Why is Jewelry a Good Investment




They say gold jewelry has been in existence since time immemorial. It dates back as far as 4000 B.C. The affluent society of Ancient Egypt wore gold jewelry to show wealth and power. Ancient Greeks wore these to symbolize upper class wealth. In Ancient China, it is said to protect wearers. During pre-colonial Philippines, datus and their wives adorned themselves with gold and jewelry. Even belts were woven from gold wires making it more elaborate. Indeed, gold and jewelry has been part of mankind even before history was written. 

JEWELRY IS A GOOD INVESTMENT


In our family, it is my mom who loves collecting gold and jewelry. I remember when we were kids, some neighbors would approach her and pawn their jewelry-and if it is gold and she has some savings to spare, expect her to get it. She'd say it's a good investment because it maintains its value over time even when the market is fluctuating. On occasions when it was hard to make ends meet, my mom's gold and jewelry had been our saving grace.


Here are other reasons why it is a good investment:


  • Gold can easily be converted into cash anywhere in the world.
  • During inflation, gold rises in value. It is a much stable investment in cash.
  • It's an investment that you can wear and also sells at a profit. It can work as an emergency stash for a rainy day.
  • Gold jewelry also survives deflation. Deflation is when the economy is burdened by excessive debt and slow business activities. Its value continues to soar while other prices decreased sharply. 

HOW TO BUY GOLD JEWELRY


It is important to buy authentic items from reputable sources and reliable suppliers. I'm sure most of you has come across online sellers but you have to be wary of scammers. There are reputable stores in malls and you can also check those stalls in Binondo if you're looking for one. Some buys abroad and others deal with private traders and antique collectors.
