That Day will come as a trap on all the world

[professor]

Hi WRR, Welcome to AF.
Try to not be too annoyed, it's not good for U.

[Anomalocaris]

Good thought Rhythm.
My 2 cents- the scam has been in operation here officially since 1913.
A hundred and one years is a long time to get acclimated to a government sponsored program.
There are more people than bankers.
The price of gold went from 20 dollars / oz to well over a grand. (Thank you FED)
Paper money monetary inflation is theft.
But it is hard to steal everything.

And here I was, thinking the inflation of gold value has something to do with the fact that the world economy has grown far faster than the rate at which new gold is being mined, and the fact that modern industry has actually found real use for gold.

If I were to prepare for the apocalypse, I would much rather purchase some fertile farm-lands rather than useless metals.

No...no -real estate is off the table Magi, so sayeth the Proff. He seems to think that taxing agencies will be busily "taking" it while they fend off the zamby hordes. Besides, he sunk his money into gold rather than seeds...so it's not like class 3 or 4 soil would be of any use to him - let alone some really choice property. He's getting raptured anyway...so...meh.

[Cyberman]

Just a little segue (not segway; that's something else).

Prof, you seem very certain that you're going to be 'raptured'. I won't comment on the zombi, as I haven't the faintest idea what he's trying to say. What I want to know is, what makes you think - if you do - that we here are not going to get 'raptured' as well? Not to mention your own family?

It's been said elsewhere that every person is deserving of punishment because we've all fallen short of perfection etc. That would include you, too. So what makes you so special that you expect to be beamed out at the last second while we will not?

Saved by Grace through faith and washed clean through jesus ransom sacrifice I would imagine...

[Exian]

Prof, you have to set aside a little paper money to donate to AF when you're wrong. I just had a vision of you trying to cram a gold coin into your computer on the 26th.

Also, I'm not claiming I have done nothing wrong. I'm claiming my wrong doings are a little more tangible than some abstract sin I committed upon by birth (although, I did piss an arc of urine into my grandmas cereal during a diaper change, I've since apologized)

What did innocent being did your grandmother demand you to kill before she forgave you? Did you have to kill her son or just one of the family pets?

That's why he's buying so much of it. After all is said and done and the Earth is a scorched shitheap, prof's neighbors are going to rue the day they mocked him for hoarding gold. The price of printed circuit boards is going to go through the roof and he'll be the first multi-billionaire of the post-apocalyptic world.
