Silver Linings

 

Hmm I just started writing an interesting little post about metal , attached to an article suggesting that the u.k had just sanctioned import from russian refineries ...but then this horrible little toy glitches and both what I had written and the attached content vanished , fuck this digital nonsense , it's all just blunt tools for remedial works ....beggars belief really !

I got a reasonable way into saying that when I first made the public announcement a short while ago that I had in fact stumbled across a few little silver deposits amid my wanderings ....and then about a week later some Canadian shareholders interest calling themselves " the Cornish mining company " made the same announcement from a site down in the south crofty belt in Cornwall , completely by coincidence I'm sure .... of course their share price went up by about a tenner ...

Now I did consider cashing in , floating my humble little hobbyist company and reaping some immediate cash , but let's be frank McDonald's , Amazon , Facebook , Pfizer , .....all if these bullshit companies that are killing the world and suffocating individual liberty are doing it in this model ...so no , I abstained, I'm sure my position on the idea that a passive residual income rendered through commissioned percentages on someone else's labour ....well that's just the middle classes implementing an additional system if taxation in themselves really isn't it ....

I will be completely honest and openly state that I only sought to acquire the necessary mineral rights through permissive allowances and I haven't sought , nor would I the ' right ' to purchase and privatise any of the world's beautiful corners , an aspect if my reasoning was also a conservationist one , I could envisage , that undine mad dash to keep this dead end economy afloat for a little longer that the powers that be could otherwise seek to turn the whole area into an open pit lithium mine and decimate one of the last beautiful little bits of landscape we have left here in Brexit britain 

Any way ,  on Friday just ,it was ascertained that I have enough material within the portfolio by way of artworks and projects , and now suitable access to enough silver to be able to back the artworks in the portfolio with a very basic silver standard , so that's a bit like how those big white Victorian fivers you see were backed by a precious metal ( gold standard ) 

That means that like those old fivers , these paintings are an effective ' currency ' which as I said on Friday runs at a commodity parallel akin to a sofa or a second hand 30 foot yacht .... 

Watch what happens to the price of silver over the next little while in light of international events 🤔 

This is nowhere near as elaborate as the last little written attempt that was attached to the original article , but you get the gist x
