That is the issue. It SHOULDN'T"T take 7 years.
The Fed knows they are screwed and caught with their pants down.
That is why it will take 7 years.
No one here thinks it should take 7 years. We all know that is BS.

Like I stated, I believe this is a catalyst for war.

I am sorry for being a little bit blind or something, but WHY does it take 7 years? The linked articles are only quoting that number without any causes to it?
Really, I could not care less if the gold is here, there or somewhere else -- if Bill Gates wanted to cloth his children in gold hemds, then let him have his way. It's nice and shiney, but other metals are, too..

Perhaps the length of time (7 years) is due to risk management. Could you imaging shipping 300 tons of gold all at once; only to have the ship sink/plane crash/cargo hijacked...etc. Unless there is an immediate, urgent need for the entire 300 tons, then why not minimize risk by shipping it in small increments?edit on 17-1-2013 by LeatherNLace because: (no reason given)
To this end, the Bundesbank is planning a phased relocation of 300 tonnes of gold from New York to Frankfurt as well as an additional 374 tonnes from Paris to Frankfurt by 2020.
