Investing In Gold

I am born in the year of pig. Some time ago, when I visited my mother, she gave me this golden pig. It is so cute. I do not buy gold nor have any fantasy for gold jeweleries. But this 24k gold plated golden pig is of special meaning to me as it was a gift from my mother. This is the only golden pig she has. My mother is always so generous. She always gives and she expects nothing. That is how she treats people around her. And it is comforting to know that there are people who treats her well in the company.

Do you know that you can use your CPF to invest in stocks/shares as well as Gold? I did not invest my CPF with Gold. I have too little amount in my CPF. Paying for the house mortgage is going to be a headache. Several years ago, I attended seminars on gold investment at Philip Securities. People can buy gold bullion as means of investment. For details be read at the site BullionVault. If you have money in CPF, it is good and wise to invest your money. Whether you invest in stocks/shares or gold, it is always good to diversify. Investing in gold is a good way to preserve your wealth. Since olden days, our grandparents already know this fact and you can see them collecting gold bars and keeping them in safes. I had friends who buy gold for investment. It really works rather like stocks and shares. If you put your investment long-term, you can see the growth over the years. Only use money which you have earned for investment. When you have accumulated enough money, you start to accumulate wealth by investing your money. Spread out your investment risks by investing in different types of money instruments.
