I have dreamt of the same dream twice. It wasn’t the same house, my parents’, but the same scenario. But the second one was worse than the first. I looked it up for an interpretation and was surprised to read someone’s dream shared in the site to be almost same with mine.

I guess I was just worried for my parents’ security. My mother jokingly told me that my father does not keep his bullions at home. Not that he has one. He collects gold coins but not bullions. Plus, he trusts the bank too much as storage for the more precious ones rather than have them at home.

My father has started teaching my brothers how to collect gold coins, and also handed them some of his collection. My two brothers have started buying investment products, and it only makes sense for him to share his learnings as a coin collector.

My mom on the other hand, collects jewelry, so she understands my father’s passion well. In fact, I think their collections are complimentary. Both are good investment products which will last more than a lifetime, and can be passed on from one generation to another.

But in my parents’ case, they plan to use it to secure their not so distant future, say in a year or two.

A close friend has advised us to buy gold bullion now. According to him, these times should be the best time for us to consider investing on gold. We for quite some time now, have been contemplating on this. He’s convincing us saying that gold’s beauty lies not only on its physical form, but also on its diversity as an investment. It’s another way of preserving one’s purchasing power.

He said that our daughter (and possibly future child/ren) will greatly benefit from this investment in the future. Come to think of it, the reason we are investing now is for the future of our daughter. We want to secure her future, as well as for retirement, my husband’s and mine.

A friend has taught me how to compare life insurance quotes from different companies. So I had been confident with the life insurance that I got. I just want to be secured, no matter what. But of course, life is about taking risks which is why medium (and/or high) risk investments will be the next.

Someone advised me that if I want to invest on stocks, I should consider investing on local ones as this would help our economy. It would be your “contribution” to the country. Plus, he said that I should study the trends carefully. I laughed saying that I’d buy only those that he buys. Yeah, I’m still not taking risks.

We are grateful that we weren’t directly affected by Typhoons Ondoy and Pepeng but our hearts are breaking how much everyone so near and we know were affected, one way or another. It is really true that everything happens in the blink of an eye and material things can get lost but what matters is what money cannot buy.

I realized that it really is better to have savings stocked for emergencies, especially since calamities have been happening one time or another. Friends have said gold is a wise investment as it never depreciates. It is pretty liquid too. I am not tied to premium coverage years if I need to sell it. Let’s see.
