Thanks for your replies, it's really interesting to know your understanding, and understand if all questions asked you can't find an answer for 👍

Nobody on here actually understands anything, there's just an infinite number of chimpanzees on an infinite number of computers. 🙂

@LawrenceChard I'd like to tap into your thoughts on this, with you having a relatively long, say, relationship with the metal?

Any thoughts would be welcome 😊

Don't let my wife hear about any of my other relationships, especially the longer ones. 🙂

Most women i know care more about paper than silver or gold. Unless you're giving it to them to wear. The ones that do know the difference are usually keepers.

After me and my wife will go, our children will sell/keep her jewellery and my coins. All the other stuff we have bought in a long life will go to the charity shop or bin.

Only precious metals are lasting forever, doesn't matter if are recycled sometimes.

Gold is sun, silver is moon.

Speaking to one of my chimpanzees the other week.... I mean one of my friends!

Hairy friend says what does gold... a metal, do?  Why does it go up in value? It's only a metal!

So guys, what do I say to the chimpanzee (i mean computer analyst)?

how about the gold as a conductor arguement. i cant speak for how they are nowadays, but most earlier computers used a lot of gold for circuitry...

I know that gold is being significantly reduced in technology but efficiency is increased significantly.

By upto 10 x.

Gold stripped out of tech.

SILVER is the best conductor,  followed by Copper. Gold in 3rd place is used in terminals etc for its non corrosive properties.

The Treasure of the Sierra Madre has this to say about gold...

Why is gold so precious? Because we're told it is. And that's good enough for me

This video is about gold, which I posted before, but it's funny to watch it again! 😁
