Loading ...Food for thought, 1980 $800/oz of Gold peak, Houses were $40,000 divided by $800/oz gold came out to 50 ounces of gold to buy a house.
A gold peak today peak today at $8,000/oz, times 50 ounces would be $400,000 for house a very low price of a house these days in my area.
There were really no ETFs back then for gold that I know of.
