A Maple Leaf gold coin is a pretty small thing to behold, and I find myself enamored by their beauty. There’s just something about holding a handful these coins in your hand that invokes a sense of prosperity and satisfaction with the things you’ve got in life.
But all this philosophical rambling aside, a Maple Leaf gold coin collection isn’t just a total waste of money on some soft and arty material. It is a rock-solid investment which will last for years on end.
I’m sure some money aide out there will argue that stuff like hedge funds or some other form of investment in the money market will bring you enormous returns on the market. And it is probably true, since these high-risk investments yield high returns.
Assuming everything in the economy works fine.
Just look around the globe. Heck, even my neighbor foreclosing his home is a solid example of how unstable the money market can be. Millionaires got reduced to beggars in a matter of months as their money assets all turned to putty in the face of the financial crisis.
Gold, on the other hand, still maintained its powerful purchasing power through the years. A Maple Leaf gold coin collection could be worth less than it was before in this market, but its value still holds merit in this market and it will only rise up again when the economy recovers. Add to that the fact that gold matches and even surpasses the inflation rate, and you’ve a foolproof investment to help along in retirement.
