You are conflating insurance against fiat collapse (and preservation of purchasing power) with 'investment vehicles.'

And we see how it preserved purchasing power since 1980.

It's NOT ABOUT INVESTING (generally) with gold, it's about protecting oneself from the vagaries of fiat monetary systems.

Great, let me know when our fiat money collapses.

"Great, let me know when our fiat money collapses."

I bought a Fiat in 1972 and it collapsed in 1974. Does that count?
