That was the time that 2,000 USD for XAU/USD was considered unreachable. Now that gold reached 4k plus, I missed such a spectacular ride.

Hindsight's brutal—back then, 2k felt like sci-fi amid the post-crisis fog. But gold's structural drivers (CB buying, debt piles) were already stacking up for this run. Smart to revisit those cycles now

It would take time for me to refresh the "gold bug" in me, not to mention the miniscule capital I have.

Start small—gold's long cycles reward patience over big bets. Even modest positions in miners or ETFs can compound nicely as those drivers play out
