It's the same old same old isn't it with prices.  Started buying about 7 years ago. Still keeping way ahead of inflation.  That's better than my rubbish pension pot!

Surely these kind of shenanigans by Royal Mint should be illegal?

Don't know about anyone else, but I'm seeing a top 5 market cap as a stable success.

I can confidently say I've spent a lot more on gold than on Apple products, but nowhere as much as I've spent on computer equipment in the past 20 years.  That's a disturbingly large sum of money.

Computer equipment can become obsolete very quickly. It is by design. I think the term is planned obsolescence. This is how the industry get consumers to keep buying / upgrading. Today's smartphones are like yesterday's desktop / laptop computers.

My first PC was a Gateway Pentium 75. It cost me £1,000 desktop box only back in 1995 or 1996. I upgraded RAM and HDD to run Windows 98 and maybe ME. After that it wasn't good enough or fast enough for daily use and was discarded. 

Image how much £1,000 I would have bought in gold or silver at that time.

It's good that they don't become obsolete anytime soon ! 😎

Fortunately PCs aren't as bad as they were in the 1990s when a 3 year old PC was effectively obsolete.  Nowadays you can expect to get the better part of 10 years from a PC as the CPUs aren't getting faster anywhere near as quickly as they were back then.

Smartphones are mostly consumer tat - getting a smart phone to last more than a few years is pretty optimistic.  OTOH you can save a fair bit by shopping around and buying new old stock - one of the few things Ebay is still good for.

I don't know about going to the moon but I'd be happy if it went to bloody 25 quid an ounce so I can sell it.
