If you look at gold for the last 10/11 years, gold is up 10% or a little more. If you bought meta/Tesla within the last 6 months, you are up 100% in meta and Tesla is up close to that.
I would not buy gold from anybody on those commercials, I would buy a fund of gold or silver.
It's not too hard to look up gold prices before you guess at a number. Try Google or Goldprice.org

It's up about 44% in the past 10 years, not 10%. That's a little more than inflation over that timeframe.

Missed by quite a bit on Tesla too...
