- The annual turn of gold over 10 years has been higher than that of inflation, which shows that gold gives individuals a real rate of return.
- Gold is highly liquid. This means selling gold is much easier than selling stocks in your brokerage account, or selling real estate.
- However, not all gold can be liquidated. But you can also mortgage them for loans. Sometimes, banks and many other financial institutions provide loan against them in times of emergency.
