subject: Gold, The Solid Rock Investment [print this page] Crisis times make you take a better look to your future and your savings. It is never easy to choose the best asset to invest in. But it is important to be as sure as possible that once you made the investment, over the time you'll own a fair value.
Our ancestors learnt that gold is a very good option to invest in. Over the past 1000 years, gold kept its authority among saving currencies. It survived the crisis, whether economic or social, and everyone owning gold billions knew the future looked bright. Money goes up and down, stocks and shares do the same and they all fluctuate related to different factors. Gold is a tangible product and has a reliable rhythm of growth.
Any kind of crisis, from economic to political, it is easy to overcome with gold deposits. Unlike money or shares and stocks, gold is a very tangible product and you know for sure the value you own. Humanity never stopped praising gold. And it never will. We use it to reward the best performers, to enhance our beauty with cosmetic treatments and we build statues for posterity.
Buddha's golden statue from Bangkok, Thailand, is probably the most famous in the world. The 3 meters tall and over 5 tones statue is known as the world's biggest solid gold statue.
A British artist thought it is time for the modern society to create a heritage of its own. From 2008, the world has the largest gold statue created since ancient Egyptian times. It represents the living top model Kate Moss and it has her weight in gold, about 50 kg. The statue is made entirely of 18 carat gold.
It is less likely that you will get the British model's statue to secure your future. Society has come a long way and gold bullion are available for everyone. Buying gold bullion today is easy and it is a very reliable currency.
We can aim for a professional award, while there is little chance to own the golden version of Kate Moss. Buying gold bullion is much easier today and no investment is too expensive for a safe future for us and our families.
