My friend gave cash for gold

My friends can act really strange at times and I really mean it. They sometimes have the dumbest ideas on earth but I love them anyway, they are my mates. Jerry, is a crazy human being in general. This guys is really twisted, he likes doing crazy stuff. In fact, he loves extreme sports and he does parachuting and base jumping and mountain climbing and all this kind of stuff. I had never been on any escapade with him as he freaks me out. Those things are certainly not things for me. I am a relatively calm person and I don"t like doing crazy things. The most extreme thing I have done in my life was jumping to a swimming pool from 5 meters. So we can certainly say that I am not a extreme person and I do not really like risk like Jerry does. Few days ago Jerry came to me and said that he had bought some gold. I had no idea why did my friend gave cash for gold however he then enlightened me and told me that he has done it because gold is a good form of investment. I was quite shocked with this as I never perceived Jerry as a serious person. He always was a little bit of a clown to be, however, now I do know that Jerry actually has plans for the future, wow, cash for gold to make an investment? Quite a good idea actually, isn"t it? Maybe I will do the same. Maybe I will spend some of my cash for gold.
