I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.
@LeilaniClaire The crazy part is that those advisors are probably outperforming the market and raising good returns but some are charging fees over fees that drain your portfolio. Is this the case with yours too?
Buy physical gold, so many practical uses like door stopper, paperweight, exercise equipment, and weapon to beat up would-be robbers. Highly recommend!

I invest in GLD ETF. The only metals I invest in and hold is lead, aka ammunition. If physical gold will be the only reputable currency then you can't assume the country is in the same state it was in when you made that purchase. Invest in gold ETFs buy ammo. Lol
"Investing in US Gold ETFs attracts tax @28% on the price appreciation if I hold it for more than one year and sell it." I don't know the nuances of this statement. Appreciate it if you add color to it. Thank you.
It makes no sense to buy physical gold and have someone else store it. The reason you buy physical gold is to have it on you in case of an emergency or a monetary collapse. If you buy above the minimum for most dealers then shipping and delivery is free, and storage is free, so the only costs you should be contending with are the buy premium and the sell price. You should always be getting at least spot price when you sell, and possibly more depending on the form of gold. If they offer less, then walk away, they're double dipping hoping your desperate to sell. Which means that what really matters is getting the best buy price you can at the lowest premium. PS If you're going to pay someone to "store" your gold, just buy the etf instead and stop losing value. The ONLY reason to ever store gold would be because it's part of a retirement account and you're not allowed to receive it until it matures.
@@purpleking159 If there was a monetary collapse, either hyperinflation or governmental collapse, you would want to have the physical gold, not an ETF. If you are simply hedging against everyday inflation a gold ETF is fine.
You forgot that with ETF's you have the opportunity to do options. Either getting paid to buy stock at a lower price (selling puts) or selling cover calls on future prices of Gold to make money in between to buy more gold. This is what people do with stock that pays no dividends. If you play it right you can make a huge percentage just by selling covered calls.
Thanks, it seems a significant factor that wasn’t mentioned is comparing the potential return of each. Like how does the return of a gold ETF correlate with the return of real gold. Thanks.
There is a bid/ask price for ETFs that is effectively a premium on the spread. So why is that not part of your calculation for ETFs? This can be 0.2%-0.5% and possibly higher if market liquidity dries up.
Awesome video man! My uncle used to talk about people back in the day that used to buy gold in turbulent times and I just imagined paranoid people like building basements just to house blocks of gold everywhere lol so this was super interesting to me.
Investing and diversifying your portfolio with precious metals,real estate, stocks, crypto currency and forex trading is the wisest thing to do and really profitable.
Now is the right time. If you really want to grow your money and attain financial independence. Start investing, that's the best way to accumulate wealth. Spent my 30s and 40s investing in stock and several multifamily real estates. That’s the best I did for myself as it has consistently beaten my expectations of a return. Lately, discovered ¢rypto, and life feels better.
I wish I could like this comment million times. I always tell people that it's better late than never. Therefore, If you want the chance to maximize your income, you will need to explore investing your money
Not quite long I started investing. I'm very curious and need help on how to enhance and increase my returns. Any good investment tips would be appreciated

