Buy Gold Bars

My husband likse to make invesmtne but he has NO idea what he is doing and it really gets me just so upset because he is taking money and just throwing it away half of the time. He doesn't know what he is doing and if you don't know how to play the stock market then you really shouldn't be doing it unless you have money to lose because that is exactly what you will be doing ... losing money. Why not make a solid investment and buy gold bars. These are things that are just going up in value and have been for centuries. Anyone that has had gold in their posession are always very well off because that is the basis of money. Why not invest in gold ... now rather than when it is really scarce.
