You've been severely brainwashed if you believe gold will get to $5k. But that's how gold salesmen work, it's how people sell things, they often overpromise the upside and minimise the downside.

I mean, you wouldn't buy an investment if the salesmen promised you'd halve your money in the next 5 years, would you? Gold's like a religion, many even think it's 'money', which it obviously isn't, but that's because they've been told so many times it is.
Gold isn't 'money', it's a piece of metal and its economic relevance is declining as time goes on.
