    i see that goldcore have a saving scheme for gold where you can invest as little as 150 a month... what would the return be like on that.

    have you bought or used the schemes before???
    would it be better to invest in silver or gold??

    i see you can also buy silver certificates and silver coins etc, any advice on this welcome

    didnt even know that site was there until you pointed it out.

    Would you all stop pushing gold! See my post from this thread about gold. € briefly hit 1.35 today in trading even with the downgrade news.

    Don't buy GLD unless your wages are in $.

    Sir,

    Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Mine is agianst yours. I beleive in current economic climate for every investor physical gold is must. I have about 7% of my portfolio as gold and 10% is silver.. However i agree with $/€ rational. It might sound crazy to you but wait for gold to go over $ 2500 within two years...and physical is physical..

    good luck..

    Opinion is great but the market deals with fact and today's are ::

    GLD -127.74 +1.02 (0.80%)
    EURUSD -1.35683 / 1.35693 +0.01145 (0.85%)

    This is with the constant negative news from Europe. The Germans will take a lot to break and the markets know that.

    Can you not buy and sell gold in Euro or is it always linked to $?

    It's a $ denominated commodity, like most commodities. If the US debases its currency then commodities rise against the currency. What people must understand is that not all currencies will fall in lock step. € is not being debased, until the Germans decide printing is good there is no point in buying commodities. € is rallying strongly versus the $ at the moment so as someone with €s the best trading move for you at the moment is to do nothing.

    I would not be surprised to see 1.50 EURUSD by year end. Depends on Portugal as Ireland has done the right things, so far.

    so baschically , because the dollar is on a continous slide against the euro , even gold was 3000 dollars an ounce , joe bloggs in dublin who bought at 1000 euro per ounce , might see no real gains

    Sounds like a properly functioning market to me. Supply and demand working exactly like it should.

    With regards the gold appreciating and been priced in dollars... Gold has gone from €700 to currently €950 in the last year alone...
    Its broken the €1000 mark and to me looks like its creeping up again!!

    Its broken the €1000 mark and to me looks like its creeping up again!!
    Gone past 1000 euro again:http://www.goldprice.org/live-gold-price.html

    Edit:http://www.zealllc.com/2010/eg1000.htm This helps clarify the exchange rate situation somewhat.

    Check to see if gainesVilleCoins.com ships to Ireland. Buy US Buffalo - mint states in the wrap, not the proofs. Something like this.
