Yes it will... No doubt about that.
There might be hiccups along the way but price will always go up.
When 1gram of gold cost rm30+, i was in form 5.
When I started working, the price is already at rm60+...
Got my 1st piece of serious gold jewellery at rm80+ a little over 3 years back.
Now? Its like rm174 per gram...

i'm studying the risk vs return on those gold bar trading companies...
there are many gold bar traders with guaranttee buy back in the town...

recently i met a malaysian in myanmar, he recently setting up a gold bar processing factory there
he is one of the owner of gold bar trading company in KL and singapore

since he joined me play badminton, so i have the chance to find out more bout this gold bar trade lor
and more so the gold price went up crazily

so i wonder y ppl buy gold from all this small trader instead of banks like me!!!

There are plenty of ppl trading in gold bars.
There's Geneva Gold bars and etc...
Buy the gold at a certain price and guarantee buy back at a certain price after a certain time.
But for me... this reeks of skim cepat kaya... there's no way we can verify those gold bars and for all I know, they could coat 1mm gold outside of a piece of aluminium or stainless steel.
I would go for gold jewellery... 2 uses... to wear and to invest...
When you wanna turn it into a bar, just melt it... plenty of tukang emas sifu could do that.
Thats my point of view on gold though...
I have never invested in gold accounts thru banks and such so I am not sure how it works...
I ahve invested thru public banks mutual balanced fund and the return per year was not satisfactory, and I needed money to renovate my new house so I withdrew after 1 year... and I realized all the gold jewellery I had actually +30% in "value" a little over a year...

Actually, do these jewellery shops like PohKong, Tomei, WahChan & etc sell gold bar, apart from the usual jewelleries? ???
Ya they do sell gold bar/bullion 999 or 916
