<prompt> Human: I inherited 6 gold Krugerrands current value 7500 a while back. What is your opinion on keeping gold for the long run versus stock indexes over the next few decades? Gold has been on a slow decline the past couple of years and Im wondering if my Vanguard target retirement funds or something else might be a better place to park. Thoughts?  <response>: Gold is pretty much pointless as a long-term investment.
