6800 bucks is ridiculous that's some bullshit we don't get no money from that spill and gold isn't a bad idea but right now its kinda high..if you would have bought it a year ago you would have made some money..if you put 5k into gold 5 years ago..you would have made stupid money, I'm talkin that 5k would be worth like 20k+ which doesn't seem a lot over 5 years but think, if you only put that money into a savings account that 5k might be worth 6k now so the gold would have been a genius investment...if we only knew right
Its funny you mention gold cause today I went and sold (2) broken 14k gold chains that I've had since I was a kid..I'm talkin they haven't even been touched since I moved into this house 15 years ago and truthfully didn't even remember them until I opened up a box and saw the little mini bank..besides the gold chains, it had 3 old #9 charms (2gold and one silver) which was my number for every sport I did growing up, it also had some 1920s silver certificate $1,$5,$10 dollar bills, and some other old coins
Well I decided since the chains where broke I would just sell them cause I really needed some extra xmas money but I couldn't muster up the balls to sell my numbers even though they where gold too but I ended up getting $320 for the 2 chains and was in damn near shock..
I knew gold prices where high but I don't know nothing about them I thought I would get 100 maybe 150 for the chains but the dude said 300 I was like for real?? So I left the jewelry store and went to the pawn shop where the dude promotes on all his signs "top doller paid, will beat any price".. he offered me 320off the bat and I was like sold! And he went on about how all he does is buy gold cause he makes dental crowns and he will beat the prices of everyone cause he takes out the middle man and melts the gold and makes crowns himself.. and I told him that's why I said sold so fast cause I took it to someone else before this and he offered me 300..he goes on "see I told you ill beat anyones prices"..it was kinda funny
But yeah $320 in broken gold chains that have been sittin there in a box for 15years untouched..thge thing is if. I would have sold it a year or two ago I would of had only made like 150-200 tops...so since gold is at an alltime high, if you people got old and broken gold jewelry now would be.a good time to sell them off instead of just lettin them sit there..
Got myself extra cash for the last of my presents that I need to buy and was able to buy a jab for myself lol
Yes its a long rant but I'm high and thought it was a cool story, for me atleast
