Why Buy Gold Bullion?
As early as 4000 BC, humans used gold to adorn their bodies, belongings and homes. Soon after, gold was used for commerce during the Bronze Age (3500 BC - 1200 BC), and gold has been a store of value and a tool for barter for thousands of years since.
In today’s world, when alarming news of economic instability dominates the headlines, investors increasingly look to precious metals to safeguard their wealth, serve as a hedge against inflation and to diversify their investment portfolios.

A Closer Look: Why Invest in Gold?
As the economy flounders and the stock market oscillates wildly, people turn to gold to safeguard their wealth and serve as a hedge against economic crises - often inflation. Many buy precious metals in conjunction with alternate investment options (called diversification), while some emphatically prefer the physical ownership of gold to less reliable paper investments, such as stocks and ETFs.
Indeed, investors turn to gold because it is a tangible asset, one they can store and transfer when, where and how they choose. Gold rounds, bars and coins can be held in your hand, kept in your possession and used for barter when the economy goes kaput.
Another key motivation for investing in gold is its inherent, intrinsic value. Humans have been using gold in jewelry, art, industry and commerce for centuries. In fact, as of 2009, an estimated 5.3 billion troy ounces of the earth’s gold has been mined for our use.
Today, the precious metal continues to serve as a store of value and medium of exchange, making it one of the most stable and enduring assets in history - then, now and into the future.
Last (but not least), as tangible assets, gold coins and bars make fantastic gifts and historical collector’s items. Indeed, gold bullion provides a lifetime of enjoyment for you, your loved ones and future generations.
