where is the best place to buy gold in canada? | is it a good idea to invest at its peak? seems like a better idea to offload gold you already own?

^well the idea is that its not coming down as long as inflation continues to rise.
and it looks like thats going to happen with the us printing so much money.

^ Who needs to print money when you could just enter extra zeros in the computer. Which is what they do now anyway.  | |

VBCE also has a richmond branch. when i was purchasing from them the main branch on broadway had none in stock and was taking orders on a minimum purchase of five 1oz coins.
called up richmond, they were lucky to have 5 in stock and i grabbed them.. this was last november.

The world has lost faith in USD. Gold seems like it's going to be the world currency like the old days.

The main use of gold is jewelry and with the recession who's buying that?
I have a feeling gold prices are artificially high and will crash soon.

look at peter schiffs track record. he was right about alot of things over years. gold took alot of bumps and bruises this year. it took forever to break the 930/oz barrier this year and once it did it was a slow climb up.
thanks to this man, my gold investment is up 38% as of today in only one year. gold is a long term investment and is safer than playing the stock marker...but where there is risk, there is reward. so i have to say what better low risk method is there? you wont get the same from any bank.

The gold price has slumped after surprisingly good US unemployment data sent the US dollar higher, making gold a less attractive investment.
Gold fell more than $65, or 5%, to $1,161.4 an ounce, down from a record high of $1,226.56 in early trading. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/8396542.stm
