As an investor, you always have to be looking out for the next big thing. However, when it comes to long-term stable investments, the best new thing is actually the best old thing. In this episode, we talk about gold and why it should be part of your portfolio right now.
To help us understand the value of gold, we turn to the infamous (or famous, depending on your perspective) Doug Casey - the Indiana Jones of the investment world. We discuss why gold is such a valuable commodity and why buying now is the smart move - not after the next crash.
Some of the highlights we get into regarding gold include:
- Gold is not tied to any government body (unlike currencies)
- Gold can be traded anywhere in the world
- With a looming depression on the horizon, buying gold can protect your money better than almost any other asset
Be sure to listen to the rest of the episode to find out more about the value of gold, both today and in the future. Being prepared is the best thing you can do as an investor, and Doug Casey knows a thing or two about that.
