    Nice, calm and good.
    I've got a suggestion. To anyone interested, message me privately, and we can set up a system of investment, where I can either A, take your gold, bounce it on the markets and try to make it worth more than what it was before (ie turning one brick into 5 via market highs and lows) or I could take a set amount of money from you, and try to make it more, via the same buy sell process.
    This would be for a small fee, of either whatever profit I make from buying and selling the gold to get it worth more, OR say 5-10% of the money I make from buying selling gold.

    Basically, I can make money into more money, gold into more gold or money into gold via fluctuating markets for a very little cost to you, PM me for more or to set up your account Smile

    Note, myself and friend do this, and with work, we make around a profit of 80 bucks a day with very little gold involved (like one brick) so it can be done. Note there is a risk, like today, we lost 20 currency due to a risky play, but if you don't want us to take such great risks, then we won't, we just did it because big risks could mean big payout

    So far, together, we've made around 2000 bucks, so it's a decent payoff for a week. He makes 95% of his money from gold tradin and I make about half of mine from it so if you are interested, or even wanna just igve it a try, message me and we can work something out

    It doesn't have to be original
    It's a simple way to earn money, I mean worst comes to worst, and take a big risk one (like international markets and all that) and you lose it, I'll pay back half of the original and either take the remainder locally, and try to get it back up or give it back to you. It does work,

    Yupp, it makes sense, keeps the rich at bay, but it's a bitch to keep up with, I mean I can't do much, and I just got invaded by the swedish
    I refuse to go quitely... The funniest part, the whole reason we got our asses kicked was because the CP kicked out a guy from congress for being a nat'l security threat, and then he went and sent what he had saved for our defenses (tanks, money food) to sweeden to help with their planned invasion of canada. And the funniest part, he was running for CP I do believe XD

    I rofl'd and then realized this game's politics is pointless and I'm just gonna keep levelin up and doin my thing

    Um, for gold investments, I keep around five percent of what's made, either in gold or money, depending on what's left over. Usually what happens is I can get this much gold, but will have 3 dollars left, and I keep that, and whatever little bits and pieces are left. I send daily reports too of what I have from it and whatnot

    Well you'd be a USA citizen, but just under the rule of Spain. You're still part of the USA, but you just follow Spanish laws and such. And Burke, I don't get the politics either. The president doesn't even do anything really...And BTW, I'm just stockpiling my food. I have like 5 machine guns, a tank, and a bunch of food. I'm just gonna save till like the end of this week and then go fight.

    on another investing note i'm trying to upgrade my weapon and food facilities to lvl 2 (for now eventually lvl 5) so if anyone has gold they want to donate I can repay it double once I get enough to upgrade and make more money a reason i'm asking around is because in australia gold is currently very expensive because a lot of people want as much money as they can to buy weapons and food in places like USA and such gold is a little cheaper

    Please, on behalf of canada, boycot Rylde.. Long story short, he's a traitor and is funding the invasion of Canada. Also on that note, anyone willing to come help out in the fight of Canada would be great. Rylde's terroristic acts of demanding our CP step down, repay his debts or canada be invaded completely should not be stood for..

    Fighting in our wars would be wonderful, but I'd also enjoy if people started invasions in sweeden to to distract them, that'd be nice Smile

    I figure, if we are able to foster a war in Sweden, with another country, like america, then they'll focus on defending their turf, and we can reclaim ours, therefore saving the country of Canada, and also potentially fixing both our markets, since it was all started by the swedish invasions of canada and the spanish? invasions of america, with massive outmigration, and war.

    Once I get $500, I'm gonna open an iron factory and a weapons factory. Tomorrow I'll put some gold up for probaly $365, which was $3 cheaper than the lowest price today.

    And Davis, honestly, until you can afford mutliple iron factories, it's kinda cheaper to build the weapons factory, buy the material and sell it. Raw - around 50 cents. Level 1 gun -7 and change
    Prices in CAD

    Should be about the same though in america. Give it a try. That way too you can save up to build factories while you get your weapons factory built up as well, not to mention the greenbacks Wink

    BURN! BTW I just build a weapons factory. I made like 8 weapons, so if you need some, go get some! They're on sale for $2.70, which is the lowest price. I bought like 80 raw materials for like $15 and made 8 weapons.

    move to canda XD they sell for 7.50 here Razz

    Trick to selling is alkways underbid the lowest bidder so long as it won't cause you to lose money

    And tell her I's the b'y that fights da sweeds, I's the b'y that kills em, I's the b'y that catches some gold, and brings 'er back to da b'ys
    Translation: I'm busy fighting the sweeds from my home land, and successfully doing so as of late. I also shop the gold markets and bring back increased gold amounts to friends.
    I's 'urtin 'cause dem goddamned sweeds keep troutin' h'over 'ome, h'and makin' me gold price 'igher tan de look-oot on me brudder's troutin' boat.
    da 'ys can 'old h'off a big force, 'ell, h'even a ger-big, but dese b'ys h'are all come ye come in, and we just ain't trained for dat shit
    Translation: I'm running out of gold and money unfortunately because the Swedish soldiers have invaded my country and made the gold prices shoot through the roof, making it near impossible for the markets to move.
    So me and da b'ys got forced to move on up to the mainland wit all dem mainlanders h'and h'act like we dun 'ate all deer guts more dan a chuckle 'ead bare buff find a gandy glitter in fortune bay
    Translation: So me and all my neighbours had to move to Ontario and take shelter there, acting like we are all friends here.

    And that's my repsonse in Newfinese in drips and drabs, 'ope it wasn't too 'ard to glutch!

    yeah if you want to hire employes don't go for raw materials "factories" becuase unless you get the most expensive one they don't produce enough to make an income
