Been wanting to buy some gold lately even though gold prices have been on a tear in 2025 and it's currently trading around $3300 USD, up by more than 20% since the start of the year. Since I had some free time on my own last week, I recently decided to drop by Bullion Star and decided to buy a 2.5g Pamp gold bar
I started investing in gold bullion in 2023 by buying gold coins (0.1 Oz). The only reason I chose coins instead of bars that time was purely due to aesthetics reasons as the design of the coins look more attractive. But I have since purchased only PAMP gold bars (2.5g or 5g) as it's more cost effective. I know some prominent investors like Warren Buffet hate investing in gold as it's not a productive asset. But I decided to take a leaf out of Robert Kiyosaki’s advice by investing some money into “God’s Money”, even though I’m not a particular fan of his.
My philosophy towards financial independence is to take the wisdom of different investors and adjust them towards my risk appetite and personality. I’m not sure how you guys feel, but I just feel the world just seems to be getting crazier with Trump being the current US president and all the conflicts that are happening around us. Hence it is not surprising that central banks around the world have also been significantly increasing their gold purchases, where 1045 tonnes of gold were added to their reserves in 2024.
My target now is to achieve a gold portfolio of about $10,000 but currently I'm not even at the halfway mark 😂. It will take some time before I can reach the target but it's ok. With regards to my gold investment, I shall take one small step at a time and buy in greater bulk when there is a pullback in gold prices.
