Does anyone know any guaranteed short term investments at the time?

another question...

Due to the dollars uncertainty and the rapid increase in the value of oil I'm thinking about converting my money into gold.


Does anyone know where to buy gold at face value?

Gold may rise in price, but I think you have missed the boat.

not true. gold is pretty much the only commodity in the world that only stays the same/ goes up in value.....over long periods of time that is.

overall, unless you have like 100k just sitting in the bank, its not worth the $-gold conversion.....afterall, you cant walk in to walmart and buy somthing with a sack of gold.

if you do have plenty of extra cash, that you KNOW you wont need for a fairly long ammount of time (20 years or so) you might as well put it into gold. it wont be as big of an investment as say, playing the stock market, but its much more safe

Yes, but the question asked for a short term investment, which usually means less than one year.

true, but he said the gold question was a whole seperate question. which is why i assumed he didnt mean the gold was a short term thing.
