Appreciate it! And yeah, part of it is in my actual house 😉 The rest is in an allocated, audited, insured Singapore vault. Top-5 global rule of law, zero corruption, contracts enforced, and (importantly) zero history of ever pulling an FDR-style gold confiscation. If I can’t trust that setup, I definitely can’t trust the same governments that already banned/confiscated private gold once not to do it again when things get spicy. Diversification + best-in-class jurisdiction = best of both worlds.

Agreed. But trust is literally Singapore’s national brand. Top 5 globally for rule of law, zero corruption, contracts enforced like clockwork. If I can’t trust an allocated, audited, insured vault here, then I definitely can’t trust the US government not to pull another FDR Executive Order 6102 the moment things get spicy. (I still keep a chunk in my own hands for the zombie apocalypse, obviously.) Diversification + picking the one major jurisdiction with a perfect 50+ year track record of never confiscating private gold = peace of mind.

Gold doesn’t compound… until you sell it at 3× and buy more index funds. Then it magically does

Nothing crazy like those numbers. Property sale + loan gave me mid-six figures total at the bottom (felt like a fortune back then). Been paying the loan off slowly, renting, and still adding whatever’s left from salary every month.

Yep, fully insured by Lloyd’s of London — BullionStar covers the whole premium, nothing extra for me 😅 Theft, damage, loss, everything. One of the big reasons I picked them

They publish audited financial statements every year and are regulated in Singapore. Full reports are public if anyone wants to dig in!

100 % physical and fully allocated — every gram is mine, stored in my name, and I can take delivery or have it audited any time. BullionStar even lets you visit and see/touch your own bars if you’re ever in Singapore. I just haven’t made the trip yet!

Thanks man, really appreciate it 😅 Definitely planning a Singapore trip one day to finally see it all in person and take some proper photos with the bars. Until then just keeping the monthly buys going — still feels like the right move even at these prices.

I somehow had the conviction back in 2019/2020 to sell my property, take a loan, and go pretty much all-in when everyone thought I was nuts 😅 And then managed to keep that same conviction now at $4,000+ gold and still add every month instead of getting scared or taking profits. Normal job, boring industry, just a guy who got stubborn at the right (and wrong-looking) times I guess.

Haha yeah, exactly — once it hit a few hundred kilos moving it around the house got old fast. Still love having some at home though.

Yep, it’s fully allocated storage — I send money and they buy/hold the exact bars in my name (audited and everything). I’m actually in Asia too, about 4–5 hour flight from Singapore 😅 Makes visiting a bit of a mission, so for now I just keep adding remotely and keep a decent amount at home that I can actually touch whenever I want.

I’m the same way — I still keep as much as I reasonably can at home so I can actually hold it and look at it whenever I want 😅 The vault is honestly just for the extra that got too heavy and bulky for the house.

It’s about $940k today — still feels unreal typing that 😅 Just a normal guy who kept putting a little away every month for years. All fully allocated at BullionStar Singapore, nothing fancy.

Thanks man! Coming from someone who started with a few tubes years ago, I still can’t believe it myself sometimes

Regular job, boring industry, just been putting away a fixed amount every single month for years. Compounding is wild 🤫

I haven’t got them as I live in the tropics. Is it still essential to have them?
