Almost another year has gone by and WoW has still been living up to its name. Wrath of the Lich King has made WoW even more popular than ever and broke their previous record in sales as well as subscription base. I myself have moved on from WoW and started playing WAR. Yet, still many of my friends play and it seems like there is nothing that will come between WoW being the biggest baddest MMO.

Enjoy your New Years and safe hunting. BTW, here’s a nice 10% coupon code “2009” from RPG Trader.

A lot of you big World of Warcraft fans horde in a bunch load of gold incase you ever need to purchase anything. In real life, most of your money is in the bank, could this be a poor investment? Well if you’re living in the US then yes that actually may be a bad idea. The interest you collect from the bank has never dropped so low due to the poor economy in the US. Ideally, you may want to buy gold instead. Gold does not lose much value and even from time to time it actually goes up.

The bank gives you a small interest, but does that even compare to the inflation? Euros and all the other currencies around the world has been gaining in value while the USD has been dipping. If you buy gold and keep it safe somewhere,  I would actually consider that to be an investment. Gold is demanded in all countries rich or poor. Monetizing it isn’t even difficult. Gold bars are wanted everywhere. Just like in the game, buy gold and hold in your special inventory somewhere. Make sure its a nice safe lock box and that noone has access to it but yourself. There are many places that you can store your precious belongings. So don’t just buy wow gold, buy real gold.
