Priced in Silver, Gold is Actually Down (and other nonsense)

First look at this stupidity from somewhere on the web, doesn’t matter where it came from:

Not to belabor the point of how tiresome this comparative nonsense is, but last I checked, the nursery school I send my kids to doesn’t require payment in silver.  The guy who details my car isn’t looking to be compensated in palladium.  Don’t bother ranting and raving about fiat currencies and Zimbabwe in my comments section below, we all know the deal and you aren’t the first to drop the prophecy on us.

And besides, priced in silver, gold is down.  Silver is up 35.9% year-to-date vs gold’s 22.5%.

See how stupid that sounds?  Smarten up.
