How this works
Why subtract inflation?+
A higher number today doesn't mean you're richer. We deflate today's value by cumulative inflation to show what your money is really worth in purchase-year terms.
What is break-even?+
The value your gold must reach today just to match the purchasing power of what you originally spent.
How accurate are the figures?+
Historical gold prices (WGC/LBMA) and inflation (IMF/World Bank) are precise. The historical exchange rate is estimated, so high-inflation markets may vary 5–15%.
Why does workmanship matter?+
Jewellery includes a making charge you pay at purchase but rarely recover on resale, which lowers the real return.
