Queen Victoria 1000 bond

Bond buyers are now looking for Potosi and Queen Victoria bonds. If you are an interested broker - someone who knows someone who has the bond - forget about making any deals. Once you put the main parties in touch with each other, you will be cut out of the deal. Buyers (and sellers) don't like paying more than one person on each side. Do not believe anything that anyone tells you about getting part of a healthy commission. You will NEVER be paid. There are a hundred excuses being thrown out that will justify the buyer and seller cutting you out. They will also just flat out lie to you. Do not waste your time on this. The business is great but the honest players are non-existent - there are NO honest buyers or sellers out there. Sorry. 

Price of Gold

Everyone knows that when the dollar is weak, gold is strong. It all has to do with the confidence investors have in the value of the dollar. If your dollars are getting devalued, obviously you will need more dollars tomorrow to buy the same items you bought today. So, the more gold you have, and the higher the price for gold goes, the greater number of dollars you will have tomorrow if you decide to sell your gold for dollars. That way, inflation will not hurt you as much. Be that as it may, I would rather have ten tons of wheat and five tons of lentils at the ready.
