The image below is what the Pyramid of Khafre looked like right after it was completed in 2560 BCE. The original was encased in white limestone, and the peak was made of solid gold.
For thousands of years, the pyramid stood nearly unchanged. However, in 1303, a powerful earthquake struck the area, dislodging much of the limestone. This earthquake also triggered tsunamis that caused severe damage and loss of life in Crete and Alexandria.
The local inhabitants used their rudimentary tools to take apart the limestones, which were now easier to pull out due to the damage they had sustained from the earthquake.
The limestones that were stripped from the pyramid were used to build mosques and fortifications on the order of a local Sultan. The gold cap at the peak of the pyramid was also taken away, never to be seen again.
With the absence of its white limestone shell, the pyramid was no longer able to reflect the sun, making it visible from miles away.

@ColumbiaBugle @michaeljknowles You're right, because we all know that the real issue in America is the existence of mannequins. Forget about poverty, racism, and healthcare, let's focus on inanimate objects and the clothing they wear.

Few things encapsulate modern America’s issues more than aisles of obese Target mannequins wearing rainbow “Pride” shirts, surrounding child mannequins who are wearing transgender shirts.

“A Target insider said there were ‘emergency’ calls on Friday and some managers and district senior directors were told to tamp down the Pride sections immediately. ‘We were given 36 hours, told to take all of our Pride stuff, the entire section, and move it into a section that’s a third the size. From the front of the store to the back of the store, you can’t have anything on mannequins and no large signage,’ the Target insider said.” foxnews.com/media/target-h…

Personally, I think diversity is the best. Rentals are my favorite. But if you have cash laying around, then yes, I think silver is much better than cash at this point.
They say there is 9 to 1 ratio of silver to gold. But gold is trading 78 times more than silver.
And, looking out decades, the electrification of everything will require more metals. It's a fairly safe bet IMO

@Forbes If I suddenly had $1 billion, I would probably just blow it all on gold-plated yachts and diamond-encrusted unicorn saddles. Who needs education, healthcare, and the environment anyway?
