# Best Gold Investment Products and Platforms in 2025 # A comprehensive review of the top gold investment options available today Its so overwhelming when comparing dozens of gold investment products causes analysis paralysis that keeps your money sitting idle while inflation erodes its value. However, if you start with a low-cost gold ETF in your retirement account, you'll gain immediate exposure to gold prices without premium markups or storage headaches. Gold appreciated 26% in 2025 alone, significantly outpacing traditional savings accounts earning minimal interest. If I were to estimate how long most people spend researching before their first gold purchase, I'd say three ...

I (36F) think my husband (33) might be considering leaving me. This might be long. Sorry in advance. This is throwaway account bc he’s on Reddit, too. We met fifteen years ago. Our relationship has been mostly good, with the ups and downs that come from living life, but nothing major. All things we were able to communicate and talk through. We became closer because we worked through them. I want to say I love my husband. He’s patient, makes me laugh, rubs my feet a couple times a week, shoulder rubs. Genuinely loves me. I have no complaints! I’m a teacher. That means I’m out of the house about 9 to 10 hours a day. He works full time, too, but from home. My job has me interacting...

Matt Jordan and the Ashes of Violet Dagger Part I of the Pierre Pascal Trilogy Prologue: After the Storm Somewhere on the jagged edge of Nevada, where the earth cracked like ancient vinyl and the stars hid behind black clouds, Matt Jordan stood shirtless atop a cliff. A storm brewed, but he didn’t flinch. He wore Violet’s blade around his neck, and it whispered in the wind. He missed her every second. But not like before. This grief had shape now. It had rhythm. It moved inside him like a slow song on repeat. She wasn’t a ghost anymore. She was a reason. Matt looked down at the burned-out crater where Saint Crybaby’s had once stood and whispered into the thunder: “I’m not ...

Hello! I just finished a short story tonight, and I would love ppl to read it, thanks! I appreciate you! Half the Floor Vanished Bex   The time clock beeped when Lena punched in Tuesday morning, loud enough to make her flinch. It was probably the only thing in the building programmed to remember her. She straightened her shirt, smoothed her name tag, **Lena**, as if reminding the fabric who she was, and practiced her greeting under her breath. Light smile. Warm tone. Don’t look desperate. Don’t look like you’re trying. The breakroom was already full. People laughed around a box of cheap donuts. She stepped in. “Morning.” Three heads turned with the vague, polite smi...

There is a lot to unpack with a lot of history this past year We both have argued a lot this year over many incidents. The main ones being 1. him saying I don't priorize him by planning couple trips together, while we both are in the middle of brainstorming vacations together. I even made a PowerPoint. However this came up by him when I invited and told him I was going for a stay-cation with a friend to a cabin. 2. He got upset at me coming home from a travel that the house/kitchen wasn't clean. He also said i didnt greet him in a proper way. When he came in I said I know the house is unclean and I am going to clean it. That week I had a health scare and I was under a lot of pr...

Title. I'm sick and tired of not being able to change the colors of my RGB. I tried checking on support with an expert but apparently they now have a subscription fee, which *****. So here I am. I tried uninstalling and installing both OMEN Gaming Hub and Light Studio, downloading directly from store, uninstalling and installing drivers for my keyboards, downloading Open RGB, I don't know what else to do. Help a girlie out :(

i apologize for how long this is, but i must get it off my chest and bring awareness to parents with young children about situations like these. i (17F) have been sexually assaulted so many times and for such a long time. it's draining me. first time i was violated was at merely 3 years old. i remember it vividly. i somehow ended up alone with my cousin whom my mom and grandma always tried to protect me from. and he mouthraped me. i remember clear as day how he laid me down on the floor and just.. did it. my brain blocked that memory for a very long time but it has recently resurfaced about a month or 2 ago. i told my mom, and she was devastated. she remembers when i ended up alone ...

I (M, 20) have had a rocky relationship with my mother (F, 53) since I was around 12-13. There's a lot of lore before that that I'm sure I'll get into, but around 13 is when I really realized how horrible our relationship was. I'm gonna start with some background info before getting into the asking for advice part. From what I can remember, my mother's personality has always been explosive. Whenever something seemingly minor happened in my childhood (I spilled a glass of soda at dinner, the house was messy, etc.) my mother would explode in a fit of rage. I'm talking the whole nine yards- screaming, cursing, sometimes even going as far as to break things that ha...

About two or three weeks ago I was shopping at another store (like five minutes down the road from my NHM), and as I was checking out this lady didn’t have her ID. The store’s policy doesn’t allow them to sell alcohol without checking an ID (my store does the same but IG others don’t — idk, seems risky to me). But anyways, she didn’t have the ID and this woman got ********. At first it was just annoyed bitching not at the cashier, so I was going to stay out of it. Then after about a minute of her bitching, she moved it onto cussing out the cashier. Still, I minded my business. After maybe 30 seconds of her cussing this poor cashier out, I said—loud enough to speak over her lo...

