I think its $8 over spot to exchange your dollars for the gram. The 2 main ways to get paid is when your downline exchanges/buys their gold and when someone buys a package. You accrue "units" and when you hit a certain amount of units (through your own buying, downline buying and purchasing...

I’m resurrecting this thread for the simple fact that about a week ago I had this opportunity come my way and one of the first places I searched to see if there was any unbiased info was this forum. And lo and behold, this thread came up. I even PM’d Gunny Freedom who started the thread to see...

Darkship Thieves by Sarah Hoyt.

Anything by Heinlen, some Neal Stephenson stuff. The Dispossessed by Ursula K Guin is about some guy who was raised and lives on a socialist/communist planet but is taken to a libertarian type planet and his world is thrown upside down. Or something like that.

PLEASE NOTE: My novel is for entertainment purposes only. It is sci-fish in nature. If I touch upon social, economic, and political issues in the novel it is for the story's concern. I am not trying to push my ideologies (which happen to be libertarian) on my reader in a heavy handed manner...

Wow, some gems in there...thanks guys. Definitely stealing one of these...

Was going to go name my blog "Corporate Contrarian" or "Cubicle Contrarian" but contrarian may give off the impression that I disagree with the mainstream just for the sake of being, well, contrarian. Blog will consist of life in a cubicle for a large corporation, trying to live the life of a...

Thanks guys. Yeah, this $1000 is purely for playing with. I have precious metals, an emergency fund, food, guns, etc...I just never did any online trading. I am not looking to day trade or to set it and forget it either. Just buy a stock or two and get accustomed to whatever broker I decide.

Thank you, that is one I am considering. What about an online service that allows foreign markets and currencies?
