Broadcaster Kim Gura struck it rich with gold investing thanks to advice from his remarried wife.
In the video "What is Kim Gura's secret to tripling profits with gold?" on the YouTube channel Grigura, published on the 18th, Kim Gura revealed the story of earning hundreds of millions of won in revenue from a gold investment he started by chance five years ago.
Kim Gura recalled, "Five years ago I went to a gold exchange for a web variety show shoot. At that time they said gold looked good so I bought about 100 million won. Because I had to pay 10% value-added tax in advance, I actually spent 110 million won," and he added, "Back then the gold price wasn't rising sharply, so it wasn't easy to make revenue."
He explained that he purchased 1 kilogram of gold and a 350 gram scrap, saying, "A few years ago when gold prices rose a lot it reached the 200 million won range and I considered selling, but my wife said, 'You have money, why sell it? Just leave it,'" and he laughed, "Honestly, she's better than me at financial matters, but I thought women might have a sense for this."
After that the gold price continued to rise, and when Kim Gura checked recent prices he said, "Gold went up to $4,000 per ounce. Now that I calculate it, it has become 340 million won," unable to hide his surprise.
When experts hearing this joked, "Then you should give your sister-in-law 100 million won," Kim Gura drew laughter by replying "No" with his characteristically firm expression.
Meanwhile, Kim Gura remarried a non-celebrity 12 years his junior in 2020 and had his second daughter in Sept.
