@greyknight33 @jazzilla Denominator of stocks are made up too. Read up on FTDs, illegal naked short-selling, and Cede & Co. Unless a stock is in your name at the transfer agent, you don't own it and Cede & Co can make up whatever numbers they want as long as the vast majority is in street name.
Commodities have value, but only if you're bartering and not exchanging for funny $.
Real Estate, while there is finite quantity, is a joke until the fifth amendment is changed to repeal eminent domain.
