Buying gold and buying gold jewelries are very different things. With jewelries, prepare to pay a massive premium on the craftsmanship.

yeah, buy gold bars instead of jewelries.

Yup, exactly my thought. Gold as investment never goes wrong. Jewellery as investment... serves little purpose. Sure you can wear it, just serve no little to no purpose

same here, buying home today is out of reach, not only it is more expensive, but it is also not liquid, when you need money fast, you can't sell the house easily, buying gold is a good hedge against inflation, when you accumulate enough, you can sell it easily to buy house later

But its also not good option in pakistan when we buy then its expensive and when we sell its cheap no matter what we say at the end the shop keper says he is not trading and this is same story with all so no matter how much Gold appreciate we are always at loss what you say about this?

@@ingenuity1394 Of course the seller will need some margin of profit, you can't expect them to have the same sell and buy price, and of course gold is not for short term investment, I would say you need to keep at least 3 to 5 years horizon before thinking of selling it. We need to wait until the value appreciate more. the different with house is that gold can be sold easily anytime you want to sell, while you need to wait for sometime before your house can find buyer, in some cases you may need to wait for years.

Gold jewelry isn't as pure as gold coins. Gold coins are 999.99 pure gold and are backed by the government.... US, UK...Australia, Canada, China...... an ounce of UK gold currency is way more valuable than an ounce of random gold jewelry.

Dnt compare chinese jewelry to western ones, chinese ones are 24k western one at tops is 18k even the indian ones are only 22k

@maira3590 9 ай бұрын

In certain Asian countries like China it actually is pure. They can go from 999.9 to 999.99. British gold coins traditionally went up to only 22k because 24k gold isn't a typical find in the UK for geological reasons. It was only recently changed to 24k to conform to international standards. British gold panners should be able to confirm that. Having said that I agree that jewellery is definitely not an investment (unless we're talking about big heritage pieces/high jewellery). They're still very nice to look at though.

Is easy because housing price to high to reach …. Even if they have big salary is still very expensive not yet u have ask finance to the bank… is very common now in every developed country even if there GBP is high is still not enough to buy housing unless u buy outside city or u have gold spoon parents to help u buy it…. So this average new generation already loose hope in housing, so they spend their income on others either branded stuff , gold , investment or car

@@TomNook. A backup to what exactly? Money? The problem with gold is you can't really break it apart without a lot of effort. So you pretty much would be bartering it? Also, it would probably be the one of the first things taken by the government if there ever was a major crisis. Usa government even did it. Then you would have the credibility problem of fake gold being everywhere. That is a problem now in non-crisis times. Again I don't get the appeal. If you're looking for a storage of value, there's a lot better options.
