Well, according to the InterNet (and we know anything and everything on the Internet is true) during the 1880-1914 period the U.S. official gold price was $20.67 per ounce.

& in 1914 a loaf of bread from a bakery was roughly 5 cents.

and the average weekly earnings were $10.92

so $20.67 per ounce was good, being worth almost 2 weeks wages

Anything is possible with all the Paper Selling and now all the big Banksters can get out off their Shorts and go Long and I predict it will head up back up pretty shortly, if not I'll still be buying because IT WILL GO UP. Keep Stacking.
