Treasure Hunting for Gold at the Farmers Market with Goldmatters

With a name like Goldmatters, even a Sunday trip to the Farmers Market becomes a search for gold!

The Farmers Market only accepts worthless fiat currency, so we first had to make a stop to withdraw some. I knew right away this was a poor decision as we got a taste of #ICE9 right away.

Those of you have read “The New Case for Gold” by Jim Rickards know what I am talking about:

ICE9 :

Even the second ATM was anxious to get rid of the fiat:

This made the search for gold at the farmers market even more imperative:

Plenty of beautiful fresh fruit:

I started to at least look for things that were found underground, in hopes of digging out some gold:

Found some misfit apples, but not Golden Delicious

There were these “Meal in a jar” that I thought were super cool

But no gold:

Lesson learned: There is no gold at the Farmers Market.

The closest I got was here:

It was time to leave the Farmers Market, pockets not filled with gold. But a beacon in the distance gave me hope. If you squint you can see the Target sign.

This post is a gem of sarcasms.

  • the author takes a dig at fiat
  • then even the atm machine takes a dig at fiat
  • to top it all off the seller is selling his produce and telling the people about it's cosmetic deficiency.

Read the whole post grinning like an idiot.

Ha ha! I WROTE it grinning like an idiot :)

ICE9 where I was too! It took the restaurant 20 minutes before they could finally process his card- a possible scary precursor. Luckily I was prepared and had some gold in my pocket :)

ITS HAPPENING

Cosmetcally challenged, gotta love the marketing on that sign. Looks like fun, one day damers markets will only accept gold and silver, just be patient...

Can’t wait for that day! Thanks for stopping by Ray!

Yo GM, what was the # of the Steem Round (2017) i sent you back in Nov?

Copy that Mofo! His lil’ bro is getting ordered tonight!

👊😎

OUTSTANDING!

We had an ICE9 moment here in Australia a few weeks back:

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-03-22/anz-banking-fault-fixed-after-leaving-customers-in-limbo/9576376

This comes approximately 5 weeks after the government passed new 'crisis management' powers for the country's banking regulator APRA so it makes me wonder if somebody accidentally deployed the protocol limiting ATM withdrawals to $200.00.

Who knows really what they're up to...

Haha..cosmetically challenged apples...I bet they taste just fine though!

I love farmers markets @goldmatters, maybe you could set up a Menē stand there. Organic 24K pure gold and $5.00 just for signing up to take a look!

GREAT IDEA! Dug fresh out of the ground for YOU!

Lay out a few 24K Gold Menē "samples" and let the people size up their 42% Not Gold rings, first hand.

Let’s do it

I totally agree with this...

...The Farmers Market only accepts worthless fiat currency...

All fiat are damn worthless!

Love the pictures.

Do have a good day!

@eurogee of @euronation community

Thank you!! Thanks for reading

I started to at least look for things that were found underground, in hopes of digging out some gold:

Good research from you sir, is it possible to detect gold by the means of eating fruit digging from the underground sir?
I always learn from your post sir what an amazing research. @goldmatters great kudos to you...

Everything is an adventure with you. You will find gold anywhere. You mustn't forget the golden moments with family and friends .You have gold every day.

Here in Canada I don't know if it is happening. I never heard about problems with ATMs...

Let me know if you hear anything :)
