Congratulations! You have the best luck! You went to the grocery to get a Tootsie Roll Pop. While leaving, you find a magic penny on the sidewalk! You decide to pick this penny up! If you don’t save them, how can you earn them? (No wait. That’s not right!) The Penny Princess appears before you! You have won a million dollars! Now, you have to choose ONE method of payment offered. Each choice is worth exactly the same- One Million (US Dollars or it’s foriegn equivalency) Which option do you choose and WHY?
Here are your choices to pick amongst:
•Silver Coins
•Gemstones
•Gold Bars

Gold is the most liquid. I can turn it into fiat quickly.
I’ll go the gold bars. The price of gold seems to have declined a bit over the last two years, but prior to that it rose over a longer period of time. So, I’ll go with gold.
Gold Pressed Latinum
Because it is the accepted interstellar currency-
Gemstones because they are purdy!
Gold bars, so if there is a holocost or civil war I can bury them and they will last forever. haha
Silver coins because coins are cool.
Is the penny a wheat penny cause I’d want to keep that, too, for my collection.
Silver coins so I can trade them for inexpensive items.
@Coloma After you bury your gold bars we can hang my gemstones on fishing line in the window and watch them glisten and have a toast to the end of the world!
@Cruiser Haha..sounds good, or maybe we should bury your gems too and make a treasure map to confound any future survivors. Our treasure could become legendary.
Aye @Coloma X will mark the spot and let the survivors dig to their wits end while our treasures are safely guarded in the nest of a Goose! Ha ha!
