someone explain how bartering for gold is any different than buying things with money...? especially when i can take the money i just got and buy gold with it.

i trade my used car for your oz of gold.

or

i sell you a used car for $1200, then buy an ounce of gold

wtf is the difference.

A rational person has a large amount of their savings invested. 

As long as your money is invested in SOMETHING, it's value should rise with inflation as well.

...the whole experience is (and is as) a profound piece of knowledge.  It is an indellible experience; it is forever known.  I have known myself in a way I doubt I would have ever occurred except as it did.

Smith, P.  Bull. Menninger Clinic (1959) 23:20-27; p. 27.

...most subjects find the experience valuable, some find it frightening, and many say that is it uniquely lovely.
