Invest or save?

I have mentioned here once that our company has launched a financial stewardship campaign in order to assist the employees not just in saving but also in investing.Apart from the franchising, I have learned that one of the most brilliant ideas is gold investing not just in pieces of jewelry but the real gold in bullions, ingots and coins.You could actually have American Eagle gold coins which are legal tender in the USA having a $50 value. These coins weigh 10 ounces and are available for personally delivery only so you could be assured that they will be handed to you safely.
Investments in precious metals will surely hype up your savings as time goes by.
