Has anyone invested in gold or Kruger rands and know anything about this investment?

I have some spare cash from an inheritance and was wondering if I should invest in property or maybe put this money into gold. Wondered if anyone had made investments in gold or knew anything about this investment?

Buy Krugerrands for a low frills cost-efficient gold investment. [do you see the future of gold prices escalating drastically, or falling drastically?]

Gold is at around $700 per ounce currently... Will market forces dictate gold in five years to be closer to $5,000 per ounce or $50 per ounce?

[You be the judge]

Gold prices thrive during economic uncertainty...

Anyway expect to pay premium prices for any gold considered collectible pieces.

Does this help any?

gold is historically high priced currently - more of a chance to go down than up

Gold , like any commodity goes up and down ,

Click on the 5 and 10 yr charts to see the price movement ( those are 1 troy oz prices )
Just went over $700 again recently . . .

You can buy gold coins , like the American Eagles at coin dealers listed in the yellow pages .

I have, well, actually silver more than gold. In fact most of my money is solidified in precious metals.

If you're not sure where to start, I think American Eagles (gold or silver) should be an easy place to start.

eBay is the best place to buy, ask me any other questions. I'll leave a source link as to why silver works better than gold for me.

Investing in property, however, is not a bad idea but you should wait until foreclosure bubble explodes (soon). These two options are far away in initial capital, a house costs $100-400K, which means the downpayment is $10-50K. But gold costs $700 an ounce, you can't buy much more than $10K at a time without worrying where to store it.
