Had a coworker that bought it from a pawn shop on lunch break. Every few weeks we'd have to stop so he could buy a.bit. He always had to find someone to watch his gold stash while deployed because he was afraid his house would get robbed. Never had to do that with my stock portfolio and index funds and they've out performed metals.

I imagine the markup on pawn shop metals is very high. The site I linked has things that aren't far from spot price. Relatively speaking.

I also keep mine in a safety deposit.
