Gold is a precious metal par excellence and a very popular savings product. Gold is an age-old investment that many investors find very reliable. This is mainly due to the representation of a universal value that is less dependent on financial fluctuations.

It is no coincidence that the majority of French people consider the yellow metal to be a safe investment. However, despite this, for a large number of them, investing in gold is reserved for the wealthy.

And when it comes to buying gold, the large budget required to acquire the yellow metal comes to mind. If this is true for the value of a kilo of gold bullion, which reaches several tens of thousands of euros, it is nevertheless possible to acquire gold with a smaller purse.

In fact, despite this preconceived idea, buying gold can suit all budgets and is not reserved for the very wealthy. Today, having a few hundred euros at one's disposal is sufficient to convert one's money into gold bars or coins. There are a large number of offers on the market that allow you to acquire gold at a lower cost.

This is particularly true for the purchase of coins such as the 20 Franc Napoleon which can be bought for around 300 euros. The same applies to gold bars ranging from 1g to 1kg. These investment products do not, by definition, provide any income. However, they do allow for significant capital gains on resale if the price of gold rises.

Beyond buying gold, buying silver for all budgets is also an excellent solution. Silver is not as popular as the yellow metal, but it is no less interesting. The price of gold and silver are often parallel. When the price of gold rises, the price of silver also rises.

Less expensive than its big brother, silver can also be bought, either in the form of silver coins or silver ingots, some of which can be bought for a few hundred euros. For example, a 500g silver ingot is around 400 euros.

These two precious metals are therefore accessible to all budgets. And selling the gold or silver in which you have invested could bring you a substantial profit in the medium and long term.
