Finally Getting Around to Buying Gold

avatar

Things change, and my goals have as well, compared to what I set out to do at the end of mast year. I had gone pretty heavy into silver last year, so I made it my priority to swith to buying gold for 2024.

The problem is that with kids, daycare, school,.etc., budgets change. I originally set out to buy at least a 1/10oz of gold each month, back when gold was under $2000/oz. Since then, gold has gone up to $2500/oz.

As a result, I've had to adjust how much gold I can buy. Despite delays, I've finally bought some gold. It's not much, but it's a start. I ended up buying a 2g Heraeus bar.

You can't go wrong with Swiss gold.

The best part is they apply a very cool hologram to the back of the bar.

I paid $185.85, which was about a 15% premium. It's not the best price, but certainly not the worst either. I've been delayed in my plans, so I've got some catching up to do, but better late than never.

Yeah, you can tell the world as a whole isn't comfortable with the state of the world economy.

Everyone is loading up on gold.

I originally set out to have a ratio of Gold/silver stacked in terms of quantity before I retire or the system collapses under its own weight, but I found myself overstacked in silver or understacked in gold. With the prices now it will be tougher to catch up.

I hear you. My gold to silver ratio is unbalanced as well, and I'll have to scale back on my silver buying if I hope to get it balanced again.

Thanks!

Agreed. Gold is gold, but they do an exceptional job with adding the hologram.