Robert Kiyosaki is always banging on about buying physical gold or silver. The way the fed keeps printing money is only going to push the price of gold up! The value of the dollar will devalue over time. Like #31
Never thought about buying physical gold... haha not my kind of thing though, I would definitely stick to the ETFS! well done again for another great video :) thanks for sharing mate👏
Nice overview! Wouldn't theft also count as a form of 3rd party risk? It is a bit lower risk, in my opinion, as much more wealth can be stolen through phishing or hacking. Personally, I mix physical and ETF and assign specific jobs to each. The physical part is for wealth insurance purposes (hedge against devaluing pension benefits) and long term wealth transportation into the future. The ETF-part is for ease of rebalancing the portfolio and being able to profit from, often very short lived, extreme price spikes.
The comparison is incomplete if u do not consider the costs, the waiting time, the various restrictions and risks involved in getting physical delivery from the ETF. I had to wade through pages of small print and came up with a dozen of questions regarding the process of getting physical delivery from the UBS GOLD ETF and am still waiting for them to answer and I bet they will do all what they can to avoid giving me an official answer in writing. I therefore think that ETF is superior to holding physical gold only as long as u do not have to get physical delivery of the gold stored in ETF’s vault. BTW the gold is not even stored by the ETF but by a custodian and its subcustodians. The subcustodians do not assume any responsibility in case the gold is lost for reasons beyond their control and the custodians do not assume any responsibility for the loss of gold stored by sub-custodians and of course the ETF does not assume any responsibility whatsoever for the loss of gold stored by the custodian and/or its subcustodians. So the stage is perfectly set for the gold to “evaporate” once the circumstances are ripe and u will have zero chance to hold the ETF (or even the main custodian) accountable for the loss.
@@db5572 50% stocks (low fee) 30% bonds 10% gold etf 10% physical gold. whenever one of them go down you sell the ones that are high and buy the one that is low.
This is brilliant content. It’s one of those things you subconsciously debate with yourself. LIKED and SUBSCRIBED! I’m watching the video on Silver next. Don’t forget to diversify with Real Estate 😉
Wow very interesting contrast!! Investing in physical gold or a gold ETF is not the same thing!! 5k years track record on physical gold is something!! Thanks for the great content Nathan!!💰
You mentioned that GLD charges 0.4% ANUALLY. So if you are planning to keep it for 10+ years, it will end up costing you more than the premium you are paying physical gold. I don't think your comparison was fair.
@@NathanHQ Yes but paying 0.12 for storage is better than paying 0.4 for gld (both are annual costs). If you are keeping them for a long time, the GLD annual costs will catch up to and then exceed the amount you paid for the premium. Isn't this correct?
This is a good one! I had a lot of questions about the gold industry. Yes I prefer physical too, because I seen a couple of friends here in Houston being scammed with a company that went out of business. So I say if you are going to put 100,000 in investing, go for it, get a company, but if you are trying to invest less than 10,000 then I say don't tell anybody and keep it in a safe 😉 or you can also put it in a box at the bank.
I agree with your last point, if you invest in a stock, index fund, or ETF you're going through a 3rd party. So there is always some level of risk. I think we put some special value on things that are tangible, like being able to hold a gold coin vs an ETF which basically exists digitally. I'm guilty of this myself, I think dividend paying stocks are wonderful because the dividend is physical cash and it's easy to understand where it came from. However, that might not always be the best option for maximizing your money. It can be difficult to remove ourselves from the physical bias we have on these things. Either way, great video Nathan, you really have been doing a lot of research. Like-20!
Yes totally. Nearly everything we buy involves a 3rd party right. But so many people will only every buy the physical only for gold. Thanks for watching mate!
I never used to like ETFs as gold bigs warned me away...but I actually think they can make sense in certain situations...same with PAXG... as a concept it makes sense...and if the fees are lower than ETFs then I would be happy...it is still backed by gold but without the hassle. Each situation matters...if you only have 1-2 ounces then in your hand is great...if you have 50+ then it makes sense :)
@@NathanHQ fully agree with you there Nathan ! It all comes down to the individual! The reason I like physical is the very reason another might not! All about your circumstance 👍 cheers for the reply!
Really good break down Nathan! I do like the sound of physical gold in my hands. But I also dislike have to pay for storage fee that why I like Gold ETF as well. Thumbs up 👍👍
Great presentation Nathan! Nothing like holding physical gold in your hands, but like you mention, ETF is a more efficient way to hold gold value but with limited 3rd party risk. I personally trade a couple gold ETF's but if I want longer term gold exposure, I prefer doing it through Barrick Gold (GOLD) even though correlation to gold prices is about .60, I get paid a small dividend holding Barrick. But that is just a personal preference, I think holding physical gold and a gold ETF can be great ways to diversify into metals. Nice job with the video. Cheers!
When I look at articles of past performance of gold, when interest rates begin to rise gold begins to drop and that includes ETF's. Correct me if I'm wrong.
The question is: why you're buying gold? Are you doing this because you want to preserve value of your money in case of some recesion? Or you believe that there will be some kind of zombie apocalypse, all financial institutions will be gone, and people will be fighting for food or other basic commodities?
Loved the explanation and artwork as always Nathan. I personally own a little bit of GLD in my all-weather portfolio and it's just so convenient to consolidate all your investments in one type account. Instant buy/sell even with that slight premium to the bullion. Great vid!
Hey Mate, Great breakdown - I plan on never taking possession of the Gold so I choose to invest in ETFs. Some ETFs are based on the futures or spot price per oz so if you ever want to take possession it's best to check in advance. L#21
You can actually dollar cost average using etf, and when you reach 1oz worth of gold, you can trade your etf for the real thing (by selling your etf and buying gold at the same time of course)
Really good breakdown! it is very clear and clean. I am looking into buying Gold ETFs so this was a very helpful video. Would love to hear more about the different types of ETFs for gold and what to look out for when investing. Great video Nathan!
Awesome video Nathan! My one remaining question is what happens to the value of a holding in a gold ETF if everyone starts panicking and selling off their holdings? Specifically if they start selling their gold ETF holdings? Does the value of your own holding dip because of these sell offs or does it just stay fixed to the commodity price of gold? Thanks in advance!
Hi - The NAV price and the Fund Price may differ slightly when there are more buyers and sellers but not to a large degree. Hope this helps - www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/052815/what-difference-between-etfs-net-asset-value-nav-and-its-market-price.asp
there one other slight issue with a gokd etf and that is u dont actually own any gold and good luck getting any gold in your hands from your etf....what u do have however is a piece of paper....etfs are only good if u want to and are able to afford a gamble...

