Non-Paper Gold Storage Fees

Post by MachineGhost »

Safety deposit boxes, vaults, storage, etc. anything applies so long as it's actual physical and directly held gold in allocated or unallocated form.

That link makes clear what the author thinks the long-term bank strategy is (not sure I believe it, but that's for another time). My question is what is the very next move on the part of Chase? I mean, what is their plan for enforcing this new safe deposit box rule?

Surveillance of the safety deposit box contents, probably.  All in the name of fighting "terrorism", of course!
