ok some correction is needed. I once worked in Citibank for a short time and I can tell you it's true. Just go to Menara Citibank n stand around the smoking areas (facing Nikko hotel) n feast your eyes  drool.gif

Ya, don't buy from Poh Kong. Buy from UOB better:

It's only about RM183 per gm (1oz rounds). You can also see their buy/sell difference is only about 3.25%

hi guys..
i just started to read bout gold investment these last few days..
from what i understand, investing in bank gold account is not preferable unless the bank is backed up by physical gold.
so it is better to buy physical gold.. am i correct?
the question is, is it really safe to buy physical gold from company like public gold? is it true that we can only sell back the gold to where we bought them?
and we cant do like buy gold from public gold and then keep it in a bank if we dont want to keep them ourself?

btw, if i were to open a Gold Investment Account with UOB, where can i check the current prices if i want to sell the gold?
is it depends on the bank selling and buying rate?

@geniousboy

Generally speaking, paper gold is not advisable if you plan to keep long term. I'd say they are more for speculating. But 1 thing good about paper gold is you dont have to risk theft & robbery like physical gold.

I haven't bought from public gold so i can't comment about them. but gold is gold. you can sell any gold in goldsmith shops (wah chan, poh kong, etc) although the buy back price might be very much lower. the point is, if its an emergency, its easy to liquidate your physical gold.

as for keeping physical gold in banks, thats what safe deposit boxes (sdb) are for wat wink.gif

@littleprawn

you can check for uob price here:

if you're loaded, use the premier gold account la. RM1 difference only wat biggrin.gif

i checked with their staff before. they said something like better to sell n get back the money then use the money to buy physical. if u really want to convert gia to physical, you have to pay the difference plus another RM150 conversion charges.

ar-rahnu agrobank - only jewellery stuff
ar-rahnu b.rakyat - jewellery and coins - kijang emas, ozzie nuggets and maple from UOB only. you must have the receipt/cert.

be careful though on maple as some UOB cashier said, they won't buyback if already open the softcase, but another one said, can sellback as long no weight loss due to scratch and no dent.

lustman,

thank you mbj78, keii-kun dan Francesco Top8 for sharing.

Did you all attend any seminar b4? if yes, which one/s?

as a newbie, i'm attending 2 weeks from now organised by a rempit group.

basicly I only know simple techniques which are straight forward. actually i'm just curious to know how other techniques work.

i disagree with some people taking advantage by charging thousands RM just to learn a few techniques. I inquired once for personal coaching is 2K.

just to test one simple method, next week i may want to go to bank rakyat and ar-rahnu a gold bracelet. then with the cash i'll just top up into my gold account and wait till end of the year (around 4 months).

we'll see what happens by then thumbup.gif
