7. How does gold coin related to saving?
Gold coin is a part of saving; this is because the main purpose of saving is for future spending.
The key success for saving is self- discipline and consistency. For starting, gold bar might be something that cost very high for some people. However, gold coin is started at the lower weight. This means that you can have a good head start of gold saving at the lower amount of money. Therefore, saving of gold can be stared much earlier. For an example, if you received 30000 baht a month and you want to set aside 5000 baht monthly for gold bar saving, it will take about a year or more for you to obtain a gold bar. However, with the same amount of money set aside for saving (5000 baht) monthly, only in the first month you can already obtain a smallest size of gold coin (0.25 Baht) for saving. As such, gold coin is the faster option for gold saving or investing.
