1. Still happy with

gold overall. Three years ago, I convinced my dad to add 7
American Double Eagles to my trust fund. He thought I was nuts.
I kept at him and he reluctantly bought $2800.00 worth (7 coins)
and added them to the trust. Those 7 are now worth $3,983.00, a 42% increase in just three years. Nice part about gold is you can go to the safe deposit box and hold it!!!! Did the same with 150 1964 Kennedy
Halves back when silver was 5.50 an ounce. It's all just rainy day money that (hopefully) will never be used....but hey, beats the stock market!
