+100 Generational gold has been passed down to us. With that said we started investing at the age of 24/25 (now 44/45). Any drop in the market would be a blip for us. With that said IMO gold will continue to hold or rise. We won't see below $3k again. |
| OP looks like $4k incoming: ATH 3,966.20 |
It is a money maker: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/06/business/gold-price-us-economy.html And I mean GDX, GDXU, DGP, NUGT, SHNY and other gold miner ETFs that are correlated with its rise. They also don’t have the same 28% collectibles tax rate. What’s comical are the bullish investors on here convinced we are doing well. You know this AI bubble gone burst, right? You get why, right? Probably not. You probably think all is fine. This is the problem. Silo’ed off news sources, dunning Kruger and confirmation bias. |
| Wow! You going to start seeing thieves targeting people on the street for their jewelry like they did in the 70s. |
| I checked gold prices two weeks ago, and it was like 3700. Going up 200 in that short amount of time is INSANE...are prices ever going to go back down? |
|
Thinking about investing $5k into GDXU. I'm betting gold hits $5k in the next year if not sooner.
Thoughts from other gold investors? |
i have been buying a few ounce of gold and a few hundred ounces of silver every year for more than two decade now. I think of it as a real roth ira. Who know what the tax rates would be or if there would even be a country in 10-15 years. But these will always be tax free and i can pass on to my children. |
| It's part of the booming debasement trade as all major countries continue unsustainable deficit spending and systematically devalue their currencies. I have about 15% net worth in gold and 25 percent in Bitcoin and feel like that's pretty safe. I've sold some gold this year but now regret it. Left a lot on the table. |
Personally I’d wait until it hits $5000 or close to it. |
How will they always be tax free? |
i buy lots of them cash from the local coin shop, no receipts and no records, xfer to children = gov never knows. |
I have a bunch in it. If we don’t raise rates or do stuff to counter a falling dollar that would be good. It’s insane how much this thing goes up. Also, look at NUGT and SHNY. I mean fk it. I’m buying all 2x leveraged tech stuff like AAPX, LRCX, and QPUX and just holding on for a while. This is a frothy market. It’s a crazy market. Buy some leveraged Rigetti and just let it rip for a few months. Who fking cares? Fortune favors the bold. |
If you look carefully at the charts and economic data, there's a good chance prices return to the $3,000-$3,500 range by March or April 2026. |
| We own a lot of gold and bitcoin as part of a diversified portfolio. I would buy both. Gold is great. Bitcoin has a lot of room to run. |
Until they go to sell... they'd have to declare it as part of the estate to get stepped up basis, otherwise they owe tax on their entire sale. |
