I Only Buy Fake Jewelry

Why? Because they get lost, stolen or grabbed by snatchers putting my life at risk.
I know they appreciate in value because they are gold or white gold. But I regret buying real, expensive earrings then losing them a few months later.
So now I buy fake ones. If I lose them, I don't mind at all.
What about you?

@yoalldudes Here is chance of decline is price of stock but gold it is not with gold. For long term investment gold is better than stocks.

Real jewelry can also be an investment of sorts. They appreciate in value and when times get really rough, you can have it pawned or sold. It can be an heirloom passed on to family too. You just have to safe keep it and take good care of it. Those jewelries are most often reserved for special occasions and not so for every day regular wear in busy streets or crowded places.

The house of someone in my place got burned and they were able to retrieve a safe where the jewelries are kept.

More like an heirloom right. It must be precious because it reminds you of your grandmother.
