Gold As A Heritage Gift
The
heritage and history of a longtime gold holding has
helped to cement families, empires, and nations. Just
as a nations’ gold reserve
serves as backing to its currency, a family holding of
gold assembled during times of prosperity can be passed
down to trusted family members and held for the potential
benefit of anyone in the family.
Ideally, this family holding of gold is quietly
and privately held, and never disturbed as it passes from generation to
generation. In fact, no other form of wealth, be it currency, stocks,
bonds, or funds, can be so passively held with no thought of loss
whatsoever. Only gold survives any potential downturn or upheaval, and
only gold is the absolute permanent store of value that weathers all
storms.
A
gold holding is the ultimate form of "old
money." It is not money at work, invested, or out on interest. It is
money itself, made physical and permanent. Gold is one of the few
certainties in this world – a no-maintenance form of wealth
that lasts forever.
Once
the decision and commitment to gold is made, it becomes
an established part of the family finances, and is not
to be casually disturbed. From that point on, there
arises a strong family obligation to future generations – and that obligation is "Don’t
sell the gold!" Gold itself, brilliant, beautiful,
compels its owner not to let it go.
Properly
done, the acquisition of gold becomes a permanent form
of family insurance, its stewardship passing
from generation to generation.
