How to Keep Your Savings Safe - Despite Any Economic Crisis

103 38
These days we live in a strange world...
Everywhere around us people are laid off, banks bust, companies go bankrupt and even whole countries are in a deplorable state.
The bubble of financial happiness has finally burst and the outcome for the average family is disastrous.
People have to sell their houses for next to nothing because they cannot afford the mortgage anymore.
Living in tents is not just something for vacations anymore.
You may be one of the lucky ones and still have your job.
You have your income but you notice that your paper money is buying you less and less.
Inflation is the next enemy and some governments make that even worse by printing extra money to finance their plans and promises.
So how to keep your money, your savings if you still have some from being a victim of inflation and economic crisis? What should you do to make sure you can send your kids to college? Or to supplement your pension once you reach that age? The rich and wealthy have long since resorted to changing their money for gold - it is not going to be them who are the victims of the future.
Rich people stay rich and get even richer in times of troubles.
But why gold? What is so special about gold? Well, first of all gold has been a means to pay for thousands of years.
There were times you bought your groceries with gold.
After that gold became an expression of wealth; for centuries and centuries sovereigns, noblemen and the happy few were the sole owners of this precious metal.
Churches were decorated with gold, in praise of God but also to show off a little.
At the beginning of the 20th century gold was the standard the dollar was based on.
For all the dollars there were, there was the same amount of gold.
Gold has been the topic of many a movie and book; the precious metal has always inspired us, exactly because it is precious.
Gold has never lost its value throughout the centuries.
There were times that gold was a little less worth, but gold always recovered fast and grew more valuable.
If you had exchanged $100,000 at the beginning of this millennium, it would now be worth about $350,000.
Thanks to the increase of value of the gold and the inflation during the last ten years.
Is there a way people like you and me can get a hold of gold without actually having thousands and thousands of dollars laying around? Yes there is; nowadays we can all possess gold, be it in very small quantities.
Exchanging your (saving)money for pure, solid gold is the best way to keep it safe - that is why the wealthy are doing that as well, and always have done that.
They know the value of pure gold (I am not talking jewelry here) and like I said: they are not going to be the victims of crises here.
So consider this: if you would find two chests on the attic of your grandfather, one filled with gold, the other with the same amount of money from the thirties of last century, which chest would you drag down the stairs? I think - after reading this article - you will know the answer without having to think about it.
