I don't own gold right now mostly because of the price. Even though I have read pricing speculations of around $1,200 - $1,400 an ounce as projected highs I am skeptical of those prices.

I do own a precious metals mutual fund that is doing very well and does have about 1/3 of it invested in gold companies. My suggestion is that you might want to look at a mutual fund or even buying stock in some gold mining companies. A mutual fund would give you some protection with the gold pricing changes we have been seeing recently.
