The only reason people would use the Ruble. When that's gone people go back to the system backed by the biggest guns and fairest legal system.

How much of your wealth do you have in Rubles? Your business? Your employees? Bcause if you're really putting your money in Rubles according to the predictions made in this article I REALLY want to follow your progress!!! :)

I too believe the gold backed Ruble will change financial markets. I just don't come to the same conclusion in the end.
