Which is more valuable- Money, Diamond or Gold???

Yupp, people all need food that time but do you realize that you do have something to exchange with the food?? If you are strong then you can grab anything you want during the war but other people also got weapon.. What is the thing that people will recognize that time?? If you do not have resource for barter trade then you think people will give you food for free?? So, i think we should always prepare ourselves before something happen. Keep gold as much as you can for any emergency.. Gold can exchange many thing but money only can buy a little gold..

we will never find an aswer to the question! In war there is a barter: food, clothing and other supplies that are not bought with money because you don't survive only with that (money is devalue and you don't found anyone who buys gold or diamond!

..hi rameshkumaar57, thanks for your comment, i have been visited to many jewelery shop & only 80% of the shop will accept the trade in diamond but they only will give back 20% of the money when you buy the diamond. This is really disappointed. Yesterday the gold rate in my country increase 5%. I'm lucky because i just bought some gold a day before & i gain 5% the next day.. Well, i guess by end of 2009 the gold price maybe will go up to at least USD50/gram. Gold is really valuable & it is a guarantee money back product, it is a right thing for us to invest. Gold is recognize in the whole world, no matter where you buy it, you can sell off at any place you like. Not all country's paper money are recognize. So, not all country's paper money have value. So, do invest some for your future. Hahaha... Have a nice day.

I am not tricking in this question.. Just to let you know my experience.. At year 2002 till now, i have bought a lot jewels such like diamond, gold & platinum. This year when i go to some jewels shop, they told me that my diamond & platinum now no value, i got to lose at least 30% of the price i bought few years ago.. But when i show them my golds, they although deduct 30% of the actual weight value but i make money, because 2002 to 2009 the gold price in the world already increase up to 200-300%. I am happy with that. When i ask them if i want to buy the gold now, they say now i have to use many money to buy it. The money already become small (less value)... So, i think not only for war but now gold already very valuable..

I have all three things but when i go to jeweller shop to sell off the diamonds, they only can give me a little money & i am lose in this trade. When the time i buy i use a big amount of cash to buy but when sell off they will deduct a direct a minimum 30% first then the balance will give me back.. This also happen to gold but the gold price will increase. Year 2002 till 2009 the gold price already increase 300%, so now if i sell off the gold i do not lose much... But when we look back at our money... The value is getting small & smaller... So...

There are many country's money is not recognized. Please view back to the 2nd world war, only resource & gold are recognized. My grandfather told me that, during the war time there is nothing valuable but only gold. Gold can exchange with food or weapon but money can not. No matter you bring how many kilo of the paper money to buy even a bread but no one will accept the paper money.. Please keep yourself alert to the above matter. Many people still not realize the value of the thing. Value & price is two thing.. is a very big different thing.

You are knowledgeable. But i have make many survey with many generation of people, my result is, only those 40 years above generation agreed the gold is valuable. Those younger generation still not realize the gold & the currency.. They thought money is everything.. I am worried about the younger generation now.. Maybe nowadays people think there will be no wars anymore.. I do not know.. But no matter how, for my opinion, if we do not have any resources then gold is something valuable & easy to get now.. So, buy as many gold you can for emergency.. hahaha..

...Hi earth2jacq, money is liquidity but it does not has the value.. If you use the gold like gold chain to buy something or exchange for the money of course you might lose because the goldsmith want to earn money. But if you use the gold bar to exchange resources with other people, i think nobody will reject you. Do you know that gold can control a country's currency? Some country's paper money are no value & their money must change to other currency then only they can spend in other country. It shows paper money is not really valuable. Diamond is a kind of accessory or for fashion purpose, so it always lose in value. Gold is recognize all the time.. So my friend, keep some gold for emergency ya... Hahaha.. Have a nice day..

I love your explanation. Simple, straight to the point & easy to understand. Actually a country's gold & the currency should be equal but do not know why suddenly the whole world's currency become valueless & happen to economy crisis. I think we should educate our next generation what is the word 'value'. Many people still do not realize the value of something but only knows using money to value a thing. A valued thing is a thing that is recognized forever & ever. I am not from China but I am proud of China because the government has had control their country financial well. It's currency & the gold value is equal. That is why now every currency is not stable but only renminbi is stable.

You are right, everybody knows that food is most important during the war coming. Everyone knows that resources will be the most important thing in future. Not only during the war time, but i think no matter how, all the resources also need something to exchange.. If we have resource we can do barter trade if not the gold is most useful & valuable thing to exchange food.. Thanks for your opinion..

Let me tell you about my experience.. I bought a gold & a diamond few years ago both worth USD5,000. This year i go to sell off all these thing but for diamond i only get back USD3,500, the gold is USD13,000, with the same money USD5,000 i could not buy a same quantity of the gold right now.. So, what do you think.. Which of them is most valuable.. For me, diamond is just an accessory or fashion or decoration. Paper money is something we use to exchange for something now but in future i can not guarantee whether is it still useful.. I can share with you is Diamond & Money are always lose in value but Gold will always gain in value.. Value is something forever and being recognize. So, keep more gold & you will not regret. Hahaha..

You are right too.. When people are in hungry sure the first thing in the mind is food. Of course we know that resources are very important in our life. If we have resources we can do barter trade with others who have resources, but if we do not have, then the only valuable thing and the recognize thing can exchange food for us is GOLD. Not all country's currency is recognize. Diamond can not affected a country's economy, it just an accessory or a decoration. And currency is just like the diamond, they are always lose in the value. Gold will affected a country's economy. Gold is useful since long time ago and its value is increasing. So, my friend, please keep more gold for future or any emergency.. Hahaha.. Have a nice day.

...Hi artistry, for my opinion, gold will be forever valuable & not only if war is coming or during war time or even good economy time.. Anytime also gold can exchange for resources or food or anything. Diamond is only a type of accessory or for fashion purpose. Paper money is easy for us to buy something but do not forget the currency value should be equal to the country's gold, that is why now happen economy crisis.. Because the gold & the paper money in the market are not equal!! I scared one day all the currency in the world will not be recognize and that time all our paper money become rubbish or turn into small value.. But if that time you have gold, you can use it to exchange anything you wish to, because no matter anywhere you go, gold is recognize.. That is the power & value of the gold.. So, my friend, do keep some gold for the emergency..Hahaha.. Have a nice day..

So, my friend.. Please do not wait anymore.. If you have money, do buy more gold to keep as investment or anything happen you still can use the gold to exchange for something of food.. I am happy because you understand the value. Many people do not know and they only keep a lot of money. Paper money is only useful now to buy things but we must always keep alert that anything will happen tomorrow. So, at least keep a little gold for emergency.. Economist never keep money. They do barter trade - all the trade is only using gold & resources.. As what you mentioned, gold is the standard all the time. Good luck & have a nice day..
