As long as I can remember .. my mother who was constantly invited for weddings, baby showers, birthdays, anniversaries and any kind of promotion function, never failed to buy gold as presents. Be it gold chain, an anklet, a bracelet, a pair of earrings or just about anything gold, she said.. one never goes wrong, when you buy gold. Everyone will appreciate it, gold never changes in color or in weight.. nor in its value. So with this in mind, I too buy alot of gold for presents for just about an occasions, I am pretty sure that my asians buddies will agree with me.
