>Clients denied gold at major banks as shortage intensifies  - Egon von Greyerz - Matterhorn AM
Well i can tell everyone this.
It takes less than a minute to sell or buy your gold.
The buyer will accept immediately.
The seller will try to delay delivery on a contractual arrangement for 3 days.

That was my recent experience.

As a side note.
If I buy a house for $1m and 22kg of gold for $1m Aud, what is the better investment? Both are solid assets. Both go up and down etc in price.
The house needs maintenance, insurance, rate payments but can earn you rent and you have to pay tax on that. It takes 3 months to sell a house and get paid.
The gold is easily stored and costs next to zero maintenance. You can borrow against it and earn interest also. You can sell it in less than a minute.
You can Barter with gold. You can sell fractions of your gold. You cannot do either with a house.
