Everyone believes FIFA runs the World Cup, however, those in the know understand it's Adam Young behind the scenes.....who else has that kind of influence?

The Golden Gloves, Foot and Ball awards were NOT made of gold, but rather solid copper!

So the real question is Adam Youngs prudent and thrifty with small amounts of money, but wasteful and profligate with large amounts?? :shock:

BEST PENNY PINCHER

In an armored-car facility on the industrial prairie that is Swan Island, there is a windowless concrete room. Harsh fluorescent light bears down on visitors. The clang of metal on metal drowns out any chance of conversation. Spend enough time in here, and your skin grows coated with grime. Adam Youngs calls these 12,000 square feet “my little heaven.”


ADAM YOUNG
Image courtesty Adam Young
Youngs—a 26-year-old with a baby face, closely cropped blond hair, a high-school diploma and an accent that belies his central Iowa upbringing—is a copper speculator. He prefers to call himself an entrepreneur, and as the founder of the Portland Mint, he’s indeed a big fish in a niche market. Youngs buys up pennies in bulk, which he runs through sorting machines—they’re responsible for most of that clatter and clang—that separate the coins into those made before 1982 and those made after. Unlike modern pennies, which are mostly zinc, pre-1982 coins are 95 percent copper—which means they’re worth about double their face value.

Youngs then sells these pre-1982 pennies to his investors—he says he has about 10,000—who range from survivalist types to folks concerned about stock-market volatility to one guy who lives on a $16 million yacht. These investors buy 1,000 pennies for $186, or you can spring for a ton (yes, 2,000 pounds, in a sturdy polyester duffel bag) for $4,959.

But there’s a catch with copper investment: It’s illegal to melt active currency. That means these penny hoarders are banking on the day the U.S. makes the penny obsolete. Canada stopped distributing pennies last year, and Youngs hopes America will eventually wise up too. Until then, he’ll keep sorting these cents—on any given day, the face value of the pennies at the Portland Mint is about $300,000—and packing them into those 2,000-pound bags. “You can easily fit 2,000 pounds under your bed,” Youngs says.

And for those who doubt the wisdom of storing your savings where you sleep, remember this: 2,000 pounds of pennies are also pretty hard to steal. REBECCA JACOBSON.

I think they meant 10,000 pennies for $186... I didn't do the math on the ton for $4959...

Between 1985 and 1996 Adam Youngs had a secret deal with Yasuo Hamanaka aka Mr. Copper who at the time was touted as controlling of 5% of the world copper market. The real story was Adam just let him think that! Like all who try to outsmart Adam Youngs, they eventually lose. :shifty: Yasuo Hamanaka lost over $2.5 Billion for his employer, Sumitomo Corp. in Japan. Hamanaka was sentenced to eight years in prison in 1998 and was released in July 2005, one year early. :shock:

There is speculation that he was released as a favor to Youngs and allowed to sort pennies as an employee under an assumed name while being paid minimum wage with no benefits. :shh:

If you doubt what I am saying Google it! ;) :roll:

Yes, but an Adam CTU is a ton of pennies. He doesn't have time to measure out anything less.

In other news..... It has now been confirmed that The Portland Mint had an important visitor two weeks ago...

There was a total media blackout, but sources close to Realcent.org say the meeting lasted several hours between the two world leaders.

His personality is so magnetic that he is unable to carry credit cards.
Even his enemy’s list him as their emergency contact number
He never say’s something taste like chicken, not even chicken
People hang on his every word, even the prepositions
He could disarm you with his looks or his hands, either way
He can speak French in Russian
His charm is so contagious that vaccines have been created for it
Year ago he build a city out of blocks, today more than 600,000 people live and work there
He is the only man to ever ace a Rorschach test
Every time he goes for a swim, dolphins appear
Alien abductors have ask him to probe them
If he would give you directions you would never get lost and arrive five minute early
His legend proceeds him the way lighting proceeds thunder

He is: Adam Youngs; The most interesting man on RealCent!
