When I got married, I remember we bought several titanium rings. Back in those days, Titanium was always pricier than gold. So I was shocked to see that Gold’s run up in price had reduced Titanium to the less expensive status. I still loved the shiny nature, but Titanium isn’t soft like 24K gold. In the…
Today there was speculation on CNBC about the commodities bubble being over. It’s true that Gold prices have gone down dramatically in the past few weeks, even after gold sales in Asia remain strong. But what about Silver? The price of silver has dropped from $35 to approximately $24 now, so it might seem a…
Gold prices have taken a swoon recently. No surprises why. The economy is beginning to show signs of life: housing is improving, unemployment seems to be falling slowly, commodities are coming off their highest prices, and things seem to be beginning to happen in Washington. There’s still some way to go on many issues, including…
We got a lot of gold (well, we think it is a LOT!) when we got married but it wasn’t a lot! But with the recent crazy prices, we regret we didn’t buy gold online when it was $300 an ounce! Now it’s more like $1700! Ouch! The real trick is to decide whether the…

The Gold Price is tempting a lot of people to melt down their gold jewelry (perhaps even their Juneau jewelry) to exchange it for cash. And, there are a lot of people expecting us to test the gold price highs of US$2000 per oz. So if you are lucky, buying good quality jewelry may be…
Ever tried to buy buy gold online? I’ve been tempted by different forms of e-gold in the past, but always relented because I couldn’t verify the person I was buying from actually had any gold. That’s the problem with online deals.. really. You never get to see the real thing before you buy it!
Last Mother’s Day, I proposed giving some flowers to my mother in law! I thought it was a great idea to buy some same day flowers just to get really fresh flowers… The wife said: Don’t. Why? Because apparently my m-i-l wouldn’t particularly appreciate them and think they were a waste of money! So we…
