🔥 Is Gold Actually a Smart Investment — or Just an Overhyped Security Blanket?
This episode breaks down one of the most controversial topics in investing: whether gold really deserves a place in your portfolio.

Despite decades of advice telling investors to hold 3–10% in precious metals, the data tells a VERY different story. We dig deep into:

✨ The biggest myths about gold
 📉 Why gold underperforms stocks again and again
 💰 The hidden costs investors never account for
 📊 100-year return comparisons
 🧠 The psychology of fear, scarcity, and “safe haven” bias
 🚫 Why modern investors — especially income-focused or minimalist lifestyles — should think twice

This isn’t an attack on gold. It’s a reality check backed by history, math, and real-world data. If you’ve ever wondered whether gold is a smart hedge… or just a shiny distraction… this episode is for you.
