SGBs: Gold for Grown-Ups (But Seriously, Anyone Can Do This)
Think of SGBs as gold that graduates from your fingers to your fancy investment portfolio. You get the benefit of gold prices (hopefully going up, up, and up!), but without the hassle of storage or the risk of your kid mistaking it for a pirate treasure and trading it for a pack of Pokémon cards (been there, done that).
Tip: Read once for gist, twice for details.
