<<There are better investment other than gold>> such as? from this point forward, or in the past 8 years? Oops, yes, I remember, platinum did better. <<So I won't buy gold just hoping for economic meltdown in China & of course HK>> economic boom and meltdown has little to do with the price of gold not as much as printing money <<Be careful out there. People rob>> people robbing people makes the price of gold go up, not down. did you study any economics or mathematics or history ? or did you just read about the constitution that has already been effectively nullified? an issue of finance ... a good gold company earns higher margin than Intel, and produces a product having a longer useful life than Microsoft. So, what is the matter with buying and investing in gold? Do you know which startup will rival Microsoft? Are you sure about which piece real estate will be around as private holding 200 years from now? Gold will be gold, and will still be valuable 200 years from now, to the offspring of the original purchaser, as long as not sold. And there is no management risk or R&D danger.
