    Why don't you buy a diamond like Liz Taylor's one, or a 5 star villa in a warm climate, or a cottage in the Hamptons? Gold is so common now.

    Bit of a shift from bullion bars to £20s worth off ebay.

    A bullion bar is about 70 pounds, which is 32,000 grams
    So £20x32,000 = £64,000

    You could probably get them a bit cheaper if you don't buy them in bits and pieces
