Gold IRA: Feeling good about my choices with this inflation mess

Honestly, seeing these inflation numbers every month just makes me so grateful I pulled the trigger on my Gold IRA a couple of years ago. I remember having so many doubts, especially with all the noise about tech stocks still going up. But my financial advisor in Seattle kept telling me to diversify, and I really wanted something more stable than just stocks and bonds for my retirement.
I put in about $75k initially, doing a rollover from an old 401k. As a nurse, my schedule is pretty demanding, so I don't have a ton of time to be constantly checking market fluctuations. The idea of having a tangible asset, something that's historically been a hedge against economic uncertainty, just clicked for me. Now, with groceries costing an arm and a leg and gas prices insane, it feels like a really smart move. My portfolio isn't suffering nearly as much as some of my friends' are, who are all in on the conventional stuff.
Anyone else feeling this sense of relief about their gold investments right now amidst all this economic craziness? Or are there still some skeptics out there? I mean, I know it's not going to make me a millionaire overnight, but the peace of mind knowing I have some security for my retirement savings is really invaluable.
