Karatbars sells plastic cards.
Karatbars sells gold bars embedded in unique collectable cards, as well as other gold products and gift items. From fragrances, champagne, clothing, time pieces etc., The company is an e-commerce company with the ability to include numerous products across their spectrum of product offerings.
There you go with that "argument" again. Two points:
First, the argument would be impressive if any businesses accepted Karatbars. A while ago you said that mass-market adoption was just around the corner and that hundreds - if not thousands - of merchants would start accepting them anytime now...
There are various K-Exchange outlets throughout the world, and many more coming on board every day. At this stage in development, the full database of K-Exchanges has not been released. People are in the accumulation phase. Why spend a preserving asset when you can spend a depreciating one? I have no control over the release of the database of K-Exchange locations. I also have no ability to predict how soon the paper currencies of the world will experience such a depreciation that no one will want to transact in them.
Second, if you really care about transaction friendly weights, you may as well stock on iPhones. The 4S contains 0.001 ounces of gold - a much more practical amount. And it's way better than a plastic card because it's functional: you can use it as a phone!
Karatbars does have a stock of gold iPhones. They don't sell them tho, ...they give them away to affiliates.
0.001 ounces of gold is indeed a transaction friendly weight, and an amount our system will be able to accomodate. Through our accounts we will have the ability to trade in mere fractions of a gram. Not in something fiat, no credit, but in something tangible... real money, gold.
You just spam forums about something you don't understand (gold), talking about a subject you don't know about (economics).
I don't believe that's the case. Clearly we have a difference of opinion. I have mine, you're entitled to yours.
This bit is from http://www.lautorite.qc.ca/en/press-releases-2014-conso.html_2014_alert-karatbars.html: "With the company's "Affiliates" program, investors can make Internet-based purchases through Karatbars plans and they are encouraged to recruit two other Affiliates. These Affiliates are in turn encouraged to recruit two other Affiliates each, and so on. Affiliates are lured by the possibility of earning large payouts, in particular through a percentage of amounts collected from the Karatbars plans and gold products purchased by referrals."
I'm not a spokesperson for the company, and as such it would be inappropriate for me to comment, other than to say I am extremely confident that any confusion this may cause for some will be resolved satisfactorily.
Now, I don't know about you, but this sounds like an MLM to me... is that not how it works? If it is, how is this not an MLM? It's the textbook definition of an MLM.
Bottom line: if it waddles like a duck and it quacks like a duck then chances are that it's a duck and not a rabbit.
As I've stated before, Karatbars is an e-Commerce company that sells 999.9 pure gold bullion products produced by LBMA accredited Good Delivery List refineries. They offer free gold accumulation accounts that allow people to buy gold in smaller, more affordable weights of 1 gram, 2.5 gram and 5 gram weights, and have the gold delivered to them by insured courier, or stored for free..
They also provide a generous affiliate referral program that rewards affiliates for their referals to the company.
What the hell does "not subject to arbitrary government recall or sanctions" even mean? If the government were to pass a new Gold Act, all gold could be recalled.
All government issued currency can be recalled, and removed from circulation by the governments that issued them. If you take your bank card out of your wallet, you will see that it is considered the property of the bank that issued it. You are allowed to use it as a convenience. If at anytime the bank that issued it wants to "recall it" they can. You are the bearer of the card and permitted to use it as a convenience. Bank of America does not however have the authority to recall a Bank of Canada ATM card. They didn't issue it, and therefore cannot recall it.
Perhaps because what Karatbars is doing doesn't make sense? But then again, no MLM does.
If it doesn't make sense to you, that's ok. You are not required to be a member, customer, or affiliate. It makes sense to me and many others. If you would like it explained so it does make sense, feel free to do so through
www.ViewTheInfo.com Again. Karatbars is not a MLM.
Ooh. A business plan. With numbers. Tell me, how much gold do I and the people under me have to sell, under your business plan, to get $1,000 a month?
Karatbars affiliates do not sell gold. The company offers 7 streams of income that members can choose to participate in and earn from. You may view the 7 income streams via our website by visiting
www.ViewTheInfo.comI take it you are proof of the plan's "success"?
Being an affiliate, setting up a system, and utilizing a strategy has provided me with zero-risk financial exposure, positive residual cash flow, and the ability to acquire gold that I don't have to dip into my personal finances to acquire... more gold than I would otherwise be able to acquire dipping into my pockets every week from money from a JOB. (if I had one). Many of our affiliates have chosen to utilize the same strategy I and many other use, because they have come to the conclusion that the last 10 years at their "jobs" didn't get them where they wanted to be financially, and the next 10 years at their jobs would not get them where they wanted to be, or allow them to acquire the same amount of gold on a weekly basis that utilizing this system could. No one is obligated to utilize any strategy or even refer anyone. The system is there, the account is free, and people are able to use their accounts simply to earn referral bonuses without ever acquiring any gold themselves, and likewise, people are free to remain customers and simply acquire gold without ever making a single referral if they choose. Just like you, me, or anyone else can choose to make a purchase from Amazon.com without joining their affiliate program, or recommending a book, or any other product available through Amazon.
LOL at the 5 figure weekly passive income cash flows. And as for the free gold bit, I'll say it again: if you are getting gold for free, the person giving you the gold attaches no value to it. Since that's unlikely, the likely explanation is that you're actually paying for it, but don't know it.
Whether you understand what we are doing or how we are doing it makes no difference. We still get paid.
Sure, you'd rather get paid 20,000€ in passive weekly income, along with another 6 or 7 ounces of gold per week (another 5,000 € at current rates). The question is: are you? The answer is no. You aren't getting paid 20,000€ and 6 ounces of gold per week. You aren't paid that per year. Or per decade.
You're right about something: the no-brainer bit. It describes you perfectly.
Whether you understand what we are doing, or how we are doing it makes no difference. We still get paid.
You forgot the "BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE. CALL IN THE NEXT FIFTEEN MINUTES AND WE'LL GIVE YOU A 30-DAY SUPPLY OF COLON-FLOW FREE JUST FOR TRYING KARATBARS! CANCEL ANYTIME, BUT KEEP THE COLON-FLOW AS OUR GIFT TO YOU!"
No but for a limited time, (summer special) affiliates who choose to participate in our optional DS program can, for an additional 45 € receive 90 € worth of coupon codes (6 codes x 15 € each) towards various collector cards. Many are choosing to use these codes to acquire the newly issued voice of Africa collector cards. Proceeds from the purchase of those card go towards supporting a school & orphanage in Africa.
I'll bet there's more than 300 grams of plastic in that picture. And you're still a few cards short of a troy ounce of gold, aren't ya?
That's not at all accurate. There are 31.1 grams in a troy ounce of gold.
Each one of those black & gold cards you see has a 1 gram gold bar embedded in the centre.
Each one of those silver/grey cards you see has a 5 gram gold bar embedded in the centre.
Anytime I have 4,000 € in weekly referral rewards, my system automatically acquires 4 of the black & gold cards for me. You do the math, and tell me whether you still think there isn't an oz or more of gold there.
Feel free to PM me if you require any further clarification.
