    Alternate Currency Nuts Here's your next big investment!- Thank me Later.

    MCDonald's is introducing it's own Currency Called a Mac Coin. Always valued at at least a Big Mac, limited print run, and 5 designs. You can now literally bank on a fat persons desperation for a Big mac.

    They are only good for another Big Mac.

    Sorry for the negativity Chipper, but that's going to cap their worth.

    But you may have a point, as people chow down on big macs, the McD's will collect them back, decreasing the float.

    They could become rare.

    But still, there only good for another Big Mac.

    Your actually looking it right and wrong. Yes they will become rare collectibles, decreased float daily. But let's say you actually eat this garbage?

    You could in theory buy your big mac, get your coin (full refund) and you ate free. Roll the dice and give them coin for another big mac n coin a few times and you would increase profit ev.

    Ex: 4 trades and original purchase =5 free $5 burgers or $25 +ev plus 1 coin. Now say they raise big mac prices because the promotion sparked a big mac frenzy. Now your coin is worth more.

    Are you saying that if you turn a coin in for a free big mac, they will give you another coin as well?

    Agreed, you have long term protection from inflation. That's a bonus. You could be in a position to sell them for less than a future big mac price and make some coin.

    But it will still only be a big mac price.
