    There are two sides to that story.

    There is not enough gold to match the increases in both population and productivity of the last 70 years, and you don’t want just a handful of people holding gold that spikes in value through the roof.

    Smart people invest in companies that pay dividends. Speculators invest in… whatever, tulip bulbs.
