    Default German gold being called home

    Tin foil hat time again. What do y'all think about the article below? Does Germany know something that we aren't being told?

    http://finance.yahoo.com/news/german...--finance.html


    Of course, on the other hand as one of the commenters said (the only reason to read yahoo news) "Who would trust a country 17 trillion in debt to hold onto their money?" HAHAHA.


    Discuss.

    Fantastic. This should turn out fun! What happens when they realize the gold that we've supposedly been storing for them, isn't readily available for some reason?

    If I had any gold, I wouldn't want someone else holding it. Many countries are trying to increase their gold reserves because the world economy is so uncertain. It only makes sense to have those reserves at home, IMO.

    I wonder if its just that they don't trust the socialists that run France and the US not to steal it.

    I kinda wonder sometimes if it matters what gun control laws they pass in the next month or two as I sometimes wonder if the US government will exist long enough to enforce them.

    I think it's related to the euro and the EU. Historically, the nations that have done this haven't done so well afterwards, however. Too little too late? I'm almost certain they don't trust us (who would?), and they sure don't trust France!! China's been doing some very interesting things with gold as well. Lots of rumors have been floating around that various nations have been trading with gold, instead of the commonly accepted US Dollar. Some say that's why certain nations have recently had 'problems, and leadership changes', because they wanted to use alternative currencies for doing business!!

    I wouldn't put anything past our admin., nor the central banks of the world.
