Don't You Let Anyone Tell You Silver Investing is Not Worth the Effort

I have often mentioned on this blog that silver has been valued for at least 6,000 years. But rarely do I come across a photo alluding to that fact. The photo below shows a 2,000 year old Roman water wheel used to pump water out of an underground mineshaft at the Atalaya Silver Mine, Rio Tinto, Spain.

Weekend Chillout - Southern Stars and Rising Sun

In recognition of the Australia Japan free trade deal signed this week I thought some classic JPop was in order. The following music video is from Olivia Lufkin, a friend of a friend of mine. She is no longer a pop star but can be followed on twitter here

Tip: For those followers who don't understand Japanese don't worry half this song is in English (somewhat like Olivia).
