Gold Buying Guide

Spanzel asked:


I don’t understand the hype of buying gold all of a sudden. Sorry, I don’t watch the news much and don’t keep up on the mineral stocks. Why are companies all of a sudden buying gold. Please explain this to me. Thanks in advance.

I am thinking about buying some but have some drawbacks. Thanks in advance for your answer this is very important to me I hope for educated detailed answers or maybe a site I can learn from.

Is it better to buy gold or silver?

Is gold and silver expensive or cheap to buy right now? How much?

I don’t want to get ripped off and pay too much. How much should I pay? And where is the best place to get it for the best price? Where is the best place to get it that you can trust like maybe it is not pure gold or something?
Specifically I am wondering how much the price can fluctuate. For instance is the price of gold dictated by inflation and if so how much will the dollars inflate/ deflate?
