I believe in Gold when I hold it and when I touch it. Gold certificates are just as good as fiat money. If I were to buy gold, they would need to give me gold bricks.

Me know and I’ll buy you some top quality flip flops.
Yes, I would gladly accept the money. I had some real problems applying for PPP last year but my Dad said I should put pride aside and take what’s being offered. Many many more companies that are way better off are going to milk it for all its worth so I’d be foolish not to recoup some tax money I’ve already paid in like you said. Now that I’m used to the gov tit I want MOAR!
That is how some of these politicians work is setting up the loop holes so that their companies or their family/friends companies can enrich themselves. Us little people have to watch for the opportunities.
Edit: I’m just kinda tweaked that it seems like everybody else is raining in free money while I’m on the outside looking in because of some arbitrary numbers set by some lobbyist or congress group. I maybe made over the threshold but I also paid taxes on that and also have very high expenses. I’d actually prefer nobody got anything and everyone is responsible for themselves.BoostedTeg, Dale thompson, SteveScott and 2 others Thank this. -
Besides, right now I'm investing some of my cash, cash I've acquired by the great rates I got last year, money I've saved through discipline of not overspending in my personal/business life, money received through the "welfare" programs established by the gubmint, into a couple of other side ventures that are paying off for me.
It's cash money being circulated right back into the economy, and in one venture I'm involved in, is providing a much needed service for people on the lower end of the economic scale.Dale thompson and Midwest Trucker Thank this. -

You see...I can be comfortable making a living on 100 000 miles per year on 2 dol per mile while someone else can't.
Of course the more the better so having a clue from others of where the potential is can help a lot.Dale thompson and Midwest Trucker Thank this. -

Anybody thinking of buying gold right now should probably wait a few months. It may skyrocket, or it may drop like a rock depending on what Wall Street does after Biden starts handing out trillions in devalued currency, and if you can't afford the loss, don't make the investment. The last time I bought gold was in late 2002 when the price was around $250 per ounce. My dad talked talked me into buying a lot of the South African Krugerrand coins which are 1 troy ounce each, and just put them in a safe deposit box which is where they're sitting to this day. We bought bags of old Morgan dollars at the same time for almost nothing and they're with the gold. By his reasoning, if we ever get hyper-inflation and the dollar becomes worthless, gold and silver will be something to barter with. I hate to say it, but it's looking more like his prediction was right the longer I'm alive. Dad is pretty disgusted how things in our government are playing out, and he's glad he won't be around too many more years to see our county fall. We seem to be heading in that direction.Truckermania, Midwest Trucker, Dale thompson and 3 others Thank this.
