Gold

[TimberWolf]

Has reached a new high against GBP today, again. Nothing new to see here, move along please. There could be a culling if and when this does crash.

£28,000 today, £21,000 a year ago.

And over twenty years...



To infinity and beyond....

Gold oooooooooooo
always believe in your soul
you've got the power to know
you're indestructible
always believe in, because you are
Gold , glad that you're bound to return
there's something I could have learned
you're indestructible, always believe in
Gold

So it's increased from about £4000 per kilo in around 2000 to £28,000 per kilo today, a factor of 7.

Back in 2000 I was in Aus with the present Mrs MF. We visited a gold mine where you could buy gold bars. I decided to buy one for £2000. She went mental. 'WTF are you going to do with that, stick it under the bed! You're an idiot'

We didn't buy it.

I never let her forget it. She doesn't question investment issues anymore.

At least house prices have been dropping over the last 5 years:-

Hardly your wife's fault that you don't have a set of balls is it?
