[e-gold-list] Re: e-gold / SR ??
This is a very interesting question and one which many may not really undersand. Standard Reserve does not re-issue E-Gold. Rather, Standard Reserve holds E-Gold as the asset backing Standard Gold. In doing this, Standard Reserve has a far more liquid asset than E-Gold making it possible to handle that asset in a different manner than E-Gold. OK -- I agree, now I am confused. So,, SR uses e-gold as asset backing for their currency yet that is not the same as re-issuing e-gold? If SR gold has nothing behind it but e-gold, SR is simply e-gold with a different name, as without e-gold there can be no SRG. Also -- how can SRG be more liquid than e-gold, when e-gold is the backing for SRG? If e-gold suddenly loses liquidity, then SRG loses liquidity entirely. The unique-ness of Standard Gold is that its asset, in that it is "gold money", can be held as money in its E-Gold account, or a portion of it could be held as a security, and so on. This takes the world of "gold money" a step further towards providing a wide range of financial services to customers, including providing loans, paying interest where a person elects to hold their value in an account where the asset can be loaned etc. Uhh,, this sounds kind of like the e-metal version of the Banking fractional reserve deposit system? Does this mean that SR endorses forward selling and short selling of its asset (e-gold)? currency. On the other hand, E-Gold may be more attractive to some, because of its 100% gold backing. It depends upon your perspective in the future which "gold" you want to hold Hmm,, I defer to your wisdom as this statement clearly confuses me (again)-- are you trying to tell us that e-gold is 100% backed by gold and SRG is not? if so, please elaborate how that could be since the asset backing SRG is e-gold and e-gold is supposed to be 100% backed by metal? I am new to this e-metal business and researching the products before making my plunge. This is one issue that bothers me -- the statment that e-gold is 100% backed by gold? This seems improbable to me because; 1) The only assurance we have that there is real metal backing is the examiner page -- which is administered by e-gold personnel only (guess you just have to believe!) 2)I do not see where e-gold has ever submitted to an audit of the reserves? does this bother no-one else? 3)If e-gold were 100% backed by metal -- how could e-gold possibly have enough liquidity cash to handle the daily outexchanging and conversion of metal to fiat currency (without selling and buying metal daily -- and this obviously is not done since the numbers on the examiner page would flucuate in proportion). If the examiner were true to form -- e-gold would have to have a section listing the amount of cash held in reserve also - and they do not. 4) None of this would bother me so much if there was a contact page or number for e-gold's escrow agent, however I do not see anything but the name of a large Multinational Bank listed.

[e-gold-list] Re: BUY ANYTHING ONLINE WITH e-gold
why doesn't some enterprising person set up a business out-exchannging e-gold directly with online retailers and negotiate discounts with retailers based on a secure and guaranteed prompt payment and the additional business it would bring the retailers? If the business can get adequate discounts, this can offset in-exchange costs of e-gold users, making e-gold much more viable for users. It would also increase the number of goods and services e-gold could purchase and therefore the viability of using e-gold. David Hillary [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Who says you can't spend e-gold?

[e-gold-list] Re: borrowing from e-gold
If e-gold does not lend e-gold, how do they explain negative balances in some accounts? On the public balance page there is one account with a balance of negative 7.7 oz of silver. I wonder how many other accounts with negative balances there are and how that is reflected on the examiner. Is e-gold always backed 100% by precious metals and has it been in the past? Is this only a claim they make? Sounds to me like there is some lending going on? -- Michael Moore [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: e-gold does not lend metal so you cannot borrow from e-gold.

[e-gold-list] Re: borrowing from e-gold
If e-gold does not lend e-gold, how do they explain negative balances in some accounts? Accounts are charged a fee of 1/12th of 1 percent of its average daily balance each month. If the account is cleared out before the end of the month, then this fee will still be applied to an account with a zero balance, for that month, resulting in a negative balance. There is no other way to drive an e-gold account negative, as I understand it. For those interested in the E-Gold LTD / Escrow agreement, check it out here. E-Gold is backed 100% by gold, at all times. http://www.e-gold.com/contracts/escrowagentagr.pdf Craig --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

From IBD's Dec. 27 issue: "China hopes to spur Internet use by slashing long-distance rates" Plans to cut long-distance telephone rates more than 50% would hurt revenue for China's dominant state-owned carrier. But it should also spur new Internet and telecom industries, state media said. The changes also cut charges for Internet access and leased lines. State media described the cuts as the biggest change for Chinese phone bills in 51 years of communist rules. Charges should fall by some $3.6 billion a year."
