help,

"What should I do?" Easy. Make it into goldware.

Take 200 ounces or so to your local goldsmith. Have him reformulate it to 12k or 14k from the 24k you bought. 12k will stand up to nicks and scratches better; 14k will show the wear a bit, but will look prettier. Have the smith make a setting in each so you can decide which fineness suits you.

You should be able get six to eight settings (knife, fork, soup spoon, teaspoon, a marrow spoon if you like osso buco).

You should get about a 97-98 percent yield from the original gold. The loss - from filing, polishing, etc. - traditionally belongs to the smith. It's his "bonus."

You'll probably be the only one on your block to have solid goldware, instead of the commonplace silverware.

Enjoy.

Throw it away. It's on it's way to becoming worthless. True believers in fiat money and government will lynch you if they find you in posession of any. Distrust of the system is the ultimate insult. Plus, it must be made worthless so that the mines can be closed down and the precious environment locked up away from the people.

Owner of gold = raper of the environment.

Totalitarian society coming soon to a venue near you.

After all gold and mines out of weak, public hands, the value will be allowed to run free and the same wrong people will get rich all over again.

You can't win because you arn't one of them.

What do you need help for? We've been told that if the market price of gold increases, this shows that gold was good to have. If the market price is steady or declines, this is irrelevant since gold is a hedge against the failure of fake money anyway so it's still good to have. So you win no matter what happens.

Meanwhile, gold is really neat stuff. It's pretty, it's heavy and it just feels good.

Paint it in colours to match your decor like my Uncle does and use it as door stoppers. He's being doing it for a decade and it works really well!
