Your gold isn't compounding (and it should be)

I teach business owners about compounding constantly.

Invest your profits. Let them grow. Reinvest the growth.

That's how wealth multiplies.

But here's what I've noticed:

When it comes to gold, people abandon this principle completely.

They buy gold. Store it. Let it sit.

No growth. No compounding. Nothing.

That's not wealth building. That's wealth storing.

And here's the problem with that:

While your gold sits earning 0%, inflation erodes purchasing power at 3-7% annually.

You bought gold to protect against inflation.

But if it earns nothing, inflation still wins over time.

Let me show you the math…

$100,000 in gold today.

After 10 years at 3% inflation, that gold needs to be worth $134,392 just to maintain purchasing power.

Did your gold appreciate 34% while sitting in storage?

Maybe. Maybe not.

But what if your gold was actually growing in ounces?

Not dollar value, but actual gold ounces.

That's what my friends at Monetary Metals discovered.

They found a way to make gold compound.

Earn a return paid in gold itself.

Your ounces grow. Month after month. Without adding a single dollar of new capital.

Your 100 ounces of gold can potentially earn 2% annually in gold.

After 10 years? That's 121.9 ounces.

You haven't added capital. Your gold just compounded.

Now you have an asset that:
✓ Protects against inflation (it's still gold)
✓ Compounds over time (ounces increase)
✓ Works while you sleep (passive growth)

This is the difference between preserving wealth and multiplying it.

Most gold owners accept 0% returns because "gold is insurance."

But insurance that grows is better than insurance that sits.
