    Gold at $2,500+ is too expensive to buy now

    Look, I'm going to say what everyone's thinking but afraid to say: Gold IRAs are boomer advice that doesn't apply to millennials.

    I'm 32. I have 30+ years until retirement. Why would I lock up money in gold that historically returns 8% when I could be in index funds returning 10-12%?

    The math doesn't add up. Gold is for people scared of their own shadow, not for young investors with time horizons.

    Change my mind.

    Ngl I came here expecting the usual affiliate spam but the discussions are actually decent. Way better info than what I was getting from my old advisor.

    I keep going back and forth between gold and silver allocations. The gold-to-silver ratio right now is making silver look attractive.

    I was pretty skeptical about another gold IRA forum but the tools here on GIRAB actually surprised me β€” the calculator alone saved me hours of spreadsheet work.

    Interesting take. I've heard the opposite from a few people though β€” would love to see some actual numbers on this.
