Investment Is Good

One of my college mates used to tell me that if I have saved enough money, I should try to invest in gold coin than putting the money in the bank. For one thing, gold is an international form of investment, it is accepted globally whereas our currency is based on our own country's economy. He added that investors generally buy gold as a hedge against any economic, or currency-based crises. He seems to know so much about these type of crisis that includes investment market declines, currency failure and even inflation.However, he advised me that before I really invest in some solid foundation, it is best that I read more in the websites whereby there are some dedicated professionals to monitor our investment. It always pay to read and get more knowledge before we make our final decision and not to invest in anything hastily.
