But when you invest in gold, you're trying to avoid the huge ups and downs of the stock market. Correct me here, but gold value tends to increase in a recession and decrease in a boon, and in a boon you can simply get a job to recoup the losses. To me, it's a choice of being safe or _possibly_ rich.
But I have schizophrenia and live with my parents, so it's sort of a moot point.
