      Well actually that's not true you can definitely cut one ounce of gold off of your bar and you would sell it for spot price I mean why would you tell people that have to bring the whole thing in itself back again and lose money that makes no sense. An ounce of scrap gold is worth an ounce of scrap gold gold is gold and sure there's a premium we're not talking about premiums we're talking about cutting a chunk of gold off the gold if gold is going for $1,800 an ounce in the premium for a coin might be $1,900 you can definitely cut a chunk of gold 1 oz off of your brick and go get 1800 bucks for it spot price

    Currently, the 1oz goes for $2029 and the 10g goes for $2036/oz.
    as I told my parents, if gold does go to $50000 then it would be hard enough to find someone with $16,077 to buy your 10g bar;
    you might even want a 2g bar for every three 10g bars you buy, just to have some added liquidity.

    I would say it also depends on your exit strategy. If you're selling back to a dealer I would agree, buying as close to spot is the best option. But I have bought and sold a fair few 1g gold bars, and I've always got my premium back, and often more than if I'd bought an ounce rather than 31 separate grams. Lots of people are happy to buy £50 of gold, there are fewer customers with £1400 spare in the circles I move in

    2:25 that's exactly why you want to buy the bigger bars. You find other ways around those problems rather than sell at first impulse. And if you do need to sell you can always buy smaller bars back and/or consider buying a different metal that is now at a more favorable ratio.

    Gold Rings is the key! I’ve heard many stories with people in Venezuela and Argentina say rings saved their lives. One said if you go to exchange a 1 oz bar you will be targeted but trading gold rings for instant cash was the norm and that makes a lot of sense to me I’ll make some of my bars to 24k gold rings

      @Blake you need to research Venezuela and Argentina the first thing Murduro did when he came into power was ban ownership of legal guns so only the criminals had guns also even the gold dealers aren't to be trusted these situations are very extreme and desperate even tho you might have a gun there are gangs that will be happy to murder you for a oz of gold i mean they killed a family for a fruit Tree in their own yard in Venezuela this is real life.

    Not trying to sound condescending (I understand that sometimes people lose their jobs) but if you need to sell your gold to afford to fix your car, maybe you should not be buying it in quantities that would require you to sell it.
