Buy and sell gold

First, you should look at the reasons why you should buy gold right now- or any time for that matter. Gold has served as money for over 5000 years. It has real value and has not lost that value for over 100 of those years. An ounce of gold will buy the same amount of goods and services as it did over 100 years ago.

If only our dollars bought what they did 100 years ago, or even what they did last year. Have you noticed how our dollars keep shrinking in purchasing power. The usual things like gas, heating oil, electricity and food just keep costing more everyday- but wages don’t keep pace at all.

This inflationary economy we live in is caused by huge increases in the money supply (more on that in a minute) and could be solved by returning our dollar to the gold standard.

For those of you who remember back to 1971, and those of you who don’t, let me remind you that is the year when President Nixon of the US severed the American dollar’s tie to gold. Up until that point in time an ounce of gold was valued at $35. You could literally trade your dollars for gold and that added stability to the currency. If you wanted to buy gold it was at a fixed rate of $35 per ounce. Simple.

When the ties to gold were broken the dollar began an inflationary fall. The value of each dollar dropped faster than at any other time in history. The reason is easy to identify- the US government money printing presses started churning out more and more dollar bills. No other reason contributes greater to your decision to buy gold and here is why.

As the dollar declines gold rises in value. It seems amazing that gold has not declined in value for over 100 years! It is easy to understand why the US government dropped the gold standard, but it has hurt every citizen in the process. The feds use the extra printed dollars to pay down the national debt. Wouldn’t it be great if we could pay our debt with money we create out of thin air? That is why your decision to buy gold is so important, gold has real lasting value.

As the amount of dollars in circulation increases, commonly referred to as the money supply, the value of each and every one of those dollars declines. That is probably the best reason to buy gold. We all know that the dollars in our pockets buy less and less everyday, but what is the answer for the average family. It’s simple, buy gold as an investment.

If you want a safe, easy to purchase investment that will hold its value until you need it, the decision to buy gold is the right one. The government might have made the mistake to let go of gold in relation to our currency, but it doesn’t mean that we should.

Every family is encouraged to buy gold as part of their balanced investment program for the long term health of their family.
