SWARTHOS

I recently was given this thing called a Goldback. I know nothing of gold or precious metals or investing. I don’t even have a retirement plan outside of Social Security and if I’m able I hope to work until I’m 90 years old [God Willing].

As you can see this is a pretty cool looking item I suppose? It’s real gold, it’s thin and it has an interesting design on it. From what I understand these are a form of currency that are only sold in New Hampshire, Utah, Nevada and Wyoming… I think.

While this one has a 1 on it, I think it is worth whatever it’s weight in gold is. So if gold was worth a million dollars for 1/1000th troy ounce [what on earth does that even mean, troy ounce?] Anyway, I think this one is worth 2 dollars. I like it because it is gold, it is unique and it feels really weird in your hands.
