Gold

Let's take a few minutes to moan about the state of the world. Seriously, it's like you can't win. After the recession we knew the dollar was a bad investment. They economic downturn meant that house prices suffered, so property was a bad investment. Then came the crisis in the Euro zone, so the Euro joined the dollar in being something the inverters ran away from. The hung parliament in the UK meant the pound was the same.

Even oil hasn't had a good time because most of it is floating in the sea just off the coast of America. It's like all investments have gone south.

While there has been a slight dip in the price of gold it has still been doing well when you compare it to the ones I have just listed (moaned about). So opting to buy gold bullion is still a good idea. Check out www.usgoldbureau.com
