I am disabled and on a very tight fixed income, however I have about $4,000 in savings and am interested in investing it in gold, but I don't even know the first place to start. My first question is if I DO buy a little gold, what happens to my money/investment if the value/price goes down? Someone told me if I leave it alone, don't touch it and don't sell, my money won't be 'lost' as long as I sit it out until the price/value goes back up and THEN I can sell it and gain a profit. Is this true? Thanks SO much and I hope to get plenty of input on this!
