Food, water, whatever you wish to exchange it for, even conventional paper 'money' if you like. BTW, gold does not rust.

You can't eat federal reserve notes, pounds, ruppees, ringgits, or any other paper money either. You can however always trade for gold and its been that way for thousands of years. Well before the crooked and crazy system we use today which is proving beyond any sane doubt every single thing gold bugs have said about it.

You twat, how do you think food etc gets on your plate? Via money. Gold is real money, hence people are shifting away from fancy paper to the real thing, which was the point of the vid, geddit?

The Islamic dinar has already been suggested by the previous PM of Malaysia. People should have listened to him then, instead Asia has massive reserves of green paper instead. Watch what happens when they start dumping it...
