<But while gold can be a useful diversification tool, over the very long term experts say it is not as good an investment as stocks or bonds, because it doesn't throw off any sort of income, interest or dividends.>

As opposed to the marvelous income, interest or dividends that are thrown off by the likes of GOOG, TZOO, etc, etc.
