Man, times are tough

The fall before Covid, about 7 years ago, I was buying 1oz American Gold Eagle dollars for around $1150 to 1200. It was mostly because I had never had a gold coin and had a childhood coin collection. I'd sell them for a hundred or two more and then buy more later, mostly as a hobby. The thought back then was maybe it'll hit $2000 an ounce, wouldn't that be something? $2k an ounce was interesting. $3.3k is frightening.
