What a funny experienced the last few days, I went to to the old market to buy shoes for the two old ladies. After that, I passed by a certain gold store. Remembering the market Friday initiative of
, I tried my window shopping. To be honest, I don like wearing or buying gold. Golds in Saudi Arabia are 24 karats and they have a lot of styles. I want to show it to
, my beautiful, generous, and gorgeous woman in the hive.
Gold of Saudi Arabia
When I arrived in Saudi Arabia last 1998, the price of gold was 30 Saudi Riyal per gram(3.75 Saudi Riyal is 1USD) It means 1 gram was below one dollar before and this time after 2 and a half decades, the price soared to 230Saudi Riyal per gram. I felt regret why I didn't invest gold before but I stayed calm because I had no extra money before. My boss gave me golds as a gift before but when I spent vacation, everything was given to my family. Now, I have no gold.
When I saw the tag price in every set, it made my eyes round. So expensive that I couldn't buy like that for just a display to my body.
These are bangles and the prices were so high, so terrible prices.
These are different styles of rings. I can afford it if I want to buy it, my inner self refused.
It is affordable but the pendant needs an expensive necklace. You are all just for my eyes.
Maybe, if I want, bracelets are affordable as a remembrance, I will buy them before I go home for good.
A lot of different styles and art of the golds.
These thick sets of gold are the most expensive of all. It is usually given by the rich family for choosing the bride for their son. Imagine, so amazing price! It cost almost 200 thousand Saudi Riyal. How much million would be the value in my currency? 100 thousand is 1.4 million in peso, so approximately it cost 2 million-plus.😊😊😊🙄🙄🙄🤫🤫🤫. So lucky to the chosen bride to be who will receive a set of gold like this.
This is one of the basic reasons why some Saudi men had no wife or sometimes, they choose women from a foreign land. I read in a newspaper that there are so many nationals that are not getting married because of the system.
For me, I don't want gold in exchange to my heart and love. I need a genuine heart with love, who will love me just as I am without giving me gold or money in return. Love from a man with a genuine heart for my genuine heart who will love him tenderly. I am against to the system of spending money or gold just to have you in return. God gives and created us for free but selling our soul and body? If they have golds, it's a bonus not an obligation just to show the people that you give and after the wedding, divorce follows up everywhere.
I heard a story that Saudi Arabia has billion tons of gold, a mountain of gold that is cordoned and mined with selected and trusted people. The place is well guarded and equipped with high technology system. I just heard it and I think it is true. Gold and gas are their main source of income. They are rich country who give satisfying benefits to their people free education in college, sending scholarship to their students abroad, giving pension to a divorce womens and poor people.
That's all for today and it is also my blog for #beautiful and #sublime sunday initiated by and
. This is how beautiful and sublime to have golds if we have enouh money as you wish to have it fir investment. Visiting the place lately was a nice experienced early this year 2022. I had a lot of beautiful memories and a sublime feeling when we were staying in the old house of my employer nearest to that market.
