Gold and silver, Investments Options

[mirocu]

If anyone is interested in this I would suggest getting the real, physical stuff (and from a solid, reputable dealer) as opposed to paper gold or silver as that at the end of the day is just that; paper.


I also thought we could use this thread to talk about investments in general. What do you feel is the best one?

If the games are anything to go by, you'd rather have weapons and armor than gold.

The only thing currency has going for it is that all merchants use it, and it's that agreement on a common standard that's the important factor. Precious metals were that standard at one point, mainly for the high value to weight ratio. Since the games let you carry unrealistic amounts of armor, they're better units of value.

Now spell scrolls would be even better, if only more merchants would take them.
