its counterfeit
We're basically talking about prepping, no? So you could definitely prep fake gold using tungsten now and use it after the apocalypse. And while you can't manipulate tungsten easily, you can manipulate gold. So you don't change the tungsten, and just mold the gold around it somehow.
>So you could definitely prep fake gold using tungsten now and use it after the apocalypse
that would work yes, unless someone gets suspicious and bites it or cuts it in half, but until then you could get away with it easly
how about you go do that anon, and remember to come back to gloat at us while showing off your newfound wealth.

Physical gold is a meme that will barely move even under perfect inflation conditions. Physical gold has to be bought with massive premiums over the spot price, easily Tyrone'd if you're storing it at home and most paper gold is prone to really suspicious market manipulation bullshit.

Mining shit is just entirely too satisfying in that game and I refuse to leave even a scrap left in the wall if I can help it.
I work for a gold exploration company irl. Real-life gold mining/milling is some of the most painstaking bullshit to actually carry out it's absolutely ridiculous.
You can't say shit like that without posting nuggets, anon.
I'm a mining engineer. I design the access roads that go into the open-pit operations that we manage. I've only seen gold "bars" (they're only about 10oz) from a distance and that was at a fire assay facility where they were testing the purity of the bars.
Thank you for your service, I enjoy the product your work provides.
You're welcome and I own about 20 oz of gold also in the form of (2x) 10z bars. They were minted by Valcambi and sold by my bank.
They really need to add some collectables to the game. If you could customize your own office that gets loaded in whenever you join a server and fill it with gold, it would launch the game into soul overdrive
I believe you can collect gold precious stones and metals in the Sims 3
I remember seeing a kickstarter or similar for an RPG all about collecting wealth to pile in your hoard. Didn't look very good though and was almost certainly vapourware.

I love me some shiny metals and sparkly rocks, shame I'm too much of a poorgay to every have to worry about them IRL.

I spent entirely too long piling all the gold bars and israeliteels I could find in my basement in skyrim.

i dont understand the concept of having a lot of gold nowadays. back in history they used it to make their coins and money. now it just sits in a vault
Because it retains its value very well.
its just a rock
It's finite and will always be worth something so long as theres a functional society. If your paper currency shits the bed you'd still be worth something instead of hauling around bricks of trillion dollar zimbabwe notes.
>its finite
so are many other things
I'd rather put my faith in a rock over a piece of paper
you can melt gold.
"paper" is very hard to counterfeit
Does gold suddenly loses its value when melted?
it never had any value to begin with
sounds like a cope and a half, you can burn paper money and lose it, you can melt gold and all you lose is the time you spend waiting for it to cool
No.
It can always be reconstituted.
Neat story about this:
>When Germany invaded Denmark in 1940, de Hevesy dissolved the gold Nobel Prizes of Max von Laue and James Franck in aqua regia to prevent the Nazis from taking them. After the war, he precipitated the gold out of the acid, and the Nobel Society recast Franck and von Laue's awards from the original gold.
You can still trade with it. People still do trade with it, my dad made around 10k doing a 4-5 year investment on it. Not a major return but still. That and its handy to trade and sell in person in certain areas, managed to get a nugget for nice scope for 8 pieces of silver at a gunshow once. The cash price was 400, price in silver was 190, but since all the frickers at those shows have stupid high precious metal markups for some reason, you can usually trade metals for more than you got them for.
Not nugget was a scope
israelite Tycoon
should I take the extra 5k I have in savings for emergencies and buy some physical gold to put in the safe?
Not yet. Wait for the market crash in about a month.
Gold just doesn't feel special if you had to pay for it.

it's shit tho
Is this a stealth /pmg/ thread?
not per se there is a lot of overlap and collection(of wealth) is prevalent in many games
I want to buy more gold and silver because it's so beautiful and I enjoy looking at both coins and bullions.
It's already been mentioned in the thread, but Vintage Story. Gold isn't the only bar you can hoard either, and while it's difficult to find gold, it's not impossible. And when you hit it, sometimes you hit it very hard.

If you want to dig up gold and turn it into gold bars it's great.

are you storing backpacks in backpacks?
Where else would they go? You only have one back.
>walking past the premium player houses seeing all their wealth laid out and talking to your friend over msn saying that you'd decorate your house as a living space instead.
that takes me back man.

I still play ots from time to time but I also miss when global was good.
I'm still mad they turned Battlefield: Bad Company from hijinks and stealing gold to Bad Company 2's minor hijinks but mostly Call of Duty parodies and serious plots
Fallout 76
does this stuff have any value besides being shiny and everyone wanting it because it's shiny?
Banks said so.
Useful in tech, fashion and is a rare resource which some people think didnt even originate from earth and seeded itself billions of years ago from another astral body

hell I'd count the silver bars too.
Are you an Indian grandmother? If not, you don't need gold.

>In 2004, the National Collectors Mint (NCM) released gold-plated replicas of the 1933 double eagle, ostensibly under the authority of the Northern Mariana Islands, a U.S. Commonwealth.
>The NCM advertised and certified the coins as "legal tender of the CNMI", a bogus designation.
Oh boy are you in for a wild ride. Just to give a severely shortened version, in 1933 president homosexual Deleanor Roosevelt gave out an executive order to seize all gold coins and gold certificates to try to curtail "hoarding" during the great depression. These coins, the 1933 double eagle were minted just before the order was signed.
Since the order was signed, the banks had to give them back to the feds and they were melted down. All except for 13 that are known to survive.
Here's the problem: Those 13 were stolen. Not withdrawn legally. And because they belonged to the Federal Reserve and the state, they're stolen federal property and still have that designation. The one pictured is the only privately held one thanks to a lot of drama with some prince or something. The US gave legal clearance to it and it's the only legal 1933 double eagle on the planet.
Because only 1 exists that the government won't rape you for owning, that's also the single most expensive coin on the planet, it last auctioned for 17 million dollars.
If you ever come across a 1933 double eagle (you have better odds of winning the lottery twice over, you won't) shut the hell up about it. Seriously, hide it in the safest place of your house and never take a photo, tell somebody or send it off to get graded. Just stay quiet.
fricking feds
It was also illegal to own Gold (besides israeliteelry) in the US for almost 40 years until in 1972 the ruling was reversed by Richard Nixon when we were taken off of the gold standard. It was also probably the single most broken law to ever take effect in American history, lol. Even more than the prohibition restrictions. Even though they were supposed to all be melted down US gold coins exist in pretty massive abundance. Coin shops and dealer shows have loads of old gold coins (granted, at a high premium) South Africa also made some of the first modern gold bullion coins called "Kruggerands" starting in 1967 that wealthy travelers would buy and smuggle over.
Even in 1933 when people loved the government and were willing to send minors off in wars for them they weren't giving up their gold willingly. If that was attempted now the state would get the biggest "frick off" response since the civil war.
