I too am very intrested in purchasing gold after reading such articles and hearing of the likes...with the dollar dropping, may be a smart investment. Anyway, Im just a young poor kid outta college that cant get a real job, but I could probably tie up a good deal of my income in gold and silver (10-15k). Can any experienced DUers point me in the proper direction? Im so weary about putting my hard earned cash into something such as this. Thanks.


btw..totally clueless...buy coins directly? Buy bars, buy into an index...I really have little clues what the most convienent way to do this is...furthermore, when it comes to selling such at a future point, how is this arranged? Percentages taken as a brokerage fee? Absolutely lost but I ask at DU since I have a great trust of many of you here. Is kitco a good place to get started? Do pool accounts or have it actually shipped to me (seems like to buy actual gold at a loss, and sell it at a loss, would really suck unless a rise was gaurenteed)? :) See...I know nothing but have been passively considering such for months.
