RE: What's in YOUR Wallet? There's GOLD in mine!

That gold money thing looks awesome! I wonder if the gold is in the print or the paper or maybe threads in the paper. I guess it is worth about $3 now that gold is $3000 per ounce. But in an actual barter situation it is worth what the person you're bartering with thinks it is worth I guess.

I do think credit cards and other digital transactions are made with less thought than if we actually had to see how much cash you actually have on hand. We think we'll be able to pay off the card and we'll worry about that another day. That can lead to debt trouble and I've been there, so now I pay the full balance when the credit card bill arrives. And I get the benefit of the cash back. Nice to know the Amazon card gives 5% cash back, I did not know that!

The "Tenth Amendment Center" is a new concept to me. I vaguely remember nullification from school days but it's good to revisit in times like these. Have you written more anywhere on this subject, about what makes you a supporter of this? I'd like to educate myself on the matter. I followed the link to the DVD and read some reviews. And I read the wikipedia article on nullification. But it would be so much nicer to read something from your point of view which I value.

Thanks for this nice post which touched on several interesting topics!
