I'm pretty new to self-investing and I've been looking at different options lately such as stocks and crypto. I came across a video about gold and looked a little more at the charts. Is there any reason for someone to not just take a large chunk of their wealth and put most, if not all of it into gold? As I'm looking at different charts, gold looks extremely stable and steadily increasing with time, very significantly so in the past few years. Is there any reason not to do this? It seems very safe and profitable to my uneducated eyes.
