403 tons of Gold will raise 11 to 12 billion dollars at present price. It seems a very small amount of money compared to the trillions of dollars the printing press can churn out by the wheelbarrow load. I imagine there is 2 billion poor people in the World so the dollars raised will not even reach them will it !!!!!!!!!!
