Why I think 2026 is the year the Average person in Taiwan needs to look at 24k Gold"

I’ve read a little through the finance discussions here, and I notice a pattern, most people in Taipei are either 100% in the stock market (AI/Semiconductors) or just keeping cash in TWD savings accounts.

Coming from the Dubai trade market, I see a different perspective. Gold isn’t just a luxury for the wealthy,it’s the ultimate insurance for the regular person. With global gold prices hitting record highs this year, it’s no longer just about jewelry—it’s about protecting your hard-earned savings from losing its value. I’m curious,for those who have never considered gold, is it because it feels ‘old fashioned,’ or does it just seem too complicated to buy safely? I’m happy to explain how the modern global trade works for regular savers.

Gold is so last year, Silver is where it’s at!

Ultimate insurance is a farm off the grid (own power, water, septic tank) and guns to protect it. Throw in a bunker if you’re rich. With this almost nothing going on in the world can affect you.

Embrace the local culture and wear a 24 ct gold chain as thick as a baby’s arm?
