Gold or mutual funds?

Mutual funds. Gold is a fine storehouse of value, but the return sucks.

gold is crap. long term gold has done and will do wayyy worse than actual stocks.

gold has no earnings.

it's only actual use is maybe 5% of a portfolio of a retired person.

take this tip... as soon as "everyone is doing it" its time to stop...
thats the rule.

Gold is a good investment if the economy is going down the tube and the dollar doesn't worth as much. But mutual funds is a better choice for long term investment. As the economy grow and the dollar is getting stronger, the market will follow that trend. If you look at a long range average on stock market, there is no comparison. Just as long you don't cash in when the market goes down (example: during 911 a lot of people said they lost a lot of money, why? because they cashed in the stocks for fear that the economy was going to collapse like the 1929 crash. But, if they would just leave it alone, as you see where the market is today.) It is best to diversify your portfolios and never put all your eggs in one basket.

Once you spend some time learning about investing you'll realize how ridiculous this question is.

If you have to ask this question I'd suggest neither. Spend a year learning this stuff.... then look at your question again.

BTW: Further proof that you know nothing about investing;
You ask strangers with no idea who they are, what their qualifications are or what their motives are.... an important question about "your" money. That's not too cool. It's not to smart.

Invest..... don't gamble. Read. Learn.

You would not want gold in your hands at all. IAu is an etf that holds physicla gold. Less theft risk & lower transaction cost. Should have both in that should have gold etf or mutual fund along with other funds like ADX PEO EFA EWA PGJ Not an either or.

You would rather invest in mutual funds instead of gold! You would rather have gold in physical form and have it in your hands.

If you are just starting, gold is not the place to be. Gold can be a vehicle to diversify your investments, as it doesn't usually move with the rest of the market, but it's not really an asset in the sense that it generates any type of future revenue stream. With mutual funds you are buying a piece of real businesses with the opportunity to create a growing revenue stream (i.e. more money in the future). Gold can be attractive because it can be something of a hedge against the things that cause the stock market to drop, but is not the place to start your investments.

I had to sell mine, unfortunately, but you should have a certain percentage of gold.