Going physical is safer and makes it funner too.

@@NathanHQ fully agree with you there Nathan ! It all comes down to the individual! The reason I like physical is the very reason another might not! All about your circumstance 👍 cheers for the reply!
You didn't say what ETF stands for
Really good break down Nathan! I do like the sound of physical gold in my hands. But I also dislike have to pay for storage fee that why I like Gold ETF as well. Thumbs up 👍👍
Great summary. Thanks mate. Speak soon!
I love gold lol thanks for sharing definitely gave me something to think about 😊 new friend here
Glad you enjoyed. Thanks :) speak soon!
Great presentation Nathan! Nothing like holding physical gold in your hands, but like you mention, ETF is a more efficient way to hold gold value but with limited 3rd party risk. I personally trade a couple gold ETF's but if I want longer term gold exposure, I prefer doing it through Barrick Gold (GOLD) even though correlation to gold prices is about .60, I get paid a small dividend holding Barrick. But that is just a personal preference, I think holding physical gold and a gold ETF can be great ways to diversify into metals. Nice job with the video. Cheers!
Yes the stocks are great too and Barrick is a great choice. Thanks for sharing mate!
How to invest in ETF Gold?
Ikr. Same here. Wish we could also have a more personal relationship with the video creator. I need his mentorship real bad
Good video Nathan! Gold is important for sure and your breakdown of both options is fantastic so thank you! Keep up the good work!
Thanks Lucas. Much appreciated! Speak soon!
When I look at articles of past performance of gold, when interest rates begin to rise gold begins to drop and that includes ETF's. Correct me if I'm wrong.
The question is: why you're buying gold? Are you doing this because you want to preserve value of your money in case of some recesion? Or you believe that there will be some kind of zombie apocalypse, all financial institutions will be gone, and people will be fighting for food or other basic commodities?
Loved the explanation and artwork as always Nathan.
I personally own a little bit of GLD in my all-weather portfolio and it's just so convenient to consolidate all your investments in one type account.
Instant buy/sell even with that slight premium to the bullion.
Great vid!
Thanks for sharing mate!
Hey Mate, Great breakdown - I plan on never taking possession of the Gold so I choose to invest in ETFs.
Some ETFs are based on the futures or spot price per oz so if you ever want to take possession it's best to check in advance.

Thanks for sharing mate!
Hey, guys! I've been reading a lot about gold investments lately. What do you think about it?
Hi Nathan, what do you think about something like dollar-cost-averaging strategy for gold on monthly/quarterly basis?
Generally, DCA in to any valuable investments over the long-term is a very smart thing to do
You can actually dollar cost average using etf, and when you reach 1oz worth of gold, you can trade your etf for the real thing (by selling your etf and buying gold at the same time of course)
Really good breakdown! it is very clear and clean. I am looking into buying Gold ETFs so this was a very helpful video. Would love to hear more about the different types of ETFs for gold and what to look out for when investing. Great video Nathan!
Yes, good idea. Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
This a really great video, with a lot of interesting information. This has been very helpful. Thanks for sharing 😀
Glad you enjoyed it! Speak soon! 🙂
Awesome video Nathan! My one remaining question is what happens to the value of a holding in a gold ETF if everyone starts panicking and selling off their holdings? Specifically if they start selling their gold ETF holdings? Does the value of your own holding dip because of these sell offs or does it just stay fixed to the commodity price of gold? Thanks in advance!
Hi - The NAV price and the Fund Price may differ slightly when there are more buyers and sellers but not to a large degree. Hope this helps - www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/052815/what-difference-between-etfs-net-asset-value-nav-and-its-market-price.asp
@@NathanHQ Thanks for the quick response. ETF it is for me then!
Love this. I think Gold is an essential part of anyones portfolio, I personally hold it split between etf and coins
Yes a split seems to make sense for gold. I have the silver version coming out today and the numbers are very different. Thanks mate. Speak soon!
What if the system shuts down 👇🏽 and you have 4.5 million ETF 😮
there one other slight issue with a gokd etf and that is u dont actually own any gold and good luck getting any gold in your hands from your etf....what u do have however is a piece of paper....etfs are only good if u want to and are able to afford a gamble...
