Bedroll bankrolls Gold Purchase. LOS ANGELES, Calif. Sept. 22, 2009 -- The ongoing economic slide that’s taken its toll on banks and other investment firms has likely forced many citizens to consider stuffing their precious dollars into mattresses to keep them safe from faltering financial institutions. Or so the urban legend goes.
A California firm, Secure Metals Inc., is launching a national “GOLDS UP, CASH IS DOWN©” media campaign showing a couple age 45 to 65 inside a bank depositing a symbolic mattress of money (a bedroll, for example) to exchange the cash for a check to buy gold. And the company is looking for a couple to take part in the effort.
Couples should have someone take their picture. And then, in 25 words or less, they should write a message telling their family, friends – and the world – why everyone should convert their cash to gold.
The couple selected will receive an all-expenses-paid trip to Hollywood where they will star in TV commercials, appear in print ads and on the Internet, telling everyone interested in savvy investments that gold is the way to go. “They will get the opportunity to tour studios, and get paid for their work,” said company officials. “The goal is to get people to realize that cash no longer has the value it once had.”
The message will focus on the need to get the job done in a hurry. The longer people wait, the less their dollars will buy.
History traces the tale. The U.S. Constitution said the dollar should be backed by gold and silver. And for more than a century, the dollar and an ounce of gold were worth about the same. In fact, from 1833 to 1933, the value of an ounce of gold and a dollar bill varied only 74 cents.
When President Richard Nixon took America off the Gold Standard in August 1971, it opened the door for gold to skyrocket. And it did, from $40.62 an ounce in 1971 to $160 in 1975, up through the $300 range in the 1990s to $871.96 in 2008.
Gold is a reflection of enduring value. While the dollar-based cost of gasoline, groceries and automobiles has soared, the amount of gold needed to buy those same commodities has remained the same.
In fact, gold is often bought and sold inversely with the dollar since the metal is considered a dollar hedge and, more broadly, an alternative currency. Many feel the metal will hold its value more strongly than other assets in times of rising producer and consumer prices.
That’s the key – and that’s what Secure Metals Inc. wants a specially selected couple to tell the world.
