Some people are buying gold, but most of them are definitely not young people. The fundamental reason is that gold can escape regulation.
Take an example, please note that it is an example. My brother works in engineering. He said that it is easy to get projects now, but it requires an advance payment. The advance payment is not a big deal, but the checkout is very difficult, so usually they will give 10% as an introduction fee. For example, building a road costs 2.4 billion, and so on. How much of it will go into the pockets of the signing leaders of departments at all levels? If all this money is kept at home in the form of cash, it can probably fill a 100-square-meter house. How about depositing it in a bank? The online checking and control system can now provide feedback on marital status, real estate (in this city), movable properties, bank deposits (all over the network)... the basic functions of checking personal assets are now available. I think the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Committee system with Shang Fang Baojian may be more powerful.
Run overseas? That's impossible. Since the epidemic, the travel of public employees has been comprehensively tightened, and the scope has been expanded to contract personnel and retired cadres, which means that you cannot leave the country even after you retire.
Asset transfer? The gap is getting tighter. To be honest, foreign exchange reserves may not be as good as they say. At least foreign exchange controls are getting stricter. For individuals who want to transfer funds overseas in large quantities, the risk is too high and the risk of failure is too high.
In this case, gold is the most suitable asset for money laundering. It is free from system supervision, maintains its value, and is easy to hide.
Don't mess with young people for whatever you do. How much money do young people have? A gram of gold costs 600 yuan. If you earn 10,000 yuan a month, how many grams can you buy for the leftovers from eating, drinking, and defecating?
