No doubt about that at all. The kids then will be in awe of the old man who bought gold below $10,000 an oz.
There are VERY few guarantees in life. Death, taxes, and fiat currencies inflating their way towards zero are about it.

Back in 1968 I was shopping for an engagement ring for my girl. At that time, the official price of gold was $35 an oz. You could not buy it for that, though. A friend of my mom was a jeweler and he was paying $125 an oz. He said that was the REAL price, never mind the official price.
What about the girl, you ask? Well, I married her and we've been together for the last 42 years.
