| | | | Scared to buy $1000 bass b/c Economic Collapse could be 2011
Sign in to disble this ad
First off, let me say, if you understand nothing about true money (silver and gold) and you do not know that the economy has been in downward spiral since 2008, DO NOT POST HERE.
Well, as many of you may, or may not have heard, the world is waking up to banker manipulation of money. And people are starting to realize that there is ABSOLUTELY NO VALUE in paper money. Gold is at its all time high of $1400 per oz. Silver is at its 30 year high of $33 per oz. Basically what this means is our currency (American dollar) and all other currencies are being devalued and soon inflation could set in. We may be looking at $5 loafs of bread and I know FOR CERTAINTY we will definitely see $5 FOR GASOLINE AGAIN in 2011. Wheat prices rose by 60% and clothes are rising by 20%. Many economic forecasters are predicting 2011 will be the MAJOR COLLAPSE.
Well, to get into the title of my post, I want to buy a bass for $1000 dollars, but don't know if it is economically sound to do so. Its the last thing I want. After that, ITS ALL ABOUT SAVING MY MONEY. I currently have $800 dolllars worth of silver or 25 oz of silver to protect myself against inflation. And about $3300 in cash.
Was wondering if anybody had any thoughts about and knows what I'm talking about???
(((( Try to be serious here guys. I already know some of you are going to say, "Oh this guy is crazy or conspiracy theorist" but whatever. If you dont believe what I'm saying, look it up.))))

| | | | the value of having a nice bass is priceless. if you will get 1000$ out of it then do it.
i would spend your money now on things things that you want and can use before your money isnt worth anything any more and inflation goes up.

The tinfoil hat does sound like a good accessory to the purchase though. |

Sorry this is not more "current" or correct with the times. Are you going to play the bass a lot? If the end of the world is coming, sure would be nice to have a sweet bass to play on rather than hating the world. |

Gold and silver will be a joke because you can't eat them or defend yourself with them. Yes the markets and currency are heavily manipulated but the guys with the heaviest weapons are what really backs currency up.
For better or worse, the true reason that the dollar is still the world's reserve currency is because the USA can deploy more military muscle to more places in the world faster and more decisively that anyone else. This is the part that most money theorists don't discuss. Not saying whether this is good or bad for the world but it is the way things are.
AFA buying a bass, none of us know the total of your situation. Are you carrying any debt?. Do you consider debt to be good or bad in the current situation?
Peace,
S

You should buy the bass.
