It depends what kind of gold your in the market for. Last night I was
drinking shots of german liquer with flakes of real gold in it, the
kind you might buy in tiny vials as geology specimins. The drink was
good, and I mixed it with a strawberry daqeri & draft beer. I was
feeling great by the time I walked home from the party. On e-bay I
bought a troy pound of gold flakes for $1000. You just need a way to
melt it down and make things with it. A friend of mine I think knows
something about blacksmithing, so my project is going to be building a
solid gold antenna to pick up ham-radio, wifi, and everything else.
Making an antenna isn't so hard really, if you can work with metal.
Then we just sell it for $5,000 to someone who wants to pick up
signals from the other side of the moon. It will get even better
reception once you get it superconducting with electrical coolant.
