Investing in precious metals is no more profitable vastly. Although looking at the speculation, it's not advisable to invest the Bill Gates way where you wait months together to earn a maximum of 5-10 margin.

Investing in Technology is a boom and one can reap significant profits if invested carefully by understanding the innovative practice of technology.

Not that I don't support investing in earth metal, but it had its day for a while and now it's time to move up and invest in virtual world.

 

Hope this helps!

Thank you for the invite Mr. Diab

I personally think it's a safe investment, so if you're looking for a small ROI and are not eager to take chances the next 6 months is okay to invest in both.

I don't think that investing in precious metals is something "investors" should do. There are a million other places that you could place your money as an investor, precious metals not being one of them.

Hi! Despite the fact that the post is quite old, the question is really relevant today. I see more advantages of this type of investment than disadvantages. First of all, you should understand that this type of investment is mostly designed to protect your money rather than earn money, or there is an option to increase wealth, but only in the long term. For a better understanding, I recommend reading this article https://ventsmagazine.com/2022/04/11/investing-in-gold-advantages-and-disadvantages-and-helpful-tips/ . It is about the pros and cons of investing in precious metals.

There is no question of 'investing' in precious metals. It is not an investment because it is speculative in nature. 'Investors' should never take positions in precious metals
