do you actually think gold has some kind of intrinsic value or something
rofl
I can't believe you are this dumb. Its like saying oil, a limited resource has no value. Of course gold has value. Its very rare and is used in every CPU in the world, not to mention almost every sophisticated electronic device in the world think cell phones, gps systems, calculators, etc etc. It has extremely beneficial properties. Same with silver btw.
In today's society it has intrinsic value.
no it doesn't

Actually there is. Its very light/small and easy to exchange. It lasts forever and is a limited resource.

the same can be said of a lot of things, you haven't established why gold is special

The amount of gold in those devices is incredibly minuscule. Large quantities of gold have almost NO industry value and gold are easily substituted in electronics.
Comparing the industry value of oil to gold is a fucking joke.

So it's just like platinum/silver/nickel/copper/zinc/aluminum/tin, and not even the rarest or most useful out of this list but is still the most valuable? I don't see your argument.

I wasn't sure if you were trolling or stupid, but I just think you are poor.
