The price of gold continues to rise, and many people are optimistic regarding the business opportunities and will buy it first to preserve its value. There is a female white-collar worker in Hangzhou, China. She has bought a “zodiac gold bar” every year since 2018. Just because of a joke from her best friend, unexpectedly, the same 100-gram gold bar has increased by nearly 20,000 compared to 6 years ago. (RMB, the same below), the price is regarding 50,000.
The woman revealed to the “Qianjiang Evening News” that during the 2018 Spring Festival, her best friend gave her a small gold bar weighing 5 grams, which meant “there is no insurance with gold”. Although it was just a joke, she took it to heart and went to the bank a few days later to do business. At that time, she happened to see gold bars with the zodiac sign of the Year of the Dog. The basic gold price was more than 270 yuan per gram. A 100-gram zodiac gold bar cost nearly 30,000 yuan. After thinking for two days, she decided to buy the gold bar. Since then, she has used her year-end bonus to buy a zodiac gold bar every year. From the Year of the Dog to the Year of the Rabbit, she has accumulated six gold bars so far.
What is astonishing is that the price of gold has been rising in the past six years, from more than 270 yuan to 480 yuan per gram. The current price of gold bars in the Year of the Dragon is 502 yuan. The woman said that not only had she had “money but no insurance” in recent years, but she had also had good fortune, with good things like promotions and salary increases coming true. Therefore, she planned to buy gold bars with the Year of the Dragon zodiac sign as soon as she received her year-end bonus.

Last month, the price of gold hit a new high. The retail price of gold in many jewelry stores exceeded 630 yuan per gram. The woman checked the gold recycling price and found that if she sold 7 gold bars, she might exchange for more than 330,000 yuan in cash. “I am both happy and regretful. The price of gold has risen so high, I really regret not buying enough gold bars in the past two years.” Especially from 2020 to 2022, the company’s foreign trade business has grown significantly every year, and the year-end bonus is also considerable, but it has not bought more gold bars. He said directly: “I regret it when I think regarding it!”
However, the woman does not intend to sell. If her financial ability allows, she will continue to buy zodiac gold bars to collect the 12 zodiac signs. Later, she may switch to ordinary investment gold bars. “The craftsmanship fee for zodiac gold bars exceeds 20 yuan per gram. It is purely from investment.” From this point of view, it is more cost-effective to buy gold bars with lower labor costs.”
