That's a truly astounding infographic! I bought a used car a few years ago with 2 ounces of gold that I bought at $600 an ounce in the early 2000's and had appreciated to $1100 an ounce. At the time I didn't see how the gold could go much higher. Of course it went way up. But hey I was happy with the capital gain on those 2 ounces of gold. :)
