The US could easily solve its financials woes. Simply default on our debt, make imports illegal. Round up 30 million or so illegals and deport them (shoot anyone who resists). Outlaw all taxes and set up a quillotine on the white house lawn. When the last member of the federal government is gone….problem solved.
It’s not as if no one has ever counterfeited gold coins before, and this guy comes off as a shade less than credible. I wouldn’t have bought the coin from on the him either, and I know what the price of gold is and have owned Canadian Maple Leaf gold coins before.
The responses are priceless, because this video shows full well that “gold and silver coins” are not and no longer will be acceptable forms of ‘money’ (i.e. tender for a financial transaction). It’s a conditioned response to be sure, but none the less something is only worth what you can get someone to exchange for it. In this case, for 99%+ of the populace, an ounce of gold isn’t worth what $50 (i.e. monopoly money) is.
The mere fact that your selling it out in a public place would put off most people and their first reaction would be to question it’s authenticity. 99 pct of the time people wouldn’t believe you’re selling the real thing and most folks don’t have the skills or gadgets to gauge if it’s genuine or not.
I dunno. For $50 I might risk buying a gold coin from someone on the street but I’d probably ask to see his ID so I could take down his name and address in case it turned out to be fake. But yeah, first reaction would be, “It must be fake.”
Put it on ebay for $50 and it’ll sell in an instant.
its funny how mostly everyone commenting this video says morons, idiot, or stupid. but come one would you risk buying that when hes on the street selling it?
That’s a nice point you made there, but it would have been twice as powerful had you told these people what it was worth after they turned you down, then refused to sell it to them.
It’s not like you were puttng on a great sales pitch. I understand because you didn’t really want to sell it. This really doesn’t prove much other than you wasting time.
People are sick and tired of being scammed these days. With the amount of fraud going on in the world, I think it’s correct for people to reject anything they are not sure of. The story would be very different if these people were sure it was 100% gold but then, you would still get the idiot who doesn’t know what gold is worth!
yeah you dont wanna risk losing a whole 50 bucks because im sure he masterly doctored the coin to look and feel exactly like a solid gold Canadian mapleleaf !! Wouldn’t want to get scammed!! It shows ON THE COIN 1oz .999 gold ya it must be fake.. people are so fucking stupid.. Keep your paper money losers and enjoy losing everything in the near future!!
hahahahaha I have a credit card, what absolute fucking FOOLS? Are you kidding me?
of course! thats what blows me away all you have to do is look at the damn thing and handle it for a sec. I mean how damn DUMB do you have to be!
If an armored truck was in an accident and 1000 gold coins spelled out on the highway, then you would see an entirely different attitude.
Yep, and if a guy with sunglasses and buff muscles accidently spoils 1000 gold coins i wouldn’t touch any of them at all. It’s all in the context.
You’re fucking stupid. Can’t wait til’ we drop our bombs on your house and fry you.

NOBODY would buy it! They’re gonna kick themselves later.
The main-stream-media says Gold is in a bubble… Yeah… right…

hahahaha
For $50 it might be worth the risk. I’d be worried that it was fake too though if some dude walked up to me and asked me to buy it.
That’s a nice point you made there, but it would have been twice as powerful had you told these people what it was worth after they turned you down, then refused to sell it to them.
id pull out a 50 and run
