Want to be a 1%er in the Silver Economy?

[OneBiteAtATime]

Current (Above Ground) World Population: approx 7.1 billion people.
Estimated Remaining Above Ground Silver: (Always disputed, but) 1.04 billion ounces.

Historically, the top 1% of the world's population owns 34% of the worlds wealth.
1.04 billion oz*.34= 353.6 million oz owned by new 1%
1% of worlds population = 71 million people.
353.6 million oz/71 million people = 5 oz per

To be a 1%er in the new silver economy? Own 5 oz. Feel rich?

(I know this is rediculous and short-sighted, but it's still fun.)

Now let's pretend somehow America owns all the world's silver
Current (Above Ground) American Population: 316 million people.
1% of us population. 3.16 million
353.6 million oz/3.16 million people = 111.89 0z

To be a 1% if America owned all above ground silver? Own 111.89 oz. Still Attainable, all. STACK ON.

Wow, that's still strikingly low.

Beunaderos is a 0.001%'er

That's surprising. It's going to be hard acting like a common Joe, now that I'm officially a 1%er, but I will try to keep it real.

indeed, when i considered Bro. Obaat's OP, first thing that came to mind were these words:

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me,
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday

then i heard that familiar opening synth riff....and these words:

And I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again

Change it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fall that's all
But the world looks just the same

man! how can a guy say it better than that?!.....so i'll looked around to see if i could find what Pete (Townshend) was trying to say, and i found this, (this is good stuff)

"Townshend stated in 2006 that: "It is not precisely a song that decries revolution – it suggests that we will indeed fight in the streets – but that revolution, like all action, can have results we cannot predict. Don't expect to see what you expect to see. Expect nothing and you might gain everything. The song was meant to let politicians and revolutionaries alike know that what lay in the centre of my life was not for sale, and could not be co-opted into any obvious cause."

"NOT FOR SALE"..........love it!!......and gang, here's the kicker, the cherry on the cake, you're gonna love this, ya'll gonna be giggling....its always fun when hypocrites get told, "NOT FOR SALE".

"Director Michael Moore wanted to play the song["Won't Get Fooled Again"] over the closing credits of Fahrenheit 9/11, but Townshend refused to allow him to do so, saying "[o]nce I had an idea what the film was about, I was 90% certain my song was not right for them."

so, Ray, bro. OBAAT, crew members, this is for us:

Ok. No more posts about PM's (as if I owned any) when the time comes. I'm sure I can find something else to kill some time!

Thanks for the perspective, Neil! It was great dinner music.

111.89 ounces? I wish I could afford to buy 1 ounce.

[knibloe]

How does this play out with gold?

[Saabman]

I wonder too, what (who?) was a 1% in 1932?
