Subject: Re: Truth Social Users Get Scammed Hard!
I've noticed the Reps tend to be more gullible. I'm not trying to be pejorative. Maybe it's something in their innate philosophy that makes them susceptible? For example, gold. Whenever I have to endure a TV tuned to FOX, inevitably a commercial for buying gold comes on (often with William Devane as the spokesperson). Why? Sure, gold (and other precious metals and commodities) is a valid investment, if you know what you're doing. Most people don't. And I can't believe there are that many "preppers" predicting the end of the world.** An index fund is a far better investment.

Other examples more recently are the convict-version of the bible, and apparently now shoes. Unlikely they would ever be collectibles. $60 for a bible that you could get for maybe $10? (A lot of churches give them out free, last I knew.) [type type type] OK, on Amazon you can get a "giant" one with faux leather cover for $15.




**If it is the end of the world, gold will be valueless. Just as US currency would be valueless. Portable water filters will be priceless. And a good knife. You can't eat or drink gold. Firearms would be useful for a little while, but with no one making ammunition, eventually they would be useless. Food, water, and shelter would be the priorities.
