The value of gold changes continuously based on how well or poor the dollar is doing. As you contemplate what you can invest in using gold, it is important you choose to make, purchase and sell gold items that will continue to make you money in the long run.

Common things you can do with gold

If you pair your jewelry piece with diamonds or other gems, the gold will continue to be worth something but the more gold that is exposed, the more it will be worth.
