    Correct; you can check prices here http://coinmarketcap.com/

    yennus mentioned a couple good places to trade, I also like https://buyabitcoin.com.au/ and https://sellabitcoin.com.au/ I used them recently to buy and sell and was very simple and is quoted in Australian Dollars

    Also getting back to your original question if I had to choose a 'company' I would probably pick ASX:NCM Newcrest Mining

    I wouldn't buy any gold or gold stocks, at least wait until the daily or weekly RSI to come back down. Has had a too strong of a run so more likelihood of dropping than repeating its recent gains. Will be on more more people radar now (even though I haven't seen any MSM reports saying gold is up almost 20% since 1 Jan) I'll be buying gold stocks around the next dip for sure, not now. I haven't been buying goldies except LSR punt but my Lithium stocks I've been buying over last six months have done okay.

    With 10K, I'd probably put at least a couple of thousand away in stored non-perishable food. If you're smart - and disciplined - and buy stuff that's on special (loss leaders, etc) you should be able to make a return of at least 50% on your money for stuff you're going to be buying anyway.

    I'd keep a couple of thousand in cash (no return effectively) as emergency money, and use the rest to buy the more rare Lego sets and sit on them for 6-12 months before flipping them.

    I was looking at AGO last week, still thinking about putting a bit into it. Have a few on my radar so hard to decide. Might just spread a bit in each.

    I hold AGO but it's my most risky investment. It has huge potential for upside if they can keep it together until iron ore turns around.

    The highs for my picks so far:

    SLR - 0.29 -> 0.35 (20.68%)
    SXY - 0.14 -> 0.21 (50%)
    SHJ - 0.64 -> 0.81 (26.56%)
    AGO - 0.013 -> 0.016 (23.07%)
