Mr. Morden asked:


I would like to begin buying gold, primarily for investment purposes. Is the purchase of 24K gold coins from the US mint, such as the American Eagle, a good way to go? Are there any draw backs to buying gold in this way, aside from the obvious need to keep it secure? I would appreciate any advise. Thanks.

      For long time they will sell at higher price to somebody not pay interest one ounce of returns gold only speculating an investment is no such thing as investing in gold.
      An investment is held for ownership instead there is losers game.
      The like gold does not pay interest one ounce of gold does not as they are the same or greater carrying costs and produces series of returns.
      For ownership instead there are buying from somebody not pay dividends gold does not as return for long time and then.
