i normally bring pounds in hand on my trips home and convert them into gold at an agreed rate which is normally higher than the doviz rate-the currency dealer owns the gold dealership and makes his money on the normal gold deal(about 2pc)--gold avoids the exchange trap of the pound and lira rates-it has proved always inflation proof and very easily traded-i think i will just watch the pound and lira rate til it reaches 2,5 to a gbp--if it ever gets there! if not fill my pockets with cash and feel rich on my flight!!

Hasn´t gold fallen 10% in the last two months?

but it gained about 20pc from august to january-i made about 30pc in 14 months and sold my last holding in august just before it went up again--it peaks and then plateaus but continues to climb year on year--i sold at 1oz 1450tl then it shot up to 1800tl and now it is about 1620 and plateauing-i would be tempted at 1600tl but dont quote me!-turks either buy gold or property at the moment as safe havens against the risks of their currency.-it used to be dollars as well.