I spent around an hour on both. I didn't write any passives or perks, also way too tired to go in far depth on lore. Though I could if people ask. It's one Dps and one support with unique gimmicks! **“The Archivist Omnic” , A Living Library Built to Preserve Lost Cultures** **Core Concept** An ancient omnic designed not for war, but to **collect, store, and protect cultural knowledge**, languages, art, and history.

I met my wife when I was about 16 in fandom spaces online, and have been with her since I was 18. We got together during COVID in a long distance relationship. We got married when I was 21, partially so that I could go to school but we had been engaged before. She is my first relationship, first kiss, first everything and for a while I thought it was perfect. She's had a rough year, with family issues, job loss, health issues ect. And I've had a very complicated one because of it. I've tried to collect my thoughts on the year, but I'm a bit of a mess in the head so sorry if it's a bit rambling 1) Gave up my dream for stability While I graduated with my degree...

My mental health is in the trash and I'm having a hard time parenting my 10 month old while 2 months ppregnant. Its like sometimes I know my thinking is crazy but I cannot regulate. I think it mostly stems from I am hanging on by a thread most days. I'm still trying to figure out how to do little things while working with one baby like put away clothes, go to the store, wash my hair consistently, and eat and drink when I need to. I had a week off work and it literally felt like **** and I've never been so ready to go back to work and also so frayed and exhausted. I'm overly emotional and always tired. I feel like something is wrong with me. Normal people can live life ...

I'm a 7/365 commuting cyclist because I'm poor and don't own a car, so I rode to work this morning and rode back home in the evening around 5:30 with a detour to the store for necessities. It sure was a ride! Visibility nil with my glasses and snow blowing directly into my eyes because I was riding north bound. Best thing about riding in this kind of inclement weather is that there are far fewer drivers out on the road, and those that remain are generally driving at much slower speeds. I think the fastest a car passed me today was like 25mph, which made the ride much more pleasant and bearable honestly. Downside was that my lights both died 1 minute into the ride 🙃. Who ...

Which criteria are important in a potential partner? If you're like me, you've probably had a mental list that's been updated throughout your life. Things added, removed, reordered. I've eventually settled on the idea that very few things are actually essential, and the rest is only 'nice to have'. Here's the ones that made the cut: 1- Relationship repair - I'm looking for someone who has experienced failed relationships, reflected on them, and realized that the key to making a relationship last is to remain cooperative and positive in times of stress or conflict. My ideal partner is someone who forgive my imperfections but still patiently encourag...

My spouse and I have made a number of weekend getaways over the last couple years from Omaha, NE. The first couple times took a bit to figure out the interstate system, but I mostly had to adjust to the amount of left-side exits. The fact that people actually *use* their signals (most of the time) & stop at red lights is a nice change of pace. Despite the amount of professional sports teams, we didn't encounter a lot of "Team X is my personality" types (*There are a LOT of Rally House stores, though*) But the love is present. Heck, the minor league professional teams like KC Mavericks have their name on the home venue. Driving around, even the least developed areas ...

I met this guy on Valorant (online game) about 3-4 months ago, and we hit it off really well. I know the stereotypes around the types of people that play this game, and as much as I want to deny having feelings for someone in this scenario, I can't deny he's been in my thoughts. I have had plenty of online friends, but this is the first person I've ever felt an interest towards in this severely. He told me he had a crush on me after a few weeks of talking, and that's when I really started to think. When I met him, I was still in the midst of "talking" to another guy, one who I had met online but I found out we lived close by. That's a whole other story, but...

Angel, It's Black Friday weekend. I go about my day. I get my brew coffee from the little cafe. I buy fruit from the farmers stands. As I walk past the stores, I see the shops advertising their goods. "50% off! 75! 90!" It's all a scam. Lies! Propaganda for the money machine. The savings are pennies at best. The workers are tired and overwhelmed. The consumers are stressed and desperate. And the only people happy are the rich fat cats sitting at the top of the totem pole. Why does Christmas have to be so complicated? I think about what you told me about Jesus, how He came into the world. Trading His throne for a bed of hay. All-powerful to helpless. All-knowing t...

My family and I went to two newish bookstores in our small town down area today for the first time, and I just needed to vent about the contrasting experiences. The first bookstore was branded as a puppies and books store. First, there were no puppies, and they said it was because they serve food (a cafe). There were puppy themed rooms instead. While that’s offensive in of itself, it seems that the book selection was…a bit skewed. It was a small store generally, but the only nonfiction books on Israel revolved around the ‘Zionist colonial project’ and ‘Israel’s war of aggression’ in Gaza. Chuck Schumer’s antisemitism book was there, but draw your own conclusions from that. ...
