JonK asked:
Now is as good time as ever to invest in gold with the dollar value going down. However, I would like to purchase it in the physical sense and keep it in my own personal vault.
Does anyone know any reputable places to buy gold bullion or authentic gold coins online for investment purposes, then have it shipped to your doorstep?
I am against buying it and owning a virtual “share” of gold. If the economy were to ever collapse, I doubt the Gold would be mailed out to my doorstep. So my goal is to get real gold that I can store.
That’s what many of the top richest people in the world are doing, and I think I should too.
Any ideas?
If someone has a reference that states it is illegal for US citizens to own gold, please share.
Where would be a good place to buy gold coins? I’ve got a hefty amount to invest (over $9,000) in Gold or Silver.
I’m looking for the best bang for my buck and I figure “collector” sites may be pricey simply because the items are for collectors. I’m looking buy for the material, not for nostalgia or collector value.
Any suggestions?

From my research, I’ve learned that US gold ownership is a privilege, not a right (US Confiscation Law 1934). If I invest in coins, even 1933 and earlier, there’s no guarantee that during a depression they won’t be confiscated. Is there a better way to protect my cash?

Lleh asked:
were then? Has the value of the gold increased significantly since then. What value would the age and scarcity of the coins themselves add. Suppose the pirate says “I’m going to come back in three hundred years and dig up this treasure because it will be worth_______times as much then. What would be a good number to put in the blank? More than a hundred?
This probably isn’t really an investing question but I couldn’t find a topic for old coins or buried treasure.

My husband said we could buy funds that invest primarily in gold but wouldn’t it be safer now to physically have the gold? What is the difference between bullion bars vs gold coins? Thanks!!

Should I invest in some Canada Maple Leaf Gold coins with my rebate check from uncle scam? (I’m a USA Citizen, but Canada Gold is 24K/Pure……)
Do you think gold will continue to go up in the next 5-10 years as it has historically? Why or why not please, thanks!

Is gold price too high to invest in now??
Question Details:Hi,
I am really worry about the inflation of USD.
So I am thinking of turning the USD i have into gold coins. I am not sure if this is a good idea.
Its more for safety than profit. But with gold being at $930/oz, I dont know if I will lose money if it go down again?
But then, I might also lose money if the USD get inflated.
So I am not sure which I should do. Invest in gold? or not?
Thanks

I’m finally about to get my career underway. I’m a pretty frugal person, so even though the initial pay isn’t fantastic I should be able to save at least $10,000 in the first year while I pay off all of my credit card debt and auto loan debt. From then on out it’s about 24k of structured student loans.
Each subsequent year, I should be able to save at least $20,000. So over the course of 5 years with a small amount of interest, I should have $100,000 saved. I would like to put this toward the purchase of a house. Hopefully the housing market will be stabilized and deflated by then so I can make a wise investment. (Yes, deflated.) See http://www.businessinsider.com/the-housing-chart-thats-worth-1000-words-2009-2
Here’s where I’m uncertain. The dollar is volatile, to say the least. If I hold onto my assets in the form of dollars, then my $100,000 in 2014 could have the buying power of 50k of today’s dollars, or even 20k or worse.
Would I be wise to convert the balance of my savings account into Euros? Can I even do that in a domestic bank, or would I have to open an overseas account? I’m trying to anticipate a solid way to save my money and maintain its buying power through thick and thin. I would be stupid to put money on a house before the upcoming Option-Arm housing crisis runs its course and the market loses another $1-2 trillion.
I’m even contemplating buying gold (not gold “investing” as you see on those commercials, but physically owning gold coins), but that comes with a whole other set of concerns for keeping it safe.

Nata asked:
If I don’t want to invest in GLD gold stock and simply want to
buy some real, plain gold, where can I do this in USA?
I want it to be a certified gold which I can sell
later, but not collectable golden coins.
When I used to live in a foreign country for a few
years, I was able to buy gold at any bank, for example
100 grams or more. They were plain pieces of gold
without any embroidery or decorations. They came with
a certificate which I could use to prove that it
wasn’t stolen.
I am not familiar how it is in USA. Maybe you know or
can give me information of how to buy plain gold in
US?
Thank you!

Since the value of the dollar is going down I have been investing in silver and gold. But, i’m not sure which is better to buy. There are silver rounds, silver bars, and silver dollars (coins). Which one will hold its value the longest?
