asked:
I want to know the nuts and bolts of investing in gold. I heard that there are laws that make federal reserve notes “irredeemable” in gold. Do i have to exchange currency and buy gold in say Europe? Is this something any broker can do, or is it better to get with a specific kind of broker?

The money I have to invest is understood to be “losable”, and I know how volatile gold is, but I want to buy now because I think its going to up quite a bit pretty soon. Im not going to invest anything I cant afford to lose.
Thanks
