Excellent time to buy. Gold and silver are on a fire sale. The Eurozone crisis is flocking everyone to the dollar, so it is gaining strength. That, plus the fact that investors are dumping their metal for either margin calls and/or other investments to temporarily ride the dollar upwave, sending metals towards the basement. However, the price has now stabilized, and will slowly begin to creep upwards. Gold will be WELL above $2500 by December 2012, and some say even $2000 by the end of this year. Regardless, you would be hard pressed to find a better buy than physical metal at these prices. Split your money, half gold and half silver.

Bought my first 1 oz. American Gold Eagle.

Congrats. Buy a few silver eagles too. Real money is fun to play with.

Why did you decide on a gold eagle? They have the largest premiums of all the bullion coins. With Krugerrands and Maples you get the same amount of gold for less FIAT

Personal preference I guess. Popular and easier to sell. And they look cool.

You get a lot of the premium back ($50 most of the time) and if they have a good year, they appreciate. Recently, when gold was $1850, there was a shortage of eagles, and Apmex was BUYING them for $100 over spot.

Time to buy some.

I see this question a lot.. Why do you want gold?

NFRs2000NYC

Because I don't want dollars.
