San Diegans shun chance to get $160 silver bar for $10
4:32p ET Thursday, June 25, 2015
Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Political provocateur Mark Dice today posted an amusing video demonstrating the financial ignorance of pedestrians outside a coin shop in San Diego, California, where he tried without success to sell a 10-ounce silver bar for $10, about $150 less than what the shop presumably would have purchased it for.
Of course Dice probably would not have had any trouble unloading the bar at such a discount in Mumbai, Shanghai, Saigon, or any number of cities on the other side of the world, or maybe not in any country that doesn't presume to issue the world reserve currency -- which may be the bigger conclusion to be drawn here, the carefree ignorance of Americans having not really been news for a few decades now.
Dice's video is 4 1/2 minutes long and can be seen at You Tube here:

Direct Ownership and Storage of Precious Metals
Outside the Banking System in Zurich and Singapore
Goldbroker.com is a precious metals investment company that enables investors to own and store gold directly in their own name (no mutualized ownership) in Zurich and Singapore.
Goldbroker's clients are not exposed to any counterparty risks. They own gold and silver in their own names (the ownership certificate cites the name of the investor and serial number of his bars) and they have storage accounts opened in their own name as well. So Goldbroker.com's storage partner knows the exact identity of each investor. Goldbroker.com doesn't store in the name of its clients; rather, Goldbroker's clients store personally. All investors have direct access to their gold and silver bars.
Goldbroker.com was launched in 2011 so that investors would avoid any counterparty risk when investing in physical gold and silver.
Goldbroker.com is listed among GATA's recommended monetary metals dealers:
