Last year I inherited some money from a distant relative who had died in a car accident. I had never met the person, but our parents were very good friends, and this person didnt have a family so she chose me as the inheritor. I was quite surprised to get the money and had no idea what to do with it. Actually, various things crossed my mind. Why not waste it now when Im young? Why not travel around the world? But of course it would have been stupid to do so. Last winter I visited a small village in the mountains. There I met a young man who had invested his money in gold bullion. He had won some money in a competition and then somebody advised him to buy bullion bars and just wait till gold becomes more valuable. He did so, and got a large sum of money in a short period of time. Well, I thought that maybe I could invest in gold bullion, too. I called my uncle who lives in Dublin. Hes an experienced investor. He advised me not to buy gold from unknown sources and recommended me a friend of his, also an investor, who could sell me some gold bullion. I immediately contacted the person and bought a couple of good quality bars from her. I hope it will help me get more money in the future. Im actually going to travel to India or China when Im older.
