QUOTE(sylar111 @ Sep 10 2013, 05:55 PM) I know. But do you find that it is worth it? I mean do you think there are other cheaper ways? Thanks for the info though. So you feel that Maybank is the best? maybank is not the best but is the least to open an account. u only need 1 gram to open whereas some banks need 5-10g. |

QUOTE(jieson77 @ Sep 11 2013, 04:12 AM) Physical is u own the physical form of it. Like u buy gold necklace from poh kong and sell it when the price is high to earn ur profit. Same thing goes to bars/coins. Paper gold is like I pay $ and buy gold in the form of paper. Written in the paper is the amount of gold u own and u sell it at the price u like. If the company go bust, ur money is gone. Yes, u have to buy and sell according to ur bank's buy/sell price This post has been edited by hey_there: Sep 11 2013, 11:57 AM |

QUOTE(elfness @ Sep 11 2013, 12:08 PM) Hi all the sifus here. U'll risk the company go bust. Imagine if u have rm100k worth of paper gold with u and the next day u see, the company bankrupt. Ur rm100k is gone with the company. If u have the physical, u don't have to worry. Like u buy from poh kong and the next day poh kong bankrupt. U no need to worry coz u have ur gold with u. why would ppl buy physical gold when paper gold is more easy to invest and has narrow spread?? If buy from Poh Kong at 167 can only sell back at discounted 20-25%.( assume price stagnant) am i right? Another reason ppl buy physical is to curb hyperinflation. Money is being print in every country and it cause inflation. Money might become just a piece of paper. By then, ppl will use gold/silver as money just like few hundred years ago. Google mike Maloney and see for urself. I invested in GIA (paper gold) instead of a physical gold coz I can't afford the physical. And I'm not investing a lot of money in GIA. Plus, it's a bank... Chances of it going bust is slimmer. It depends on how u look at it. |

QUOTE(cybermaster98 @ Sep 11 2013, 12:45 PM) It would be wise to revisit the wisdom of Buffett and his thoughts on gold: totally agree with u. but i take my friend's situation, she can only afford monthly rm200 for investment. she would have save the money in savings a/c and earn the interest. instead, she use the money and buy a gram of gold in GIA, although it's riskier than savings a/c, but if she can sell it at higher price, she would have earn higher profit than gaining interest in savings a/c. let's say she buys 1 gram of gold every month (like saving rm200/mth), and sell them at a profitable price (assuming after 10 mth), she would have 10 x rm200 (her initial capital) + profit = rm2xxx. now, that she have more money, she can enter the stock market with it.1. “Gold gets dug out of the ground in Africa, or someplace. Then we melt it down, dig another hole, bury it again and pay people to stand around guarding it. It has no utility. Anyone watching from Mars would be scratching their head.” 2. “The problem with commodities is that you are betting on what someone else would pay for them in six months. The commodity itself isn’t going to do anything for you….it is an entirely different game to buy a lump of something and hope that somebody else pays you more for that lump two years from now than it is to buy something that you expect to produce income for you over time.” 3. “Gold is a way of going long on fear, and it has been a pretty good way of going long on fear from time to time. But you really have to hope people become more afraid in a year or two years than they are now. And if they become more afraid you make money, if they become less afraid you lose money, but the gold itself doesn’t produce anything." 4. “I will say this about gold. If you took all the gold in the world, it would roughly make a cube 67 feet on a side…Now for that same cube of gold, it would be worth at today’s market prices about $7 trillion – that’s probably about a third of the value of all the stocks in the United States…For $7 trillion…you could have all the farmland in the United States, you could have about seven Exxon Mobils (XOM) and you could have a trillion dollars of walking-around money…And if you offered me the choice of looking at some 67 foot cube of gold and looking at it all day, and you know me touching it and fondling it occasionally…Call me crazy, but I’ll take the farmland and the Exxon Mobils.” 5. “The major asset in this category is gold, currently a huge favorite of investors who fear almost all other assets, especially paper money (of whose value, as noted, they are right to be fearful). Gold, however, has two significant shortcomings, being neither of much use nor procreative. True, gold has some industrial and decorative utility, but the demand for these purposes is both limited and incapable of soaking up new production. Meanwhile, if you own one ounce of gold for an eternity, you will still own one ounce at its end.” 6. “What motivates most gold purchasers is their belief that the ranks of the fearful will grow. During the past decade that belief has proved correct. Beyond that, the rising price has on its own generated additional buying enthusiasm, attracting purchasers who see the rise as validating an investment thesis. As 'bandwagon' investors join any party, they create their own truth — for a while." 7. “I have no views as to where it will be, but the one thing I can tell you is it won’t do anything between now and then except look at you. Whereas, you know, Coca-Cola (KO) will be making money, and I think Wells Fargo (WFC) will be making a lot of money and there will be a lot — and it’s a lot — it’s a lot better to have a goose that keeps laying eggs than a goose that just sits there and eats insurance and storage and a few things like that." the conclusion is, not everybody has the money to buy stocks. some might just be able to squeeze only rm100 a month. while saving for a big chunk of money for bigger games like stocks, GIA is one of the options. just my 2 cents |

QUOTE(davinz18 @ Sep 11 2013, 03:18 PM) Nowadays we cannot predict the price. Suddenly it would shot up because of some "war" issues. Suddenly it would dropped because "war" delayed & fed tapering true... The 1200/oz is just what UBS predicts, don't know can reach that level not |
