Any downside to bars?

My source: People who survived WW2 in Europe

Gold was a store of wealth to restart their life "after" the war.-> Coins/bars OK as life had returned to normal.

Silver "Coins" for trade during the war -> Any display of excess wealth (Eg, Gold) was dangerous.

Many people strawman this, but it's exactly right. I'd rather trade gold in a stable marketplace than one with its hair on fire.

Correct. Silver is for hand-to-hand transactions, gold is for capital transactions.

Ha, how many groups of guys are there in the world where a post with "bars" in the title refers to the shiny metal, and not to locations serving alcoholic beverages?

Dubai guys have it sorted

That is beautiful, and also very Sodom and Gomorrah. Or Beowulf. Grendel is on his way to tear those guys apart for their ostentatious bar.
