Default Considering the purchase of gold...

In article , says...

....and, other than a Krugerand many years ago, have never done so. Any suggestions as to where gold
can be purchased? I'm thinking coins, or something tangible, that I can give as Christmas presents.


Invest in the companies who are mining gold. Holding the actual metal makes you think you
have the world by the balls but, you are even more subject to fluctations in the market. You
1 oz bar's value can swing $200 either way each day. And glod is down $300 in just the past 2
years. You missed the ladder and now you are at the top of the ride and the only way to get
down is to ride the slide back to the ground.
