gold is funny.
it's more of an insurance policy than an investment. the rise in value keeps pace with inflation, but does not keep up
with valued stock like Microsoft, Apple, Nvidia etc.

I bought gold at $400 an ounce in 1986. Right now, gold is at a little more than $2,000, which is about 5 to 1.
But... 38 years? not so good. However, you should have gold just in case the doomsday scenario happens.
that could make gold shoot up 50 to 1. ($100,000 per ounce)

"Beloved Pan, and all ye other gods who haunt this place, give me beauty in the inward soul; and may the outward and inward man be at one. May I reckon the wise to be the wealthy, and may I have such a quantity of GOLD as a temperate man and he only can bear and carry." --- You know WHO!

My good man, you surely know that for a doomsday scenario, a much better investment over gold is LOVE.

When in dire straits we need to be wise, and wisdom dictates that we choose Love over Gold.

In our Tavern we love to love, that's the whole idea. Some of us love food and drink, that's fine too. 🙂

If the “doomsday scenario” happens you’ll be left with just the digital certificate of purchase, not the gold itself.

The digital certificate is worthless in a world where there is no stock market and no internet.

I hope they agree that compulsory love is something we strongly object to.

Love, as far as I’m concerned has never been “compulsory” but I am truly happy when it occurs.👍

I could have bought it back in the early 70's when it was betwee3n 40.00 and 50.00 dollars an ounce. My brother-in-law at the time told me it would be a great investment. I didn't listen to him, now I kick myself for not doing so. Sometimes being stubborn is not a good thing. 🙂
