I purchase 30 years ago a parcel of shares paid 20cents and now they are a wopping 43 cents considering that gold prices have trebled of late .i cant understand why my shares have not gone for a big leap either . The mining company seems to invest millions of dollars in exploration . Q were do they get their money from as it cant be from investors surely as you can see I am still waiting for mine to go over the magical dollar yes i know its a gamble when entering the stock market but one would of hoped for a nice bonus 30 years later
