Gold is a yellow metal that I can kept in a safety deposit box or around a loved ones neck. Gold mines have led men astray since King Solomons mines, gold is the icon of safety ....real money since pre history. Gold mines the icon of folly, treachery, riches and ruin since money began.
You can argue about the merits of gold mines and gold companies forever.
Well gold comes from miners, If one picks the right shares, then mining shares are better - though should have both physical and quality proven Gold shares though.
Treachery & fools Gold is not unique just in the mining sector, many banks & bank stocks and many ASX Companies have fallen over, there are sharks in every corporate pool.
Invest carefully and dont lose money is the general saying.
