Why Buy Gold Bars?

Gold has always been a way to protect the value of money, since gold is in limited supply (it cannot be manufactured), and it is accepted worldwide as a form of payment, and as having value. This means that even though the price of gold may fluctuate, over time the value of gold generally increases, while the value of currency may be eroded by inflation and other economic factors.

It is for this reason that when we enter a recession or economic downturn many people invest in gold as a way to protect the value of their money or savings.

Gold is seen as a great store of wealth. This means that people choose to put their savings into gold and they expect that the value of that gold will not only remain stable but will grow, they can have a tangible asset in gold where they can see their wealth and hold the wealth that they own. Only gold gives this direct ownership of wealth. You can hold your savings in your hand as opposed to seeing them appear in figures on your screen or app. People want to invest in gold as its often the safest place for investors to put their money. Over the last 2 decades gold has seen tremendous growth and the haven status that gold rightly holds has been bolstered by the fact that the price of gold has increased year on year to make gold one of the most talked about and popular investments every year.

One thing to bear in mind whether you buy gold bars or any other form of gold is that you will always pay a slight premium over the market value of gold when you buy, and you will always recieve slightly less than the market value of gold when you sell.
