Gold, it has industrial use, been used a lot longer, has more trust and much bigger exposure, it would be the wisest and less risky investment to just keep your savings safe.

On the other hand, you want make a huge profit, might even lose some. At best you keep your savings at the rate you bought the gold for.

Apart from that, why are people never talking about palladium, platinum etc?

20% VAT here on the UK on silver, platinum and palladium.

Gold is VAT free and if you buy gold legal tender like sovereigns, Britannia's etc. they are capital gains tax free too Smiley

Good job United Kingdom for this fair VAT free for GOLD, this strategy must be applied in most of the countries of the world.
This increase the chances to buy and sell more gold.

ofcourse i chose gold

why ?
because bitcoin will bankrupt / smthing

and gold u can keep it until u die xD
This is what I like about it. It is a physical object you can keep safe for a rainy day when times are tough, you know it will hold some of it's value for a long time.

Well I would not completely underestimate bitcoin if I was you guys. Keep your gold, but also don't forget to keep a small part of that gold in Bitcoin as well.

no one investment is safe, not gold,bitcoin,property or etc. every investment have a risk and gold in this year drop -40%

No investment guarantees you the success. It is better to diversify the investments in different products. But for me I choose Gold over bitcoin as Gold have many satisfied customers who have invested in the past and have earned good profits too. So I would choose to invest in Gold rather then bitcoins.


To invest you must risk, we can see in history how often people lose by their investment or didnt get all the invest at the end

Risk will always follow when it comes to invetment. No investment is sure shot success. The luck factor is also important when it comes to an investment. And I think real estate is one field which is better then bitcoin or gold as the value keeps on increasing day by day and after 5 to 10 years your investment is almost doubled.

I have invested in many platforms what were cloud mining, i got some proffit at the beginning but at then end i was scammed.
So must be always careful when we choose to invest somewhere

Yeah even I was planning to invest in cloud mining, but one of my expert friend suggested me not to invest in it, he told me at the early stage they will pay you in the beginning but at the end it would be turn out to be a scam, and the same thing happened, so I was lucky enough not to loose my money in it.

If you had to convert all your wealth to either Bitcoin or gold and keep it there for 10 years, which would you choose? Keep in mind the fact that Bitcoin has only been around for 5 years, and could be fundamentally different in any number of ways in 10 years.

As much as the value of Bitcoin, gold will always have more value, I think even in the distant future, so I think you should choose gold than before Bitcoin, although I think it's a great thing Bitcoin.

bitcoin is going to have a greater value than gold in the future, it did already surpass gold one time it can certainly do it another time, and this because gold, is going to be dumped like no tomorrow, under 1k

see the prediction on 200-400 gold in the speculation thread

Cloud mining is not a great invesment though, that is like a ponzi and you will end up in losing. Ponzi will never earn you money and that is not something you should invest on. There are still many solid investments out there that have solid payout too, so choose wisely about your investment and remember to diversify it to cover the risk

Every investments sure got risk, whether it is high risk high gain or low risk low gain, it depends on yourself though. Actually it depends on which investment do you take. And you need to diversify it to make the risk lower so if you fail on this investment you still got others to cover the loss so you wont lose much on one investment
It all back in timing, when you see is your chance to make investment and get profit but you must know when you must stop.

In my opinion, definitely Bitcoin mate. Gold is falling and will be falling in the near future.
Take a look at this:

Why would you buy gold just to keep it until you die?

Well if you have a family to take care about then yes. My grandfather left me a .999 gold watch that  i inherited, and he bought it on his first salary in the 40's.

Now you can buy 3 houses with it....

It does preserve wealth.

However i dont have descendands so i just rather invest in get-rich-quick models, and so far being succesful.

eurozone troubles are causing fear in markets all over the world that is why wall st lost ground today and I believe gold and silver are rising

Gold and silver are actually falling, -0.75% and -0.70% at the moment, correspondingly. I think it is not good time to enter precious metals right now, gold could go down a few percentages still, probably even below 1,140$ an ounce (first November, then March, and now July)...

I dont prefer none of them, but just that bitgold has digitalized that gold itself, it is something new in this industry
