I never buy gold. I buy anything when necessary. As regards investment, I deposit mainly in bank. I consider gold as useless. This has no real value and utility. The irrational craze for the yellow metal and traditions only give this value.

But I think gold is the best form of investment, following land. Of all loans, gold loan has least interest. If you are not interesting in buying ornaments, it's really great. You can save making charges. Yet, golden bars can never be placed in banks for loans. I understood it now only. :(

One point to be added. At my marriage in 2006, 8 gm gold cost only below 6000. Now it has reached 22,000 (8gms = 1 pavan). Is it not a good form of investment???

I don't say that gold has no value. As long as there is demand, this will have value. But this has no real utility and the value is because of unreasonable and traditional lure for the yellow metal.

I dislike piercing of body parts. So, piercing of ears and nose or may be some other parts for ornaments is very disgusting to me. May be women like to bear the pain of piercing.

Women without ear rings.......never look great.
How much pain a woman has to suffer whole through her life. Just 'ear piercing' is nothing. :laugh: :laugh:

I can understand the natural labor pains. But why the deliberate pain like piercing of nose, ears and other parts and loading the body with unnecessary burden of yellow metal. If you derive pleasure in such pain, this may be masochistic tendency.

[quote]Actually I never wear gold ornaments except my 'Mangal soothra'... (What is it called in English?)and anklet. Years back I stopped wearing bangles and even wedding ring.I want my hands to be free, even if it's a function. Ear rings also, never use gold. At home, I never wear ear rings. Actually, our parents give us lot of golden ornaments at wedding. But the sad part is that we never use them except bangles. I have used a necklace only once in my life along with my 'thali', for a function (except wedding). Never...after that. I always wonder why ladies wear necklaces along with thalis ...also 5-10 bangles. I want to be simple
