Thread on why consider SGB bonds vs physical gold this year-
Big Advantage - SGB offers 2.50% per annum interest. It will be credited to your bank account once every 6 months.
Physical gold sits ideal, gold bonds earn you money.
Keeping gold safely is one of the major challenges that people have to face when buying gold.
However with SGB, gold is safe in a vault under Government surveillance.
Your bond can be kept in Demat format.
Checking the purity while buying Physical Gold is a common problem but investing in SGB saves you from having to go through the trouble of checking purity as it is being issued by the Government and each unit you buy is backed by 99.9% pure 24-carat gold.
One of the lesser-known advantages of Sovereign Gold Bonds is that they can be hypothecated for taking loans which makes it equivalent if not better than buying physical gold.
It is a good opportunity for investors who can broaden and diversify their portfolio by investing in these SGB.
Just be aware of the lack of liquidity. If you need to cash out in less than 5yrs, then avoid this!
GOI has exempt capital gains tax on redepmtion of SGB at the end of 8 years. Any capital gains arising at the time of redemption will be entirely tax-free.
However, the interest earned is taxable. But not TDS will be deducted.

Great article from @AsheSchow. I lived thru the 'Satanic Panic' of the 1980's/early 1990's asking myself "Has eveyrbody lost their GODDAMN MINDS?!"
The 3 big things that made the 1980's/early 1990's surreal for me.
1) Satanic Panic - satanism in the day cares ahhhh!
2) "Repressed memory" syndrome
3) Facilitated Communication [FC]
All 3 led to massive abuse.
"Therapists" -and I use the term to describe these quacks loosely - would hypnotize people & convince they they were 'reliving' past memories of Mom & Dad killing babies in Satanic rituals in the basement while they were growing up.
Other 'therapists' would badger kids until they invented stories about watching alligators eat babies dropped into a lake from a hot air balloon. Kids would deny anything happened for hours until the therapist 'broke through' and 'found' the 'truth'.
FC was a movement that started with the claim severely handicapped individuals were able to 'type' legible sentences & communicate if a 'helper' guided their hands over a keyboard.
For three years I have wanted to write an article on moral panics. I have collected anecdotes and similarities between today\u2019s moral panic and those of the past - particularly the Satanic Panic of the 80s.

Today I want to prove that Mr Pool smile faces mean XRP and price increase. In Ripple_Crippler, previous to Mr Pool existence, smile faces were frequent. They were very similar to the ones Mr Pool posts. The eyes also were usually a couple of "x", in fact, XRP logo. 3/*
The smile XRP-eyed face also appears related to the Moon. XRP going to the Moon. 4/*
And smile XRP-eyed faces also appear related to Egypt. In particular, to the Eye of Horus. https://t.co/i4rRzuQ0gZ 5/*
