<human>: I've heard that the price of gold is going to rise, and I want to invest in it. How do I go about doing this?
<bot>: The best way to invest in gold is to open a self-directed IRA or 401(k). You can then purchase physical gold bullion coins or bars through your financial institution or broker. You can also buy shares in an ETF (Exchange Traded Fund) that tracks the performance of gold. Finally, you could look into purchasing gold mutual funds or other investment vehicles such as precious metals ETFs.
