[e-gold-list] Re: Ultimate funding system
. I seriously doubt any ad agency could come up with anything as good as "e-gold is to money what email is to letters," for example. (Thanks JP!) JMR What about coke is it! There are many slogans that work. I certainly never wrote "coke is it", but, I did work on the Coca-Cola account for a year or two!! ISL's own slogan is ... "Interesting Software .. Reassuringly Expensive". :) In the UK years ago the word PINTA was introduced, 'Drinka Pinta Milk Aday'. Pinta is now in the English Dictionary. There is also Hoover for Vacuum Cleaner and Fridge for Icebox. And so it goes on. I'm sure someone can think of more. All the result of Advertising. I guarantee if you have a budget of a million dollars and a top flight ad agency, e-gold would be a household word befor the end of the year. Perhaps that would be a HUNDRED million, Mike! :) It is not that advertising does not work. Like many things it is the amount of work and effort and even money you are prepared to put into it that counts. But I like James's comment ..."e-gold is to money what email is to letters." That is the kind of thinking we need to come up with. Slogans that communicate to the uninitiated. We need new blood. the more we can do to introduce new blood into our economy the bigger better and more stable it will become and that will benefit all of us.

What they failed to realize is that cash registers have a certain number of slots for coins and dollars - the penny, nickel, dime, quarter and half dollar (and $1, $5, $10, $20 and other for bills). So, while the silver dollar sounded good, merchants (and banks) didn't like them and consumers didn't like the extra weight in their pockets. A lesson for everybody. Ideas sound good, but you better think them out completely. George Depends on what *variety* of Sacagawea dollar coin, too. ;^) http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=1212297809 Check out that e-gold discount for winning bids! Anyway, I think the golden dollar coin may have been partially a result of lobbying from vending machine interests, and they get a bit of use in Miami ( other cities I'm sure) as subway token substitutes, so the coin is not a *complete* failure.

[e-gold-list] Sparbuck Credit Card Warning
Dear All As this credit card has been promoted on this list, I thought I would pass on the following warning: Sparbuck Credit Card funded by e-gold. I recently obtained a Sparbuck card, and all went very well, with good customer service and quick response to emails etc. In the deal, I funded my card via e-gold. I have not had my card funded, and after 5 emails over 3 weeks, I can not raise anybody at all from Sparbucks. I would not suggest that anybody send anything to these guys as it seems that the "wheels have fallen off!" (I originally funded/purchased the card in December 2000) The web page still exists, but I can simply not get any answers to any emails I send, where as prior experience was an answer within 6 hours. It seems my funds have gone "west", and I will have to fund the card by other means.

[e-gold-list] Re: GoldMoney is Open
Their fees are interesting. I like the 1/10th of 1% payment fee. Note, also, the lost-passphrase fee: *Payment fee 1/10th of 1% (0.1%) of payment amount; maximum amount of 1 GoldGram (1gg). *Storage fee of 1% (0.5%) per annum; charged monthly and/or when the balance of a Holding is changed by either making or receiving a payment. *Lost Passphrase fee 100 mils minimum, 2gg maximum; the exact amount charged depends on the amount of time spent by GoldMoney staff validating the Holding owner. *Zero-out Holding fee Less than 1 mil; when the balance of a Holding falls below 1 mil, the remaining amount is debited from the Holding to bring the balance to zero. --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[e-gold-list] USD
I wouldn't expect the USD to top out anytime soon. Therefore, nor gold to bottom anytime soon (since it's mostly priced in USD, among other reasons). Or the Yen to bottom anytime soon. Capital is still flowing nicely (it appears to me) into the US because of the trade deficit and the current account deficit. Not to mention the loan to the US in the amount of all that US fiat currency used daily in a large number of parts of the world (a loan that hasn't been called yet). On top of those items is the fact that the advance/decline line on the NYSE has now been moving up for the first time in a couple of years, since the third week in December. The Piper just hasn't been paid yet. He's gonna get paid, though, in full. He always does. Not to worry. :) Evidence why capital is still flowing to the US: From IBD, February 1: "Problem loans at Japan banks still stuck at high levels: agency" "Japanese banks held $273.8 billion in problem loans at the end of September, says Japan's Financial Services Agency. FSA's chief said he's worried that two years after the government spent $68.9 billion to clean up banks' balance sheets, the number of sour loans has barely changed. Tokyo's slumping stock prices have revived talk that some of Japan's debt-laden banks coud be in trouble." From IBD, February 6: "Asia's recovery not yet complete" So says New York Federal Reserve President William McDonough. While the region has come a long way from it's 1997-98 crises, he said, "The recovery is not yet complete, and much remains to be done." ... " Some regional financial sectors are still fragile, with plenty of bad debt to worry about. And many companies are still weighted down by piles of debt." When the USD does top, it should be quite the kicker for the 'AUG Economy Infrastructure Portfolio' over at: http://www.bearerinstruments.com/ Bob "Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal." - Henry Ford --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Most certainly... but a payment fee of $8.43 on a payment of $8,430 may not be excessive when you consider current exchange rates and services charges to acquire such a quantity of e-gold in the first place. For those e-gold users who use e-gold to pay things like employee salaries and freelance amounts, e-gold is much cheaper .. I guess. Well again all depends how they acquire their e-gold. Also consider that the lower storage fee. I think that current fees structure of both e-gold and GoldMoney have something to offer to there users. All will really depend on what you do with the gold currencies. Investors who want to accumulate gold currencies will prefer GoldMoney while heavy spenders who average $500 per spend will prefer e-gold. I will certainly own both!

Craig, There are many of us who are GREATLY appreciative of the fact that you do read User Agreements. Your insight is well respected and I, for one, usually gain something from the facts you point out in these lengthy, jargon filled, CYA, we-have-you-by-the-short-hair agreements that are so prevelant in today's world! Eric From: "SnowDog" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "e-gold Discussion" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [e-gold-list] Re: GoldMoney is Open Date: Tue, 6 Feb 2001 19:31:37 -0600 that is a fairly high payment fee isn't it? that's higher than e-gold right -- can anyone do an anlysis? Am I the only one who reads the User Agreement? :) The break-even point is at $500. With a $500 payment, both sides charge 50 cents. Above $500, E-Gold charges a lesser rate because they cap their fee at 50 cents. Below $500, GoldMoney charges a lesser fee because they charge 1/10th of 1 percent per transaction.
