From Investment Post Cards from Cape Town:
"The greater the world ocean of fiat paper, the higher gold goes. You see, gold is the secret, unstated world standard of money. Gold can't be devalued or multiplied out of thin air. So as the various currencies of the world decline in relation to each other, gold stands alone. It can't be cheapened or devalued or bankrupted. While the currencies of the world decline in purchasing power in relation to each other, they all decline in purchasing power against gold. In other words, as time passes, it requires more of each currency to purchase one ounce of gold."
"The way the world is going, 'gold will be the last man standing' Gold will be wanted because unlike everything else, gold can not go bankrupt. Gold has no debt against it, gold is not the product of some nation's central bank. Gold is pure intrinsic wealth. It needs no nation to guarantee it. Gold is outside the paper system."
