NEW YORK (Commodity Online): EmpireGoldBuyers.com, an expert in the field of buying and selling gold, is advising consumers that now is the time to sell gold. While copper and soybeans have been past winners on the trading room floor, today's investors are finding fiscal rewards in pure gold as it climbed to a record high above $1,040 per ounce on Tuesday, October 6th topping the previous record of $1,033.90 in March 2008. On Thursday, gold has climbed further to 1040 levels.

"As the value of the dollar continues to weaken, we're seeing the value of gold continue to increase," says EmpireGoldBuyers.com founder Gene Furman. "That means a lot to all Americans who are considering selling gold for cash."

For those consumers looking to turn their gold holdings into greenbacks, this welcome news comes at an opportune time. With unemployment rates continuing to rise and job outlooks looking uncertain, gold sales offers a solid opportunity for people to add some dollar signs to the bank account.
