Should you invest in gold?More to the point, can you afford to?This book argues that you cannot NOT afford to, in terms of safety and return, but also that anyone can start investing in gold. Gold is not just ingots. The common response to gold is that it is only for the wealthy: those heavy bars, alluring though they may be, are simply unaffordable. But gold comes in more attractive sizes: Coins. This book explains not only the value of gold in itself, but also demonstrates that gold coins are the affordable way to start investing in the precious metal.From the Preface by Bill Bonner :“Gold will be in a bubble someday. But it doesn’t appear to be in one yet. Real interest rates are negative. Central banks are committed to further acts of monetary vandalism. The bubble will come later. When more people realise what is happening to their paper money and their national finances. In the meantime, gold coins are a simple way to protect yourself.”
