You can also buy an ETF (Exchange traded fund) which reflects the price of gold. Although there are some risks to this which I read about but didnt understand its a quick and easy method. The safest way is to hold physical vaulted gold through companies already mentioned or www.goldmoney.comComment

Thanks for the info. I must say after looking at more charts I'm going off gold a bit. Still, as long as the shoe-shine boy isn't recommending buying it, there's a chance it won't plummet in the short term. Maybe everyone will lose out in the coming years anyway no matter what and where their investments are.Originally posted by JoJoGabor View PostYou can also buy an ETF (Exchange traded fund) which reflects the price of gold.
