A form of business growing in power and importance nowadays is the trade of precious metals and ore. This branch seems to be attracting hordes of customers who either want to Sell gold they own and receive cash for gold or exchange it for something else. The best offers on the market reach up to 1500$ per ounce! Somebody tell me it is really worth it - just a piece of shining metal that is extracted from underground somewhere in Africa is worth more than the average monthly wage of many workers all around the world, even in the richest countries. Try to look for another thing that is worth a thousand dollars per ounce... The prices the market offers when you want to Sell gold are different. They vary dependent on the time and place. The USA average cash for gold price is 1100-1200 dollars per ounce. The number shapes a bit different in Asia, where the worth falls to 1000 and below. The number decreases even further if we take under consideration Africa - the continent where there are the most gold beds and the only thing worth doing is exporting the good oversea. There would be no future for cash for gold trade on so to say European conditions in Africa.
