Deciding how much to invest

Deciding how much to invest in gold can be tricky for newcomers. But with our easy guide you’ll be an expert in no time.

As a general rule – the longer you leave your money in gold the more likely you are to make profit, the less risky the investment and the greater your profit will be. Therefore we recommend investing any money you are not planning on spending in the next 12 months or longer. (The longer the better). For more on this point, take a look at our gold investment hints and tips section.

Here are some examples of common investment quantities, along with the expected growth.
