    • The walking dead choose a Hershey candy bar over 10 oz of silver worth $150




    More brain dead zombies refuse to spend $25 on a 1 oz gold coin worth $1,500

    • Yeah, i've seen some of this before.  Hilarious and sad.  I need to move where this guy films so I can go out at lunch everyday and potentially buy his gold for $20.  One coin would make it worth the move.

    • I was in my mid-20s when someone first gave me some silver ounces. The concept of gold/silver bouillon was foreign to me at that point and I had no idea the coins were anything more than interesting trinkets. What he gave me was worth at least $50 at the time it was given, but I had no clue.

    I am very familiar with the street corner and pass it at least once a month. Mark does not do this experiment anymore. But there are some good places to eat nearby.....

    • I wonder if he ever got a dinner date from his shows?  He certainly tried.  Were those videos made in California?

    How about the h0Ɩ0cαųst bar and grill?  Have you tried the zyclon B barbecue sauce?  Mark did a video on it.

    • How would someone know the gold was real?  If some random stranger came up to me on the street and offered to sell me an ounce of "gold" for cheap I would assume he was a con artist and would walk away.  I am naturally suspicious, if a deal sounds too good to be true it usually is.

    • And if Venezuela is any indicator, that silver or gold could become useless very quickly.

    They were right next to a coin or Jєωelry shop, and the man (Mark Dice), who was offering the gold, asked, at least some of them, if they wanted to confirm with the shop that the gold was real. They declined.

    It has imploded.  Chaos, starvation, roving bandits.  Check the internet, you'll find plenty of info.  It's been a long slide ever since Uncle Hugo took the reins, but Maduro actually accelerated the destruction of a once fine country.  Tragic.

    That was funny. Believe me, if you hang around the pier where he did that video, you would find the video all the more plausible.

    They also had MASSIVE crude oil reserves, which Hugo Chavez used to fund sweeping nationalization. This actually worked for about 5 years. Then the price of crude oil tanked and here we are. That's my point.

    • I know Venezuela had all kinds of chaos, but you said that gold/silver became useless.  Please elaborate on that aspect.
