500 yuan may be too few at first. Personally, I suggest you deposit it in the bank 1 year to 1 year and a half. Invest in gold again. Now gold is around 165 yuan 1 gram. I feel that the risk of gold is not too great.

But to invest in gold, we should always pay attention to the market, and there is no investment that does not require effort to do research. No investment is completely risk free.

If you don't manage your money, you will be ignored when you are old. You have a plan, come on!
