This sounds very fishy to me: “Chris Weber, the editor of the excellent Weber Global Opportunities Report, makes the calculation in the most recent issue of his newsletter. He adds up the value of all the paper money in the world... and comes up with $100 trillion. Then he divides this by the total amount of "above ground" gold in existence – 5 billion ounces – and finds a fair value of gold at $20,000 an ounce. If Chris Weber's calculations are correct, the gold price would need to rise about 22 times to match the rise in the quantity of paper money in the system.” So, the question is, why aren’t all the other precious metals factored in???? This must be pure baloney. Gold is at about $850 an ounce right now (today). PLEASE. Even the girl at left knows better. Gold is not edible, remember?
