Wait for gold to fall sub-$600, preferably $400, then buy it and hold for a couple of years until the price hits $6000+.

But don't put them anywhere yet, there's a long way to go. Think on this. While government and personal debts are spiralling upwards we're getting deeper and deeper into the shit, and I don't see that being turned around for years.
