I buy both! Gold is undeniably awesome and i want more!!! But a few paths to get to that destination include buying bitcoin and silver and playing the ratios...
Y'all know that silver at 75:1 is undervalued so get some! Trade it for gold when the ratio drops.
Y'all know that gold is awesome. Buy some! Get a 1/10th or whatever you can afford. It's very concentrated physical wealth.
Y'all have heard of bitcoin. Get some! I cannot believe what a little amount of bitcoin turns into when you send it to a bullion dealer -- holy moly! It's like it's free!!! I have had some splendiferous moments opening up a box of $600 worth of loot that i paid $300 for a month ago...
Research this shit -- it'll make you rich.
